Coghlan'sBear Bell with Magnetic Silencer

Really liked the size of the bell and the sound it makes which does not appear to bother our dog. We attach it to his collar and he happily accepts the noise. Would recommend.

Already have one, but got this as a spare! The Velcro fastener becomes less effective over time. So rather than keep putting on and taking off, I have a collar just for the bell! And slid it through!It gives me a little more confidence in letting my hound off, obviously within a reasonable distance I can hear him! But part of thinks that it would also alert the local wildlife (deer’s) to his presence!

This bell is really handy and can be heard from a reasonable distance. I would put a couple of stitches in it if you dog loves the brambles, just to hold it in place.

This is a nice sturdy bell and the tinkle is not too high-pitched so it doesn't hurt my sensitive ears. I bought it so that I could hear where my dog is when I can't see her, but it didn't work very well for that purpose. I stop being able to hear the bell long before she is out of sight, and on her return I usually see her before I hear the bell.She wears a reflective jacket so that I can spot her in the distance or between trees and bushes and that is so useful that I wouldn't let her off the lead without it. However, I only used the bell a couple of times before realising that it didn't do the job I wanted it to.It was designed to alert wildlife to the presence of the dog and I am sure that it does that very well, the ears of bears (not in UK of course) and other animals being sharper than mine and it is well made so I have given 5 stars.

Quite difficult to hear when it thick brush, rather large. Not exactly a bell sound more a rattle. Magnetic silencer a good idea.

Ideal for in the woods once the magnet to stop it ringing is put out the way

These are the best dog bells on the market. Have bought in every colour. They sound like a Swiss cow bell and are fabulous for a few reasons : Secure velcro fastener that stays on. Warning to other animals (all cat owners take note pls put bells on your cats so birds can escape their teeth. Great if dog is off sniffing in bushes you can hear him. They look fab but I don't have them just for appearance - these are necessary for a multitude of reasons. 10/10 - shall keep buying.

I would recommend these if you have an active dog. I purchased two at the end of November for my Spaniel, as he has a tendency to turn a walk into a ramble. Unfortunately within two weeks both have become detached during different walks and have been lost. The product is good in principle it is just the velcro collar attachment is not robust enough. I'll be going back to falconry bells and a cable tie going forward as in my experience they last for about 12 months.
