I'm trying to make a small circuit that emits a sound that is annoying
to a barking dog but can't be heard by people (This is for my dog, to
get him to stop barking at the neighbor's children). So I guess I have
a few questions:
1. I've heard that 25-35 KHz is the ideal range to try with dogs, so
what kind of speaker would I need to buy? Should I just look up any
small speaker that has that range and try that? I would obviously have
to see if it had any effect on the dog before I built the rest of the
circuit, so it would have to have a range of around 30-40 feet and moderately loud.
2. I'm thinking of using a Voice activated switch such as
https://www.electronics-lab.com/projects/sensors/025/index.html . A
dog's bark can be up to 105db I have read. Good idea? bad idea?
Thanks.
