Coghlan's Bear 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.

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.

Worked well for the 3/4times i used it. Good size and loud enough to hear my dog when she ran off. Sadly she came back from a run without it. I think it must have got caught on a branch and pulled off as i felt the Velcro was quite strong. Going to buy one that clips on this time.

One of my Whippets murdered a squirrel. Never wishing to go through that again I bought them these bear bells. They look huge but my dogs didn’t notice them at all. They are loud enough for creatures nearby to hear but not so loud on walks that they are intrusive. Mine were oblivious to the noise. Great purchase and good for the wild life.

Use this on my dog for training, fastening is really secure and bell is loud enough to hear but not to loud to distract the dog (or annoy me), when not using and have it in my pocket the magnet is handy as whilst it doesn't completely stop the sound it dampens it to a rattle. Bell is also light.

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

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.

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.
