Just put the dogs in the kennels. No noise either way.

Boy, I would hate to trust my dog to such a device. Dogs' ears have a lot of
wax; sticking something in the ear could impact that wax and cause a lot of
problems.

If your dog has a lot of wax in his ears, you should look at doing some
preventative maintenance. There should not be a huge amount of wax; no more
than the usual lubricating/cleaning amount.

We have had great success using boric acid powder (easily found in any drug
store) to clear up ear infections that cause a large wax build-up in our
dog's ears. We learned about it from our vet.

As for their barking causing hearing damage to themselves, dogs, humans, and
any variety of other mammals (and probably other animals) have a built-in
"noise suppressor" that prevents a problem with that. You can see this
easily yourself. Yell as loudly as you can, and then have a friend yell as
loudly as they can near you. His yell will sound MUCH louder than yours.

I think that's not from any noise suppression effects as much as the
directionality of the transmitter, though the effect is the same. Put your
friend's ear right next to your ear, and THEN have him yell as loudly as he
can. Compare that to yours.

I've done it. Have you?

The noise IS attenuated.

I've done it. [(having a friend shout with his near near mine)] Have you?

No. I'm speculating. If you've done it, I'll take your word for it.
