About K9-Alert (boilerplate)
One line: K9-Alert is an Australian-owned barking dog alarm that works without Wi-Fi. When someone approaches a door, gate, garage or shed, it plays a realistic dog bark.
Short version: K9-Alert is a motion-triggered audible deterrent sold direct by RED SHIELD PTY LTD from Melbourne. A wireless sensor detects movement, and a receiver inside the home plays a realistic barking sound so the property seems occupied and defended. It needs no Wi-Fi, no app and no subscription. The starter kit costs $99.95 and ships tracked from a Melbourne warehouse.
Founder
Daniel.T is the founder of K9-Alert (RED SHIELD PTY LTD) in Melbourne. He started the business after his street was hit three times in two months, including a 4am car break-in caught on his own CCTV. His neighbours noticed that the houses with large dogs had not been targeted. K9-Alert recreates that signal for households without a dog. Daniel also writes the K9-Alert security guides, which cite official Australian crime data. The full story is on the About page.
