Best e collar

I don't ever write reviews for anything, but this e-collar deserves it. And I'm also doing this for bird dog owners as a guy who has used many other types of collars like Garmin, SportDog, DT Systems, etc. This is probably the most efficient and easy to use collar I've messed with, and other products can't touch the sensitivity that comes with it. I always test the stim on myself just to feel what the dog will feel, and it's true, the stim is softer and not harsh like other collars. Being able to adjust the "bump" is huge, because (specifically if you're a bird dog owner) we all know chasing and other intense distractions take a special level of jump as opposed to basic training. And if your dog is chasing, or you need to adjust the level on the go, you can raise the level of stim while holding down the continuous. So having that ability is great. Tone: Personally, I love that the collar goes to continuous after 1.2 seconds, basically removing a step of having to switch to another button so reenforcing different commands depending on the number of tones is much easier. Overall, this collar is awesome, ergonomically, functionally, everything. I'll probably sell my garmin rig and use this for my pointer. (purchased for a boykin spaniel)

Top quality product. Everything works as described. Had no problems getting wet.

The collars are awesome! Great quality! The only issue is that the battery life seemed to be slightly shortened fairly after the purchase. Other than that, it is great on our dogs' skin and they work as expected. I would highly recommend purchasing this! Oh, we really also like that we can program two dogs onto one remote! That's a perk!

I didn’t want to resort to e collar. I did lots of research and found This to be the best for what I needed for my minpin. I’ve been using it for high distraction areas, leave it, greeting people, recall, and heal. She is very excitable when seeing peoole and dogs This is helping her. Her heal is amazing on walks now loose leash walking without this collar with her harness. I want a well mannered pup as well as allowed to be a dog and run free. I would not recommend buying this without learning how to use properly. Hire a trainer or watch the training videos so you do not harm your pup. It’s a great tool as well as many rewards, positive reinforcement and only use when general commands are mastered. It’s not to just shock your pup because it isn’t behaving. It’s for training purposes. It works great easy to use, stays charged for a long time. I like the option of vibrate or beep and the Boost. I need the boost when she is in high distraction areas with lots of people and dogs But we did six months of training before I used this. I was encouraged to use a prong collar but that wasn’t a good option for me because her neck is so tiny this was much better. Has a light as well and flashing Light for night time.

It's been just over a year since I've had this e collar and it's still working perfectly. Even though I drop it in ponds, lakes, and yes even deer/cow pies. Out of the 100 levels you choose from both of my dogs are under level 15 for their working levels. (To find your dogs working level you start at 0 in a no distraction area and work your way up until you find the level where they barely notice it. So if they are yelping/screaming/jumping the collar is way too high or you bought a Chinese knock off collar.) mind you I don't physically feel the collar on my body until around level 11. We only use the e collar to grab their attention, that's it. So if a dog see's a deer or another dog and recall fails they are "tapped" with a stimulation to remind them of "hey mom is calling you, go back to her." Or you can put it on continuous mode. Which is what we use. It means that weird feeling on their neck does not go away until they are turned around and coming back to me. Then the pressure is released. We never use it at levels where they are yelping or jumping. The only reason we are turning it up is because recall as failed and for their safety they need to come back when I call them no matter the distraction. The highest level they have seen is 35. Recall failed and they were chasing a deer. I tapped them once with that level and they both turned around and came back. I have felt the e collar on my hands, arms, and even neck all the way up to 100. It's a muscle stimulus. It's not causing physical pain or burning. Its the same technology as a TENS unit. It's sending a message to your brain that this is a weird feeling and I don't like it. For us it means we have reliable recall or matter the situation we are in. I rarely have to use the remote anymore. This is our insurance policy for them off leash. We first train positively then layer an e collar to proof the command. Once I felt our e collar I was amazed how it felt like the TENS unit at my chiropractor. I actually have used it on my back knots and my husbands back knots before. What's interesting is on some dogs the vibrate is more punishing to them then taking a tap of the stim. The vibrate is so intense and powerful to a dog that some will freak it or blow through it. Camber blows through it but Akira will yelp and even jump. So we never use it since she finds the vibrate aversive. Now not every dog needs an e collar but in the right hands on the right dog it can really help with recall and other basic commands like heeling or gun dogs. I'm very happy I opened my mind up to this type of training. I was turned down by 3 positive dog trainers with Camber that said at the end of training that he will never be trusted off leash around dogs and wildlife.... now? We spend 99% of the time off leash. They are both happy to be off leash and their quality of life has skyrocketed. Off leash hiking is the best thing for my dogs. I cried the first time Camber was off leash this past summer. To see him running around a field happy as can be was amazing to me. We tried every other method in the book to train recall when a distraction is present but no hot dog or whatever the treats was would get him back. I could slap him in the face with steak and he would still ignore me because chasing a deer is a higher value then the cookie I have for him. This tool in the wrong hands can cause some major damage.... but in the right hands and with proper training this tool will help your dog bloom and enjoy that off leash freedom that they crave and want. I don't think every dog needs an e collar but this was our last resort for them to get that off leash freedom and I don't regret one second or penny of it. No matter how much and often I train my dogs they are still dogs and have instincts. Sometimes training will become second and nature will take over. I want to be as prepared as possible to ensure my dogs can be off leash but safe. The moment we see people/wildlife/dogs anything or anyone they are put back on leash for everyones safety and we move to the side of the trail. Think of it like this, you are an awesome driver right? You obey the laws of the road and consider yourself a defensive driver. But you still wear I seat belt because you cannot control the people driving around you. You cannot control the deer that jumps out in front of your car at night and you hit it. The seat belt will save your life. Just like an e collar could save your dogs life!
