Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This collar is a fantastic aid for training dogs, as long as you read the manual. It is imperative that you know what you are doing and only utilize the stimulation in appropriate conditions. I also advise testing out the stimulation levels on your arm so you know what kind of shock your dog is getting on their neck. I appreciate the extra levels because I never want to use too much power, but the operation of this particular transmitter can take some getting used to. You want to find a stimulation level that gets your dogs attention, but the dog SHOULD NOT yelp or even make any noise. (The manual for the old one suggested that after your dog was used to wearing the collar - on and off for two weeks with no stimulation - you can hide somewhere out of sight and test the lowest level of stimulation. If their ears perk up, or they cock their head, then you have a baseline.)
As for the product itself, this COMBO model's transmitter is a little more confusing than the BASIC or UPLAND models, as it has more levels of stimulation (and as such one more dial on the front.) My older model had just two buttons and a single dial. In this case, the added complexity coincides with added features, and as such, is excusable. As with my previous Tri-Tronics collar, it is basically bulletproof. You can submerge it, take it to the beach, do whatever you want to it, and it will keep on working.
One gripe is that the transmitter is not rechargeable - instead it takes 9v batteries - but some people might prefer that, so it is not worth taking off a star. All told, I highly recommend this collar on the condition that you take it upon yourself to learn how to use it properly. If you use it responsibly, you will see marked results. (If you do not, you will have a scared dog that simply stands next to you in terror when you put the collar on...)
