Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have no problem with this product. It is very well made, and works exactly the way you will want it to. I only want to add a caution to be very careful using this with a rescue dog with an unknown past. I tried it with mine, following directions and being very careful not to overdo it. I tested it on myself more than I actually used it on him. He was totally freaked out. He did what I wanted while on the leash, but the moment we were done training and I took the leash off, he bolted and wouldn't come back to me. My girlfriend had to go find him for me finally, because it was getting dark and he was still afraid of me. We've patched things up, and I'll probably never put that collar on him again. He was a rescue dog the we got at about a year old, and I can only guess that something bad in his unknown past makes this the wrong way to go with him. I felt absolutely terrible for days.
Nonetheless, I've seen this used successfully on other dogs, so as long as you follow instructions and be certain that your shock level is noticeable but not painful to your dog, it could be a good tool. Just watch your dog very carefully as you use it. If he's looking nervous or overly submissive, take the collar off (after you get him in the house,) and reevaluate. A dog with an unknown history may have been very abused, and will find even the lowest settings traumatic.
Still, good device, works like it should.
