Educator By E-Collar Technologies Mini 1/2 Mile Range Remote Dog Training Collar

This ecollar is okay. But the biggest issue is that the buttons don’t always work on the first press. I have to press multiple times to get the light to come on, for example. It’s frustrating, especially since this collar is not cheap at all. I’d expect an ecollar’s buttons to work on the first press for this price

This collar has turned our overly excited Goldendoodle into a well-behaved little boy. We were struggling with our boy getting mouthy when excited and getting into things he wasn’t supposed to. Within a day of using this collar we started noticing results. We haven’t even had to use the stimulation function - the vibration (so far) has been enough to get his attention and deter his behavior. He is more loving than ever and just has happy as he ever has been. I’m not saying that all his behavioral issues have been fixed, but there’s definitely a huge improvement! The collar itself has a good battery life and many different size adjustment options.

We have a 1yr old golden and he has become a completely different dog off the leash. This is an absolute game changer. I’m sure some of it has to do with training but it’s been amazing. We have confidence to take him off leash anywhere and especially around little kids where he used to get over excited and sometimes go too far. Would recommend this to anyone 10/10 times

We purchased this device in January 2020, it is now July 2020 for our 120lbs Great Pyrenees as she had a habit of bolting towards the road and we were afraid she would get hit by a car. In the entire time we had it she never cried out in pain when it was used, we primarily used the vibration, but when she escaped we had used the shock button. The device malfunctioned today and electrocuted my poor dog. I stuck my hand in between the collar and her neck while I attempted to get it off and it was repeatedly shocking. The remote wasn't being touched and the red light did not indicate use. It was horrible and very upsetting. We are returning this and will never use one again.

We have a NAID puppy with a mind of her own and a rambunctious spirit. She could not be controlled off leash and difficult to handle on leash. A neighbor with a Husky told me about this product, he liked its versatility, so we got it. It's been a god send. Her coat is very thick so getting her to feel the shock requires a high setting, even with the longer contacts, so I reserve that feature for emergencies. The vibration feature has kept her perfectly under control and I feel better that she’s not always getting shocked. Great product either way. Highly recommend.

I have littermates and was struggling with recall when they were both together. separately I was able to recall them, but when they are together they would rather play with each other then listen to me. I trained another one of my dogs with e-collar for behavioral issues (dog aggression and reactivity), so I bought 2 more e-collars for the littermates. In 2 days, my problems were "fixed". Yesterday I was able to recall them both off from a deer. Life saver!!

This collar is 100% a life saver if you have a stubborn dog. I have a 2 year old Siberian husky who refuses to come when called. She has made me late to work countless times because she wouldn’t come inside. Aside from not coming when called while in our fenced yard she is an escape artist. She will dig out of the fence or squeeze herself through small openings when she finds one or makes one. Luckily anytime she’s gotten out we have found her but Im so worried she will get out and be hit by a car or hurt in some way. I worked with her on a level 6 and she now recalls so well! I can let her outside to play whenever she wants knowing she will come back! We are going to try her off leash at my This collar is 100% a life saver if you have a stubborn dog.

I'm so glad that I purchased this item. I was not sure if an e-collar was the path for us, but now that we have it, it has proved invaluable. We use this exclusively for off-leash recall. We have a hound mix with a strong nose who could not be trusted off leash even for a minute (despite a year of training and her improving in every other category). We adopted her at 1.5 years old, it took only one incident of her slipping out of the door and almost getting hit by a truck for us to have a strict on-leash policy. We started out by using low levels of stim, but then realized that she responded more readily to the vibrate setting. Within 1 training session using the vibrate setting, everything I'm so glad that I purchased this item.

So, try out the vibrate setting if low-level stim is not working well for you. She now comes when called by voice about 95% of the time. About 4% of the time we follow up with vibrate. The final less than 1% we have to use stimulation. We have two stimulation settings- standard at about 20 and boost at about 28. We consider the boost an emergency eject button and use it only in life or death situations. For example, when she bolted toward the road chasing a rabbit. She yelped, but I think that was more from surprise than anything else. Either way, she turned right back around and it's worth her not running into the road. Overall, this product has COMPLETELY changed how we live. We all (humans and dog) have so much more freedom in our lives! We can bring her around to outdoor family events without getting frustrated on a short leash or tangled up in the 30ft leash we had been using. We can go hiking off-leash and she gets so much more exercise and satisfaction from the constant sniffing, and we're not getting pulled through the forest. Truly this has improved our life so much! In terms of the specifics of this product- the collar fits her great (though we may get the bungy clip collar for ease of use). It's easy to set up and understand. I removed one star because I wish the buttons felt more distinct in the hand so you don't have to look down at what one you're using. … more

This has worked fantastic so far, love that the controller has a strap to hold on to or put around your neck. Lots of options with it.

Dudes. I fought with My fiancée about it for awhile, but I gave in and got a shock collar for our 1 year old terror of a dog named Dixie the other day. We did 5 minutes of on leash training with it in the yard and decided I felt comfortable enough with her reactions to do some off leash training. We walked the whole yard 3 times and she stayed within 4 feet of me most of the time. She only got distracted by sniffing around the front yard (which we had turkeys in earlier required minimal correction) and her ball (had to turn it up a bit for that one), but she came back after correction. It has up to a half mile range and adjustable strength ranges from 0-100, a boost button that gives an extra Dudes.

She’s a whole different dog with this thing. Game Changer!! Good or bad everyone who has a dog should have this collar. I am amazed at how positive her training will be going forward. It’s not cheap, but definitely a worthy investment. My fiancée had it at 20, but had to turn it up while teaching her how to retrieve and return with her ball and coming directly to me rather than run past me and shake it around to kill it. Took 4 times, but she got it and did amazing after that last correction. I also had a ziplock bag full of those training treats while on and off leash. I definitely don’t fully trust her not to run off just yet, but she did everything right this time and absolutely want to try again with her later. She’s pooped now. Yay! Thank you!! … more
