Bought this because my dog is great with all her commands but has trouble giving her attention when there are distractions around. My dog is not phased by this at all. She doesn't even pause with the continuous stimulation . We tried it at a higher level and she still goes on with what she is doing. We even tested it according to the instructions to make sure the prongs are working.. but nothing. Thought this would be a game changer but ended up being a waste of money. It's been sitting in the box since we got it.

We sent our rescue lab to a trainer for 4 weeks, to work out the kinks. They use this e-collar for training. I bought it so I could keep up with the training once she got back home. This collar has been the best collar I've used. I would highly recommend finding a facility that uses this and learn from them. I think the directions that came in the box are hard to understand. There has been a significant positive change in our dog. Her listening and not trying to attack the birds has been amazing. HIGHLY recommend this collar for training.

highly recommend finding a local trainer to teach you as the manual is confusing. Had a 25 min session where we learned how to program and use the collar. With just a week of training on our own, our dog learned to come even if distracted by squirrels and deer. He now comes even without the collar. I would also recommend buying the collar that has a bungee like adjustment to ensure comfort and good contact. I also love the light that is part of the collar which makes my dog more visible at night

This item my be great with most dogs but it had no affect on our Husky. I absolutely don't recommend this item.

this tool is amazing, dont expect this to work if your dog is not trained. My dog does so well!

My human got this for me because I'm very independent and I don't see why I need to do what he says all the time. He got the comfort attachment because I have a thick double coat. I've seen the number on the yellow thing, it's a '6'. My human tried this on as well and it was like he couldn't even feel it! This helps me understand that when he says 'Ivy here' I need to go to him. Or when we're walking, I should stay at his side and not lunge at rabbits or other dogs. He seems very happy with me and I've only worn it twice!.... Ivy's human here! This is an amazing tool. It is not a 'shock' collar. It is a communication device. It is no different than popping the leash or pushing on a dog's My human got this for me because I'm very independent and I don't see why I need to do what he says all the time.

It is no different than popping the leash or pushing on a dog's rear to get them to sit. This tool just gives you much more and consistent control. Ivy's working level is between 6-10 out of 100, depending on how many distractions are in our training environment. I can just barely feel it starting at 8. Ivy's recall drastically improved in just one session. The same with her heeling. The prong collars are great, but this is a massive step up. I strongly recommend training with one, especially if you have an independent breed like a Husky. … more

The charger died right away and I was only able to use it a few times.

I feel the price is way to high but I do really like this product. I purchased this after I went through six or seven different E collars ranging in price from $30-$70 and none of them meeting my needs, expectations, or the dog chewing them up. This one is expensive and I think it should be $50 cheaper because after tax and shipping it comes out to be $190.00 anyways it works great so far and I’ve only had it a day. I watched a few trainers use this same one and it comes highly recommended for stubborn dogs. It’s really not that complicated to use, watch Larry krohn on YouTube he has a video showing you how to set this up. The contact points on this collar is longer than any other collar we have I feel the price is way to high but I do really like this product.

It’s really not that complicated to use, watch Larry krohn on YouTube he has a video showing you how to set this up. The contact points on this collar is longer than any other collar we have ever had which is perfect because I have a German shepherd and his fur normally keeps other collars from doing their job. It has many different settings and I love that it has a light on the collar and I think even the remote as well so I can see my dogs in the dark. There is no annoying button on the collar to press. You just press the button on the remote to turn the remote on then line up a red dot with the red dot on the collar touch it together and the collar comes on. I have not experienced the annoying auto shut off so I don’t think it does that. I plan to update my review after having it longer than a day but for now it’s a great buy and it’s true you should never go cheap on an e collar UNLESS you have a very low maintenance small dog then your probably okay on getting a cheap collar. … more

I bought this for my Lab who is 8 months old high energy. I started training on a short leash and when I saw his head move I knew it was at the right setting. I don't leave on him all the time - if he is mis-behaving I put it on and put down to a 10 in the house (chasing cat). When walking I have it set at 30 and he could be so far away I will yell "come and push button" and man he comes a running. So I mainly use it when I am walking off leash - I am sure most people use it to really train - me half trained. Also the light at night is fantastic . I give this product 5 stars.

This product is well made but it’s use is not for me. I didn’t feel comfortable using it. This is only my opinion. I feel this type of training should be left to professionals.
