Starmark Pro-Training Plastic Dog Collar

I followed directions on how to adjust the size by twisting to release the joining segment in order to remove it to make the collar smaller. I could not do it so I gave it to my stronger grown son to try and after much effort the collar simply broke. WOW. No wonder it is on sale. its NO GOOD! The problem though is I am out the money for it.If I could give it zero stars I would. Not happy. :(

I bought this collar years ago.. started using different harnesses that said would cure pulling. Our 5 year old Aussie always kept pulling.. very strong for her 40 pounds! I got her Starmark collar out and used it and she did amazing!! Couldn’t believe how good she did.. even with deer around.. other dogs.. runners.. I am so proud of her!!!!!

We liked this one better than the metal ones and I’d like to believe that so does our 60 pound lab/ pit mix. It’s gentle enough but also works . It’s also very lightweight.

This is a better alternative than the spike collar made from metal for a young Golden (6months). A harness was no longer working to control him. The metal spike collar hurt him. This one gives enough pinch/correction if it’s placed properly around his neck and up high on head behind ears.

This is the best training collar. I only use it when training or walking my labs and German Shepard. It goes on close to the neck. you barely can get a finger through it. That is the correct way to wear it. How to use: Make a fist (like you were going to punch someone)with dog leash in hand. when you want to give your dog a command, turn your fist upright (like a quick snap) Inside the collar, there are pressure points. By giving a quick snap the dog feels the points and follows your command. I just trained one of our pups using this collar. There was no tugging or pulling. EASY. it was like she was already trained. Highly recommend it!

One of the best training collars I ever used! Just the right amount of pressure to teach your pup with the ease and reminder of what your intentions are without feeling guilty.

We are using these to train our 4 year old great danes who are still very much puppies at heart. This collar works well for giving safe corrections on 2 very strong dogs - they pull much less and are angels on walks.

Made all the difference. Basset hounds can be quite strong and stubborn. We’re in our 60s and couldn’t afford to have our shoulders pulled out. No more pulling!

we have a 8 month old Black Lab mix pup with a HIGH energy level and an insane drive to chase every squirrel. The harness wasn't cutting it for gaining control so we went with the plastic training collar and walks became enjoyable again. He now listens and respects what he is being told with plenty of free roam to sniff what dogs do best.
