Dogtra 1900X Orange E-Collar for Dog Training - 3/4 Mile Range, for Dogs 35 lbs+, IPX9K Waterproof, 100 Stimulation Levels, Vibration, Tone, Rechargeable - Ideal for Dog Owners and Trainers

Works great with my two German Shepherd’s. The collar colors correspond to the button colors which makes it easy to know which button to push if one of the dogs tries to chase deer or misbehaves warranting correction. The vibrate mode seems to get their attention most of the time. Battery life is good. I charge the collars every few days. The battery life in the transmitter is excellent. Seldom do I need to charge it more than once a week. I’ve been very pleased with the collars and highly recommend.

Being the owner/parent of an EXTREMELY intelligent and stubborn adolescent 100+lbs Cane Corso pup (1 year old), I was unfortunately on the verge of rehoming. He was super anxious, high energy no matter how much I walked, ran, jogged.. Ever hear “A tired dog is a happy dog?” Well this dog NEVER GOT TIRED! It was genetic mental crap fest. He had separation anxiety, cried and chewed, and chewed and cried. I work from home and he would literally chew and cry 2 feet from me! I read books, watched vids, and purchased 6; you heard that right, SIX different e-collars. My dog easily figured out ways to deal with the static correction and essentially failed to correlate the correction to bad behavior. Two dog trainers later I was encouraged to purchase the Dogtra collar. With hopes dwindling along with my patience and funds (dog trainers aren’t cheap ppl), I took a leap of faith. Well I’ve been flying ever since and haven’t looked back. Now for you dog parents out there that shun e-collars as cruel torture devices… why are you reading this? I’m not here to sell you butterflies and rainbows… if you crank this bad boy up to the max (which I could never imagine being appropriate) I am pretty sure you will have a taser on your hands. That’s not the point. Finding a level where your dog is uncomfortable with the stimulation enough to decide “I think I should not do this” is the point. That sweet spot for me is 30-35 depending on the distraction level (this thing goes to 127!). Now with other sport dog collars my boy never flinched, never responded, just plain old kept the show going. But Dogtra came and changed the game. Now I have a dog that gets rewarded constantly, spends more time doing what he loves, is a great car, movie night, and small child companion, and isn’t looking for mischief because I have established boundaries and he knows that “No” means “No”… that is the point after all. FYI - THIS DEVICE HAS NO WARNING BEEP! Use your words people! As doggie parents you can’t out run a dog determined to run after a cat, dog, squirrel, deer, etc. but this device gives you Thor like powers to reach across that yard and refocus their behavior back on you when YOU CALL THEM, not the beep…THAT IS THE POINT… Now on to EASE OF USE: charges fully in under 2 hours. It holds a charge for at least a couple days or more. Directions are straight forward, comes with a handy lanyard so you can walk/jog the park without your pockets sagging. As a woman this is great. Excellent range and has a nice led on both the collar and remote that indicates a low battery- excellent. Comes with a dual plug to charge both devices at the same time (Dogtra you truly thought this through *smile)… the whole package comes in a super nice almost gun like case for long term storage for when your doggo graduates to listening to just YOUR WORDS and you can put it away… I’ve dropped the remote plenty of times, my dog scratches, shakes, and roles all over the collar and it has held fast just fine - super durable! The collar fits him comfortably and doesn’t dig in. You can feel the quality of this kit the moment you open it. It’s everything they say it is when you use it properly. No issues here! If you are like me and have a stubborn adolescent dog that shed it’s adorable angelic puppy qualities and has tested your heart strings, get a reputable trainer to train YOUR behavior and this collar to establish the boundaries for your pup! All dogs are good dogs, can’t say the same for ppl tho! Lol!

Third purchase

Purchased this collar after extensive review of trainers who used e-collars. The Dogtra 1900s is constructed solidly . Pros: Very quick response of activation of vibration and dog reaction. Note that in order to get the most from the collar the owner should read ahead of time the method of timing when using the activation of the ecollar and desired behavior to occur.Battery charge lasts extremely long. Cons: Difficult to judge the correct size of collar . I purchased the large based on suggestion of package, but would have preferred the smaller size since bulkiness of collar seem to big for my 50+ dog. However, the collar still works well . Would have liked for this model to have had the "boost" feature that gives a set high vibration seen in other models as this seems like a feature that would be easier to activate by pushing once than to have to individually dial up the increased intensity to get an immediate response when your dog is delayed in reacting. Still a product worth the money when considering the safety that it will provide for you once the dog has mastered the task being taught using the collar ( ie preventing running in traffic or after other animals)

Seriously the best E collars I've owned. The only feed back I can think of is set up. Its not hard but isn't exactly easy but once you make it through it, I would say this is the best training tool. I guess there is few other things if I were to nit pick. Its not as thin as I thought and it is very heavy, which makes it hard to keep it in the proper position. It also does suck that when switching between dogs I have to manually adjust the remote because each of my dogs require different training modes. One is more sensitive and is a medium breed and one is a stubborn It's giant breed. None of these things are major concern, and I would 100 percent recommend to fine tune training along side your positive reinforcements. It's been a huge help.
