Dog Training Collar with Shock and Vibration Corrections for Effective Training of 2 Dogs-Featuring Shock and Vibration for Individual Dog Reviews
We were really hesitant about getting “shock collars” for our two dogs but got to the point we felt we had no choice. We live in a rather sprawling subdivision in the country and have always let our Jack Russell Max run out to go and do his business but when the weather is nice he will cruise the neighborhood, chasing squirrels, deer, bunnies and whatever else his little Jack Russell brain tells him to do, much to the agravation of us and our neighbors. Our newly aquired Daschund started copying him and developing her own bad habits of not returning when called. Max also gets worked up in the house sometimes and barks at the door until we let him out, then immediately barks at the door until we let him in.
Anyway, we first put the collar on Max and waited for him to start barking. When he did, a firm “no” followed by a vibrate mode immediately did the trick, he shook his head and stopped barking. We had to do this 2 or 3 times in the first few days but now he doesn’t bark at all, if he trys, a simple “no” quiets him right down.
The 2nd step was to get Max to come back in when we called him and his mind was set on chasing rabbits. We let him out and he immediately ran for the hills, chasing something real or imaginary. We called him to no avail and hit the vibrate mode with no response. Didn’t want to, but hit the first shock mode (he was at least 250 feet away and running full tilt) and heard a yelp. Yelled at him to come and he came back immediately. Had to do this a few other times when he gets focused, but he mostly goes out, does his business, and comes right back. This is after 7 years of fighting trying to get him to come in.
And the lil weiner is usually good but trys to run a little too. When she doesn’t respond usually just a vibrate will turn her right around. One time she took off for the neighbors back yard and we also had to use shock level 1. She yelped but came right back and hasn’t gone there since.
So the bottom line is we haven’t had to use them much but have had amazing response in behavour from them.
Oh and by the way, they both worked perfectly right out of the box, everything was fully charged, and when they quit working the charger works great.
I would definitely recommend this product. Please do some research of how to train your dogs using the collars and please use restraint with the shocks (and install the rubber boots on the rods) and please don’t let little kids or anyone irresponsible in charge of them. If used appropriately they should yield great results.
