Educator E-Collar EZ-900-1/2 Mile Remote Waterproof Dog Trainer - Static, Vibration and Sound Stimulation Collar with PetsTEK Dog Training Clicker

We had purchased a cheaper E collar and it was so hard to change the strength of the zap. Our dog trainer suggested this collar and it has been a breeze to use. Yes, you pay more, but you reduce the chance of your dog getting a super high jolt or not one at all. This has been one of the best items we have bought for our girl and training has been a relaxed and rewarding time. BTW she is an 11 month old energetic dog.

This is my second Educator collar! The first I used for approximately 5 years with HEAVY use! Saltwater exposure every weekend during the summer was no match to this collar! I do think I prefer the mini educator with the round remote a little better! Although I’ve only had this one for two weeks so it is probably more of a getting used to the buttons. The remote definitely fits better in my hand and I also like the beep feature. My pup just don’t know how to react to it yet😂. My first collar didn’t have that only shock and vibrate. I know this is a long winded response and I hope you make it this far as I believe it is the most important part! About 2 years in on my mini educator I had to call and get the collar replaced. Second ring a HUMAN answered the phone. Barely asked questions when I said the collar wouldn’t charge and sent me a brand new one! All she asked was to send the old back! I even tried to pay as I know letting Bella play in the ocean with it on has to be hard on it. If you are on the hunt and can’t decide I highly recommend you just going ahead and get it! I’ve tried cheaper collars and they are not even a close match to these! I will never own a different brand due to the quality and most importantly the customer service I received!

This is the third e-collar I've gotten in just a few months. The first on seemed to have a mind of it's own and also a very irritating sleep mode. I did a review you can read if you just click my name. The next was a sport dog 1225. It worked fine for a few weeks, then the shock stopped working. I had to keep turning it off and on until it worked. I had been watching YouTube videos on this stuff and noticed that, what seems to be the best videos also had the trainer holding that yellow thing. I checked it out and got one. It's worked up till now except for once, and that was a collar/contact issue. There must be something wrong with me, because I found the instructions very clear and had the thing programmed in just a few minutes. I did switch to the clip-on style collar. I like the charger too. A mini usb on the transmitter and a standard 5v plug on the collar. The sport dog uses their own plugs, so if you forget your charger, your out of luck. Also, we've been to the river and stuck in the rain - yes - it's waterproof. The led light is useful too. I forgot to mention, it comes with software for your pc. just plug in your mini usb on the transmitter and run the software. 4 stars for now. I'll edit in a few months. I go 5 stars (8/27/18)

Price was good compared to other vendors. My dog training recommended this device and it appears to have many features that will allow the least restrictive correction with maximum results.

I have only used the shock a couple of times to stop my Aussie from barking at night in the back yard. Now the vibration is all it takes. She still barks here and there (a good thing) but rarely barks for long periods of time. I’m using the tone to train her to come back to me. I saw this on YouTube and it makes great sense when your dog is out of calling range. I bought this a couple of months ago and it’s easy to learn (not like some of the other electronic learning curves I have dealt with). I’m very happy with this unit and the battery lasts a couple of days, way more than I thought it would.
