Add-A-Dog Receiver - SDR-FS by SportDOG

This thing is great. We use it in on our dog in our yard, on walks, and occasionally even inside our home. It needs recharging pretty often if you don't turn it off but the recharging is a snap. The on/off switch and indicator are actually quite easy to use but we don't always take the time to turn it off. Remarkably, the battery life does not seem to have declined at all after almost 2 years of regular use. We are also very pleased that the seal on the charging connection seems to work well as our dog swims with this collar regularly with no ill effects noted. We tried it out on our kids (after trying it on myself first) to make sure we weren't hurting our dog too much. It's really just an annoying zing and not what I would describe as painful. Well, our dog does not like it so he has become very obedient after just a few zings. The negative tone is all we need now and he comes running, ready to obey. In fact, our dog's behavior seems to be better when he just has the collar on.

Have had the single dog unit for almost a year now, but needed a way to control 2 dogs at once, since only the one with the collar on would behave. When you add another collar to the system (up to 3 total) you lose the beep and tick modes, but that's OK since I never used the beep and the tick didn't always get their attention. Now both dogs behave since they know what's coming if they don't. I probably don't need another one for the 3rd dog, since she sees what happens to the other 2 and magically behaves now.

GREAT SERVICE AND GREAT PRODUCT! I use it every time I take my dog out. She is trained so well that I probably don't even have to put the collar on at all. However, because we are out in public, I don't want to take the chance of her running off (especially when she's chasing a rabbit or a cat!).

I'm a very dedicated and compassionate dog owner. I was very hesitant to buy this product but my dog always knew when he was 'off leash' and would not listen or come every time when called. I take him for walks/runs a few times a day and run him for a 6-9 miles a week. I've spent a few months training him at the park and the dog park on basic obedience commands. He is great around the house, on leash and when he knows I will correct him if he chooses to ignore me. I felt like the only way to prevent loosing control of him when I let him off leash was to have a invisible long leash in the e-collar.

I've recently started using the 'nick' button on my dog during a camping trip and the result was amazing. Make sure you dog knows all the commands, especially come, and that you have positive control of your dog when you first use the collar. I let him wear it for a few days before I started using it. This was suggested in the operating manual and will prevent them from associating the collar with the stimulation. I've used the device on myself on 4 and that is as high as I will go with my dogs as well. It is definitely enough to get their attention and for the most part my dog will respond without yelping at a 2. This is a very low level of stimulation. My dog was not very treat or affection motivated but he loves to hunt and sniff around. This allows him to do that while keeping his attention on me and returning to me every time I call.

I was very concerned after reading all the opinions out there about 'ruining a dog' by using an e-collar. I've seen the opposite result. My dog loves the freedom that this device provides, and as a result of my increased trust in him he is a lot happier with his new found freedom on hikes and camping trips.

This collar has allowed a great deal of freedom with my dog and we both enjoy that a lot more than the long leash or the search after he bolts after a rabbit. I enthusiastically recommend this product to any dog lover who has had a scare after a dog bolted to chase another animal.

Works flawlessly, super easy to add to existing transmitter and nice having only one transmitter to carry on hikes in the desert. Excellent range (not 400 yards tho) as long as there aren't too many washes/hills/valleys. Feel safer being able to "touch" the dogs from a long distance to recall them after their runs after jack rabbits and yes, after coyotes too! Also worked great to warn them of dangers such as rattlesnakes...they hear/smell a rattler now they steer clear! Using it with a German Shepherd and a Samoyed/Chow mix. Both can be stubborn...read esp. the Chow :) but a setting of only 2 gets their focus back where it should be.
