Pros ~ can adjust the zap to the dog's response...I would suggest starting low, because our loonie bin border collie only needed a 2 where if I were to guess I would of thought 8 wouldn't get thru to his thick skull. :) It works well and if the dog is smart it works quickly. As much as the dog drives us nuts, he is pretty darn smart and so now we just have to put the collar on and it doesn't matter if the battery is dead he doesn't want to 'test' the zapper anymore. (fast learner!)
Cons ~ the batteries do die quickly and need to be replaced. the collar has to be on really tight (almost choking) to make skin contact thru all the hair (so if you have a super hairy dog, you might have trouble getting it on tight enough to work)
I think if you want to 'test out' the idea before spending hundreds of dollars this is a fabulous tool to either get the job done or see how your pet responds to this type of training before you spend a bunch of money on a similar product. :)This seemed like a great deal... this is complete crap! I've had the remote and collar about 2 weeks and have already need to replace the batteries twice! the beeping buttons seemed to wrk great in distracting our bloodhound from constant barking but the numbered buzzing buttons never worked. I even held the collar and tried the buzzing on my hand with no results. I should have known it was crap when I first opened the box and tried to put the collar on and the buckle broke. The batteries that came with product we probably 10 years old!

This is a complete piece of JUNK!!! The thing just keeps beeping...drives you nuts. You have to take the battery out just to get it to stop. I can't believe they get away with selling this. Stay completely away from this.Sent the first one back because it stopped working in 2 days. They sent a replacement that didn't work from the time I opened it.

I ended up selling this mostly because I was a little too scared to use it! It worked like it was supposed to and I definitely think it's better than the ones that go off just when your dog barks.
