Petsafe PDT00-13625 Elite Big Dog Remote Trainer

An underground fence does not make sence when you own 13 acres. This devise is wonderful for calling in the dog when she gets on the scent of a rabbit. We seldom use the shock part of the controller but use the sound part all of the time.

In my opinion, this is a must have for dog owners.

I got this product from Petsmart and paid closer to $200...I wanted to actually talk to someone about the product as I wasn't a believer in it.

After some debating I decided to get this product for my pet as she was a rescue with absolutely no manners. Before owning this product the dog had seen several trainers to work on her behaviors, such as biting, jumping, pulling on lead, garbage raiding, and peeing indoor. Also, we have tried walking her for 45mins 1hr a day to burn energy with no positive results AND tried a dog day care where she was soon kicked out of because she "didn't play well"....but that's a whole different story.

The instructions for the product say to pick 1 problem and work with it as to not confuse the dog. So, I picked the most troublesome problem at the time which was biting (the dog was slowly getting better with house training so I felt no need to use this on her for that).

Well, it has worked miracles. My dog is so much better behaved after just a month of use and even my family members and friends comment on how much better behaved she is.

With the collar you get the option to select levels 1 15 for the "static shock". I started at 1 and worked my way up until I got a response from the collar. I found that for my 45lb dog that 6 works best. It seems to be just enough to stop her from what she was doing, but not nearly enough to make her yelp. IF YOUR DOG YELPS YOU HAVE THE SETTING TOO HIGH!!!

I've read reviews about battery life not being good, but I last charged the collar and the remote a month ago and the remote still reads full battery and the collar is still blinking green (to indicate it's on and charged).

The collar is supposedly waterproof, but I personally don't know with that. The collar goes on like a belt with a pin through a hole, but it also has your traditional clip that plugs in. This is great because once you find the right size for your pet, you can just unclip it when you want to take it off and simply put it right back on without having to adjust the size. This allows for you to quickly and easily take it on or off.

I always wonder if the collar is uncomfortable for the dog (even when it's not zapping), but my dog falls asleep next to me on the couch with it on as if it's not even there. She doesn't scratch at it or anything, so I just have to assume it's not that bad (she put up a much larger fight with those silly elizabethan collars -the "cone of shame")

If you are having issues training your dog, this may work for you. I know not everyone thinks they're a good idea. I've tried it on the number that it's set to for my dog (6) on my arm and it was more of a nuisance shock and not like a taser which is what most of us think of.

I reccomend this product to anyone that is having issues, maybe not as a first resort, but this is certainly able to work if you use it and it will lead to a much happier pet and owner in the long run. For example, now that my dog behaves much better she gets to spend more time hanging around the family instead of in a crate and she gets to be in the kitchen while we're eating because she no longer jumps all over the place.

If you were to ask my dog, I would think she'd say she is happier now that we all get along.

About 9 months ago, I bought my first Vizsla puppy. I've been told that e-collar training is a must for sporting dogs. I was talking to a couple trainers, and they considered this a cheaper collar. I was thinking about spending somewhere in the $50 range, but I'm glad I got this one. I have a couple friends who have cheaper collars, and they've had a handful of problems. This one is easy to recharge, it seems to hold it's charge for quite a while, it's easy to take on and off, and I've had a good overall experience with it. I'd recommend it to anyone. I use it primarily when we go running in the woods and when I take her to the beach. It's really nice to be able to take her off the leash once in a while to let her run.

Product worked as advertised. Rechargable transmitter and collar are especially nice. I have the little dog trainer for my smaller dog and both work well. The audible tone is all it takes most of the time.
