Petsafe Elite Big Dog Trainer

Had this collar for a couple of years with no problems.Now it beeps constantly I suspect the battery is shot and won't take a charge,no way to replace the battery so Now I have to buy a whole new collar

The concept is great. It REALLY helped discipline a hard-to-train dog.

However, the quality is poor. We actually purchased two (two dogs) and within a month one of the charging connectors was bent. Every time I wanted to charge it, I had to get out a steak knife and straighten the prongs out. They eventually broke off completely and that is how that collar broke.

Also, BOTH collars had problems with the on/off button jamming. After about 2-3 months (with part-time use) I had to jam a pen in the button to turn it on/off. This worked for a few weeks until the pother collar eventually jammed completely and now cannot be turned, that is how the second collar broke.

Overall, incredibly disappointed with the quality. With this price, I expected MUCH better. I am emailing the company today to see if they will replace them (and will update this review). However, I am still concerned because both collars had the exact problems in just a few months. We always made sure the take care of them as this was an investment over our budget. Also, we only used them part-time, I am sure they would have lasted less than 2-3 months with regular use.

Never used training collar before for my dogs. Hated the idea of it, but no fences here in the country and lots to hurt a small pup out there. Once the collar was on tight enough (too loose at first because I was being too careful), she got the message. She listens to all of her commands much better (without wearing the collar) and has ALWAYS come back after a buzz and most of the time before with just a command. This is huge. We can keep our dog safe and can go back to leash-free play! On the negative side: The collar seems to need to be charged far more often than the directions suggest.

We purchased this in hopes to help calm our dogs down. They are great dog, but still have a lot of "puppy" in them. I mostly use the "beep" feature, that's enough to make the dogs realize that we do not like their current action. The remote and the collar stay well charged, they stay charged for over a week.

It worked great with my dog. I have a very stubborn doberman and it has worked wonders with him using this collar.
