PetSafe Little Dog Remote Trainer, Model PDT00-13410

This was the second collar we purchased. To say this was a life save is an understatement. Our 5 year old black lab was on the verge of having to be rehomed due to her "alpha" mentality with myself and my two children. She thought she did not have to take commands from anyone in the house and was completely out of control. After 2 days of training her with the collar and seeing an immediate turn around, we purchased the little dog collar for our Vezsla. To say the change in both dogs was dramatic was an understatement. We went from not being about to take them in public on the leash because they would pull you around like a rag doll, attempt to jump on everyone, nip and bark non stop at everyone, to receiving compliments on what well behaved dogs we had while walking them with our kids trick or treating. This was only a few days after training them with the collar.

My Jack Russel walks right through the highest setting without ever being distracted. Only a slight twitching of the neck is detectable. Placing it on the palm of my hand on the hightest level is no problem at all. Needs 8 more levels to be effective against distractions like other animals. Good for a training aid if your inside the house and have treats in your hand. The "good" tone is a plus or it would have gotten two stars. Oh, yes the batteries are hot and yes the prongs are long enough.

We've had this product for about a year, and it worked like a charm and quickly to reduce our 30-pound puggle's crazy outside barking at neighbors and dogs as they walk by our house. The beep function is similar to the beep correction/border of our dog fence, so we didn't have to use the electric stimulation very much at all (which is again similar to the correction level of our dog fence). The different correction levels and remote are a huge advantage of this product over static bark collars. You can also use this as a substitute dog fence if you take your dog off your property (we have a few local dog parks we go to). Make sure you turn it off when the dog's in the house, as it goes through a set of batteries pretty quickly (although we were admittedly using cheap ones from the dollar rack of our local hardware store). We then bought a large supply of name brand batteries here on Amazon, because it's immensely cheaper than picking them up at local retailers. I'd buy another one if the one we have breaks for some reason.

I previously had the SportDog SD-105 for which the receiver died after a few years of use. Locally only PetSafe brand collars were available. Since both SportDog and PetSafe are owned by the same parent company I figured it'd be the same, but I was mistaken. The PetSafe one had metal clips inside the remote that were supposed to form as metal contacts to the batteries to provide power, but they are very flimsy. As a result from time to time your remote will completely lose power and have to be reseated or just wait for it to come back on later. That's all the time it would take for my dog to get run over by a car. So I'm definitely returning this. Aside from that it works good... when it works.
