Highlights
Quality
Reliable and the battery life is amazing
I wish i had purchased this collar sooner and think this is the best investment we have made so far in our dog
This one at intensity level 1 gets dessists her from barking continuously
After our dog bolted and almost got run over causing a car to skid we knew we had to do something
Price
But a year and a bit is not long for a near 250 dollar collar
No big deal really as it should charge up within a few hours
Shipping
Delivery was timely as always and no issues with the unit itself
Competitiveness
I did much research on these collars and was quite disappointed at how much more expensive these units are in canada compared to the us

I finally had to use the shock feature when the dog went onto the road rural road with an 80 kph speed limit this training did not last long just a couple of weeks i do pull it out maybe every 6 months or so just to tune up the training but no shocks are required

It is for very stubborn dogs so make sure it’s not too powerful for your dog
