I have to admit that I was skeptical of this product. My Golden Retriever loves to bark. It took just a couple of days for her to stop. I loaned it to my daughter to try on her Retriever..she has now bought one. Same for my son..he also bought one for his dog. I was also concerned about the training being painful for the dog, but the automatic, gradual increase in shock level seems to be very effective as a gentle reminder.

Item was shipped with sparse instructions. I thought the battery was dead because I couldn't make it work. After buying replacement batteries, I finally got the collar to operate, and it made my dog cry out, or yelp, making convoluted turnovers on the floor. He didn't stop barking, and was making such a fuss I couldn't take it - it was like he was being tortured. Item description at Amazon.com led me to believe features not included were included. Anybody need a used item with 3 extra batteries?

We bought this collar in hopes that it would help our dog quit whining while he is in his crate due to separation anxiety. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't but really the only thing it has done is make our dog afraid to go into his crate because he doesn't realize it is the collar shocking him. If I had it to do all over again I think I would have bought a training collar instead where I have more control over the whole process. The collar can be very sensitive at times and at other times it seems to take forever for it to take action. We have a toy poodle and he is very smart but after wearing the collar for the last few weeks he has now started peeing in his crate in retaliation and he doesn't have a very big crate so we aren't sure why he is doing this. He has been sleeping in his crate for the last ten months and his only problem was the separation anxiety, now I fear we may have created more problems for us to address and I don't even know where to begin!

Works great! I like that it senses vibrations from your dog rather than sound - His old collar would shock him when his sister would bark - no fair.

I thought this product was awesome and the best deal I could find ANYWHERE! We have a weiner dog with a flare for all night long barking (at nothing) after the first night he wore this it was weeks before he started barking again and even then it took only one night to refresh his memory that barking is not allowed at night at our home...
Thanks Rebekah and Jim Nelson
