But if you wear something 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for months, I guess you can expect some wear and tear. So I just learned now that I can buy it for $20 cheaper at Amazon as compared to PetSmart, so I'm elated.

I do not feel this unit is made to effectively influence the dog's barking over time. The unit works intermittently and sometimes not at all. Due to the unit's thick collar, it does not hang on the dog's throat as expected. I ended up taping pennies to the collar to get it balanced. <br /> <br />This collar only has a shocking feature to impact the dog's barking. There is an LED which flashes green to show the unit is on, flashes red when the unit is shocking the dog or red when the unit is low on battery power. The battery is REALLY pricey although it does last for quite some time. I have found a trick to replacing the battery with two batteries at a fraction of the price but here is not the location to go into the details. The unit is easy to turn on and off with a coin or finger pressing really hard. <br /> <br />The form factor is great but I just with it worked more effectively. I have a mini-beagle and there is no rhyme or reason to why and when this things corrects her barking. I am not terribly pleased with this device and wish it worked more effectively.

My dog is extremely small, but I still have one more hole I could use on the collar. I had to cut much of the end off. My dog does not bark more than one bark when the collar is on whether it is turned on or off. If she realizes the collar is off and begins barking she doesn't continue as much. The shocks did not hurt her. She never cried or yelped and she does not mind putting the collar back on. I am careful to turn the collar off when she doesn't wear it so the battery has lasted more than two weeks. I bought an extra to be safe. So far I am very satisfied with the collar. I do have to continue using it though. Rating: 4 / 5 I hesitated ordering this type of collar for a long time until the barking drove me crazy.

They worked when they pleased / registered causing the dog to yelp and stop barking.... ok, what we want to accomplish right? The collars turn on the dogs neck and do not stay in place, thus barking returns.. you have to constantly adjust. Maybe they work 20% of the time? So I figured perhaps continue working with them until one collar decides to go off as it pleases!! and consistantly!! I couldn't figure out why the dog was yelping til I stuck my hand there. One collar down... 2 more remain. A few weeks later during bath time I notice one of the dogs neck is similar to the photos' posted here, all cut up, raw, marks from where the collar was, yet it was not too tight and instructions followed and he wore the same collar the past 9 months. I don't know if its a defect and keeps going off, or digs in their skin burning them or what. Two collars down, and the thrid removed and I am not trying them again. <br /> <br />My recommendation... sure they may work for you, but after a year of owning one goes off as it please's and the other causes wounds on the dogs neck? Is it worth it? Rating: 1 / 5 I’ve purchased 3 of these collars believing they would work well for our 3 shih tzu’s.

Look at the photos in the image gallery of my dog's neck. This product was used exactly under the written directions of the manual. It burned her neck badly. I would never buy this product again. We followed the instructions to the letter and it still burned her neck. Buyer beware!!!!! Rating: 1 / 5 Please beware when buying this product.
