Highlighted Reviews

— Philip

"Always comes in a timely manner"

— Juan

"Bought one and it lasted all but maybe 2 weeks. It just stopped working. It was replaced and the second one lasted a few months and again stopped working. It wouldn’t charge or do anything else."

Bottom Line

While the collar offers advanced features, the worrying lack of long term proper functionality and the burnt holes warnings suggest that cautious consideration
