Highlighted Reviews
"We had purchased another set and they were so heavy for our little dogs. These are much better and work well. We won’t use the shock and the vibrate is enough to stop the barking on one try."
"The range is not more than 260 feet. We didn't understand why the dogs were not reacting to the collars. So I had my so stand on the porch as I walked away continually beeping until there was no contact . Using the range finder it was around 260 feet that the signal was lost"
