5.0 out of 5 stars Flexible Settings, Durable,Long lasting batteries, January 6, 2007

I owned one collar previous to this one that I would not even use after the first time because the settings were not flexible enough. This collar has a rolling dial that goes from O-100, I have never used mine above 40. There is also a vibrator feature which is great for recall. I purchased my collar from my dog trainer who trained me and my dog. My primary reason for buying this collar was so that I can walk my dog without a leash and still have recall. Since his training he heels great and I can let him run free when appropriate. It also came in handy when my dog was trying to break down my sliding glass door. They learn quick and then there is peace.

As someone who has been working in rescue for many years I can say that training your dog with shock collars is far more humane than getting rid of your dog because you can't live with him/her comfortably. A well trained dog makes for a good lifetime companion.

4.0 out of 5 stars dogtra remote dog collar, October 26, 2007

I can't believe how well this product works- Especially for off-lead bad behaviours. My dog listens to my commands and does not have behaviour issues- that is when inside, or outside with a leash! As soon as I removed the leash, I was history, especially when he saw other dogs.
I only used the shock mode a couple of times and then only used the vibration mode. I used the unit for maybe 2 weeks and now my dog is an absolute angel and no longer need it. It's funny how he thinks it is the distraction that causes the vibration/shock, and runs to me like I'm his saviour. Works like magic!!!

This review is from: Dogtra 400 Yard Remote Trainer 175NCP (Misc.)

With a restless dog and a baby on the way I had to do something about getting the dog trained. Rather than pay the money to have him professionally trained I decided to get a training collar.

The Dogtra 400 yard trainer has been perfect. The range is sufficient if the dog starts to run off that we can correct him and bring him back. I consider my dog to be somewhat stubborn but I have yet to turn the power past 40 (it goes up to 100). He learns very quickly from a short nick. He has learned "off" means to get off the furniture, he barks less, and we let him out into the yard with just the collar on to go to the bathroom and he has yet to run away. It used to be that if he got out without being on a leash he would run through our neighborhood and would be loose for at least 15 minutes until we could corner him. This collar has taken care of a lot of bad behavior in a short time period.

I would highly recommend this collar because it works. Not only that but it is rechargeable and can just be plugged in (although it says to do so for 18 hours at a time) and the build quality is worth the extra money to me. Just make sure you read the manual and give your dog lots of praise when he does something right. Don't leave the collar on for too long when initially training.
