5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, I wish I'd have purchased this a year ago, May 26, 2011

This review is from: Innotek Spray Commander Dog Training Tool (Misc.)

I have a pretty crazy 2-year old North American mutt who was having trouble with several things - chasing the cat, running off when not on leash and exploding at the front door when visitors came. We tried spray water bottles, time outs, treats, but nothing worked. With this spray collar we have been successful at curbing everything so far. The key is to follow the instructions to the letter. At this point, my dog doesn't associate the collar with me, and doesn't associate the collar with the spray corrections. This way, he follows my commands, even WITHOUT THE COLLAR. This is worth the price, that I was admittedly concerned about. It is imperative to break the dog in by wearing it first, unloaded, for several days, and not making a big deal of it. Then, be SURE that you stay out of the dog's sight when working with the collar - loading batteries, refilling the citronella, turning the power on, etc. Also make sure you wait the full 20 minutes after putting on the collar before you use the spray for a correction. It takes some planning and a little extra effort up front, but it's been worth it. After 2 sprays, I now have control off leash - just give the warning command, and he comes right back (be sure to stay within the 250 remote range continually while outside the first few times). Amazing! Same with the cat and the door. I agree with the other reviewer about the newer, waterproof version, and turning off the collar when not focused on training. We also took on one transgression at a time. Our dog is pretty sensitive, so we started with running away off leash. Then, when we conquered that, we took a few days off, then started with the cat chasing, etc. One last tip, be careful when carrying the remote around that you don't accidentally set off the spray. I accidentally rolled on the remote while I was on the couch watching TV. My dog was asleep when he got sprayed, and was totally freaked out for the rest of the night. We took several days off after that, and he seemed to recover. Best of luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars effectively changes problem behavior in difficult dogs, April 4, 2011

My one-year old bull terrier has been obsessed with doing things he shouldn't -- entering certain rooms, jumping up on counters, etc. These problem behaviors have been curbed by using the spray commander. Two or three well-timed spray blasts, and he made the connection, and the problem behavior has been curbed. I only wish I had started using this earlier. Be sure to get the newer version, which is water proof and better constructed. Although some have reported that the batteries run down quickly, I have not had a similar problem. But I am careful about turning the unit off, except for those times when I intend to focus on training.

Another note: Be cautious about purchasing from the Amazon marketplace merchants rather than from Amazon itself; some of these merchants seem to have questionable inventory, and returns are more difficult.

My wife was going to kill me if I didn't get my Sheltie puppy under control. The little guy was terrorizing our Maltese and barking at anything that moved. The two cats were not overly happy with him either. So, I took a chance on this collar. She wanted me to get a shock collar, but I didn't think "zapping," him was such a good idea, though if this collar didn't work, that would have been the next step. I got the collar and put it on him. I guess it wasn't tight enough, because he ate through the collar within an hour. That would make about four collars he has turned to scrap since I got him. He is really good at it:( Anyway, I fixed the collar and tried again. From the first spray, he has finally started to blend into our family instead of trying to take it over. I'm amazed how well this thing works. Most of the time we just use the warning beep, and he straightens right up. What a life saver. His and mine:)
