I have 2 mastiff that are very energetic and love to get into things , Nola she likes to play follow the leader when it comes to her brother zuko. I do not use the shock on them I only use the vibration and I don’t have to turn it up more than 3 for Nola she listens after that and behaves , zuko on the other hand since he is bigger I do have to turn the vibration up to 5 but he gets it after maybe one or two ..
Overall I like this product especially if your dogs are getting curious , or even if you are trying to crate train your dogs, I have both collar’s connected to one remote, I only charged it once and that is when we first got it , it was very easy to set up and I like the material on the collar because some dogs are allergic to material

Our pup, Roland, is a handful, fun-loving, and energetic. Even though we love that about him, he can definitely be hard to reign in at times, especially for a family that's grown accustomed to smaller, older rescue dogs. I've seen shock collars in use training hunting dogs, and the last thing I considered them was humane. My entire family wants to train our pup without resorting to using brutal measure like physically hitting or using shock collars that actually hurt our dog, knock him off his feet, or make him yelp in pain. This collars perfectly fits the bill for what we need. Three different ways to get his attention, sound, vibration, and a slight shock. We physically tried the shock feature on ourselves, and it's nothing more than a pinprick sensation, just enough to get your attention. I strongly recommend this product for anyone that wants to lovingly train their dog.

I was not comfortable with the idea of a "shock collar", but my six-month-old Boxer puppy was really becoming a handful. I liked that this product gave the option of a tone, vibration, or shock. Before I ever put it on my dog, I tried it out on myself. I tried the shock on level 9 and while it was not pleasant it wasn't really painful. This thing really works! My dog was startled by the tone and more so by the vibration and they both got his attention. He learned in short order that when he is wearing the collar, it is in his best interest to behave. If his behavior needs correcting just hitting the tone usually does the trick and if it doesn't, the vibration is enough. I only had to resort to the shock once on level 5 and haven't used it since. I have only had the collar for about 2 weeks and already my puppy calms down when we put the collar on and I am hoping that with further training it won't be needed at all!

I have 3 small-ish breed dogs. The collar will fit on my 35 lb dog or my 12 lb dog which is wearing the collar currently. The smaller one, when the neighbor dog is out she'll bark incessantly and blocks me out. So having this is a HUGE help! Her attention is diverted with the beep. I charged it once, for the initial charge. That was..2 months ago? At least anyway. I've not had to charge it since. I think it has a sleep mode after awhile. Because ill push the beep button and no sound until i push it again. I'll absolutely be purchasing more, as with this one it has 3 channels for 2 other collars you can control with one remote. Which is perfect because I have 3 doggos. Awesome!

My young male boxer sometimes has a mind of his own and this collar is perfect for him. It isn't that he is a disobedient animal, he just gets distracted and doesn't respond to voice commands.

When we first started with this collar, I used the electrical option once or twice a day. Now, the vibration is enough to get his attention and he is a completely different dog.

No more run-aways and most of the time, he responds to voice commands the first time. If he doesn't respond, a gentle attention getter with the vibration is enough for him to respond.

On thing I had a problem with is he has a very short coat and even the short prongs were too tall and the box would turn, minimizing the prong contact. I cut the prongs down to what you see in the picture and sanded them smooth. Perfect contact and the box doesn't turn any more.

Finally, Puptone customer service is second to none! Emails and calls are promptly answered and they are more than helpful in solving any issues you may have.

If you are having trouble getting your dog's attention, I highly recommend this option.

Got this because I wanted to start with an e collar with the vibrate setting for recall on our off leash adventures. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be a good option for us, so I didn’t want to invest in an expensive e collar. This one works well for what we need.

The vibrate is strong enough for us, though I wish it had a few more levels because her base is 5 in a more exciting environment, and it only goes up to 8. When I need something stronger though, I just use the beep.

The buttons are responsive but not overly sensitive which I like. The lock is perfect to keep me from hitting things by accident.

Distance wise, I think it’s perfect. I works so far even when she is quite far off.

Waterproof quality is good. She has gone romping in the creek a few times and it still works well.

The collar fabric is nice. Seems durable. I was also able to cut it to size, then just use fabric glue to create a finished edge so it didn’t unravel.

We don’t use the shock so I can’t comment on that.

Battery last for quite some time. I haven’t charged it since I’ve gotten it and we use it everyday for both walks. Sometimes I forget to turn it off but the battery hasn’t dropped yet after two weeks of consistent use.

My only thing is that the collar screen scratches so easily. She rolls around a lot and after her first roll it was already scratched up, but it works fine.

I have a 2 year old lab/terrier mix and he would literally bark through every type of collar and silent sound maker I could find. This was my last hope….and it works! He’ll bark very quietly once and a while but no where near the headache that was before. Don’t get me wrong I love my pup to death but I just couldn’t deal with the constant headaches anymore! Def recommend.

Honestly I don’t go for the super fancy collars cause this has been very thing I need and more. Battery life is great, waterproof is legit, just perfect.

This trading collar is a nice addition for us. It is easy to charge. Battery life is outstanding. I would recommend not turning it up to 99 as my husband tested on himself at 99 and it was quite the jolt

I really like this product , I was a little hesitant about it at first but i tried it on myself first. I'm most confident about it after trying it on my dog.

I love this collar! Super easy to set up. My dog responds so readily to the tone that I almost never have to resort to one of the other features. Very nice range of “prompts”.

This is the best collar I've ever used for my dogs. These battery life is amazing and it works great. Would definitely recommend!

Works great, i have owned other petsafe devices. They have made some great improvents since the yard and park collar i last purchased. Remote seems better built and collar has improved.

I was skeptical at first about using this electronic device. But I am glad that we purchased this device. Our puppy was attacking me and we had no choice. But to be honest we usually just have to show her the remote and she calms right away.
