The collar and remote are just an awesome training tool.We have been using it for 6 months or so on our American Staffordshire Terrier and his off-leash responsiveness now is excellent.
It is a SERIOUS training tool though meaning that it would be very easy to traumatize your dog if you are the least bit inconsistent or overuse it.Self control for the user is mandatory!Not recommended for everyone but a great tool if used properly.
We set up the fence but rarely use it now as it was just a precaution for his digging.
My problem is the battery.We have been using the collar every day and therefore have been charging it often, sometimes every night if used alot that day.About 3 months into using the collar the battery just stopped holding a charge.We contacted the company (who were easy to work with by the way) and they sent us another collar.Now THAT collar isn't holding a charge, again after 2-3 months!We haven't contacted the company yet but we are going to this week.
This is the second collar unit we have gone through in a 6 month time frame which doesn't bode well for the long-term usability of this product.
We have another collar unit that we haven't had any problems with but it hasn't been used much since we bought it for use on our Rottweiler but he's just 4 months old now and it isn't recommended before 6 months.
