I bought this training collar to help train my small dog not to chase my cat. It worked for only a week and then one of the prongs stopped working. The other prong still works so it’s ‘usable’ but it’s also very difficult to turn on and off to save the battery save the battery life. I ordered another collar made by Dogtra and the quality was far better and worth the extra $.

If you want to stand next to the dog to give corrections; then this trainer is for you. If, however, you wish to correct behaviors from a distance greater than 5′ then you might want to research another unit. I will say this positive. When the transmitter and receiver do communicate, this is an excellent training tool.

I got the lapdog trainer because my puppy is a shihtzu/maltese. After using for a few days I felt that the unit may have been inconsistent and that over time and much use the remote could possible wear and break as it is made of thin plastic and need one that is more durable and will last a long time.

If you do not mind zapping your dog – this is a great product. But, my puggle puppy just broke my heart with the way that she reacted that I just could not continue to use this. The batteries died almost instantly.

She cowered in the corner any time I wanted to put this collar on her and it just seemed to change her personality overnight.

Overall – I hated this and for a dog lover- I just can not recommend it.

For someone who doesn’t mind a dog screeching … it is probably just what you are looking for.

Don’t buy this product! I bought it and used it just twice: once on level 1 and once on level 2(It goes up to level 4). It left 2 burn marks where the probes touched my dog’s fur. Don’t put your dogs through the torture.Thanks
