My dachshund chewed through the plastic collar once, I was able to find a long and narrow replacement collar at Petco.

hi, it can be taken off but the hard part seems to be finding a suitable replacement that will fit through the narrow slots.

There is a ring on the harness on the dog's back, you could probably clip the ID there. So far, I've left our dog's collar on the few times I have used the harness.

It needs to be charged regularly and i noticed that I have to reset the collar almost every time i use it. Other than that, it has been working just fine. I am wondering if my dog will go back to old habits once i stop using the collar or will it program her not to do certain things so eventually she won't do them even when i don't use the collar. Has anyone noticed the difference with their dog's behavior when the collar is not used?

This is not just a bark collar so you do have to shock them yourself each time. But that also means its multi use and you can correct other behaviors also. I don't even use it on my dog anymore I just have to pick it up and she stops.

The regular dog collar goes thru the interior guides on the Kong collar. If you want to take the ring off you would have to remove the regular collar to do so. However, you do not HAVE to use the inner guides. It could fit around with just the outer Velcro fastener.

I don't know that you can't; but, due to size, I don't think you would want to. This collar will be so big that I don't think you or the dog will be happy very long. Believe me, this collar is for big unrully dogs only in my opinion. Even if you chaged the strap part to something smaller, the electronic box part is still way to big for a small dog.

It's really up to you but we have found it helpful to leave the collar on during the day and charge it at night. That way we re-attach it in the mornings and it provides us with some protection knowing that its there if we need to use it. Our dog seems to actually like the idea of wearing the collar because it provides him with more freedom to roam without being chained in one space or spot. Hope this helps.

You can take the Seresto collar off some what easy. You have to feed the cut end back through the collar, but it is not that hard. This collar is made to break away if your dog gets their collar hung up on something. We have a 9lb. dachshund and he wears his all the time. The only time his is taken off is to get his bath. It is really easy to put back on. You just put it back on the same way you put it on the first time. I always recommend this collar for anyone with a flea problem.

It seems it really depends on how sensitive your dog is to sound, and it's reason for barking in the first place. I bought ours when we brought a new dog into the home and she had separation anxiety. We only needed to use the unit a few times before she stopped barking. Whether the cessation came from using the unit or from her settling in, is hard to say. But when the unit was turned on and she barked, the response was immediate and obvious.

It depends on the dog. I have two vizslas. One still needs the collar periodically, while the other rarely needs it. The one that needs the collar won't engage in the behavior at all with the collar on, but will on occasion if I take it off.

I bought the original set up + an extra collar, for two dogs. The packaging said it would replace a non-functioning primary collar or could be added for a second dog. The collars are exactly the same and there are directions for syncing multiple or a single collars with the replacement collar. However, I have not tried to use the second collar by itself on the system. Hope this helped and did not overly confuse you.

Yes you can. Just measure the prongs and use a hole-punch to make the holes and unscrew the prongs, remove off the original collar and attach to the personal collar and screw the prongs back on.

Hi Jeri, Yes, you can do that. You would just need to change the ID of the second transmitter. But you are able to control one collar with two different transmitters. You can find information and a video on that on this page: http://www.sportdog.com/support/dog-training/e-collars/wetlandhunter/wetlandhunter-425Thanks.Mark

I have two dogs and this isn't an issue for me. There are two separate buttons; one for each dog. That makes it easy to switch between the dogs quickly. If this is a concern, I recommend working with one dog at a time until you are comfortable with the remote. I also recommend associating one dog with one specific button (e.g., dog #1,is always the top button). That should dramatically reduce the chances of vibrating/shocking the wrong dog. Good luck!

The width of the collar that comes with it is about an inch. Yes you can fit another collar to the unit. I suggest Buying the unit first and then get a collar that will fit the dog. It needs to be snug in order to be effective.

Not sure exactly what you are asking about, but my dog wears his collar all the time when I'm home so I don't have to worry about putting it on or off each outside visit. People have said that in multi-level homes that they have had to watch because it did work in the home and the dog wasn't allowed upstairs/downstairs. It would depend on how wide an area you have the settings.

The collar has different settings. One is a ramp up, one will shock "instantly" and has different levels you can choose. I think it also has a setting that will shock and then reset if the dog doesn't bark again for awhile.
