My dog runs wild through the neighborhood when off her leash, and doesnt return on command. do you believe this product will help in fixing this?

Honestly every dog is different but this has helped with my Springer Spaniel who has a similar problem. I either use the vibrate setting or a low shock setting (if she really isn't listening) and she instantly listens and returns back to me.

Yes, this will help to correct your dog. When he/she does not listen to your "come" command you give them a little stimulation. This collar is working great for my Pointer.

This particular collar I have had for probably two weeks had to return the first one did not work second one received it broken as well. So no I don't recommend this brand collar but training collars do work well for the short time I had one. Will go to local store and purchase a reliable better quality collar.

This shock collar doesn't work at all. I not only returned it but notified Amazon. Their was no charging location on the collar part though the picture showed one. The menu screen never came on after charging it. Nothing worked. Suggest a different collar.

Yes my dog does the same thing and the shock feature even on low settings stops her immediately.

My boxer had zero recall once he had his mind set on something. After I used this on him he listens a whole lot better. I don't even use a high setting. it's in 25 for shock and at 65 on vibration. The battery life is excellent.

I sent the thing back. It didn't work at all from a distance of 40 feet. My best advice in dealing with barking dogs is call the police. There are laws concerning this behavior.

My dog always pulls and she has power. With this leash, she would stop and walk so gentle with the slightest of tension. She also loves other dogs and to jump and see what people are carrying. This prevented her pulling and from jumping as well. I say it is a great option for your situation.

No, sorry. There is a disclaimer that this system may not work with dogs that have been trained to be aggressive. Doesn't sound like that is the case w/your dog, but I just don't know enough to answer your question. Good luck!

If the collar is adjusted correctly you should be able to regain control. If you do have a problem keeping the collar on use an over the shoulders harness as a secondary safety on a separate leash.

My husband used this on a neighbors large dog that was always barking and it really worked. Your dog will probably hear it. Make sure you follow the directions and use at a safe distance from either dog. It MUST be used according to the distance the instructions provide. We used it on our barking small breed puppy so she would not disturb our neighbors during her 6AM walk. and at first it worked great, but then she did not react at all. Seems to work on some dogs, and it is impossible to determine which ones without buying the device and trying it.

I think it will, you just have to use it as soon as your dog tries to go over the wall. Its best to hide the can behind your back so when you spray it it will surprise your dog and snap its mind off of what there doing and they want to investigate where the sound came from. You have to be consistent some dogs are very stubborn so every time they go to do the unwanted behavior you have to use the spray. All dogs are different but I do think it could help you.

I've had no problems in this regard. The buggy moves freely and well. My dog first was afraid of it but soon got used to it. She went blind a few months ago and walking her is no longer an option. You may have gotten a defective unit. I suggest you return it for one that works. Good luck. I love mine.

I love these harnesses, but one of my dogs did the same thing. This has only happened once. Do you have the soft part of the harness in the back? You should be able to tighten both sides enough so he can't pull out. I usually hold the leash up a bit so he can't pull backwards. I do love the quick release.

My dog was 8 years old at the time I bought it. The problem I had was that my dog was so well trained she would only go outside, nowhere else, not even the patio, it had to be outside. So if your dog is the same way, you may have the same problem. I'm not sure what the "run" material is made of, but if it's anything other than real grass then this will probably work fine.

Maybe, the energizer is not very powerful, check my web site at electric-fence and view garden kits, These energizers are more powerful and better suited for controlling dogs

Sorry, not sure what your question is. But if you want to use that to get your neighbors dog to stop barking, I really do not think it will work. It barely worked while less than a foot away from my dog's ears. At some point, they became immune to it and we went with a different option. But the option we went with requires a collar, and spray into the dogs face area of citronella smell. Works wonders!! I hope I answered your question, if not please let me know and I will respond.

I think you may have a problem. The unit itself is a small box about 2" x about 1.5" with the spray nozzles sort of in the middle of the short end. They need free space to spray out. If your dog's hair is longer than that, and thick, you might have a problem. Alternatively, it does spray pretty powerfully, so perhaps the odor and the wet fur will be enough for your dog to detect it and respond accordingly. :-)

The collar would work, with proper training.. you have to work with your dogs to make them understand that running off is unacceptable and what the consequences are. Our Doberman is very stubborn but knows that the warning beep function of the collar is the first warning and a disciplinary shock will come next. Usually the beep make him come running to our side.

Sorry for late response, but maybe it's not working. My Golden Retriever responds very well to it ... used it to stop barking at people when we're out walking ( she does it for attention, not aggression) and used it to have her stop eating rabbit & deer droppings. It works great for me.

Sadly this will not help with the whining. Also if the dog is smart (as mine turned out to be), they learn that they can "get away with" a single bark so they stick to that. It did really help with the long running bark sessions which I'm delighted to say are a thing of the past.I feel like it was a good value for my dog and I. We get along much better when she wears it.There are dog collars with remotes which allow you to control the sending of the correction. That might help.Good luck!Alena

I'm sorry Deb I have never tested that I was trying to get our dog to stop barking when he was in the house and looking out the window. That worked GREAT
