Does long coat matter?

Our Jack has a rough coat and it works fine. They tell you to trim the hair around the neck if the coat is to long. But now that he has worn in for a few months we don't even turn it on. Just putting it on him he stops barking. I have tried every device and this is the only one that worked.

No a long coat does not matter. My yorkie has a long coat & this collar works very well on him.

The instructions suggest trimming, not shaving, the area where the contacts touch the neck. If your dog has a long, thick coat, you may want to trim that area. I have a Morkie and he has a long, thin textured coat. I do not trim that area. I just make sure that the collar fits correctly. You will not be disappointed! I highly recommend this bark collar.

Both of my dogs are short hair dachshunds, but I know they mention in the brochure that you may have to trim the fur on thick or long hair so that the sensor on the throat makes contact. I can attest to the importance of the sensor making contact sufficiently, otherwise the collar won't work properly. Hope that helps...good luck.

I put the collar on my cairn terrier snugly. It works well. You may have to trim some hair from a dog with longer hair, but it is well worth the peace and quiet!

Long coat does seem to matter. I just trim the coat where the prongs of the bark collar go. That works for my dog.

It depends on the size and how many coats. But it keeps well if you have extra.

Thank you for your question! This collar comes with both long and short probes for various coat lengths.

I'm the same height, but 170lbs. I got the extra large because I have wide hips. I also have slightly long arms so this size was perfect for me. I think you would probably be fine with the large. I truly love this coat. It's 9 degrees this morning with wind and it kept me warm!

The overall size of the coat is a large. I have a size C breast and I can close the coat with no problem...even with a fleece jacket.

I'm not sure it matters but I got the long hair one. My pitt/sherpard mix has about the same length hair as yours. They love it and it works great! Should have bought this years ago.

Yes! The coat has nice coverage. I have a weimaraner and needed to get the extra large to fit around her bigger chest. The belly strap is still a little too tight around (she's 75 lbs). The velcro at the neck strap pops off at least once during our walks. But overall, for the price, this is a nice coat.

Mine is a mix of shepherd, husky, and something else, so he has med. long too and it works well. You may just have to remove hair from rake more frequently, but I think it will work well for you! It really does a great job getting that undercoat out and keeping it contained for the most part.

I would suggest using fine steel wool and the clear coat very light coats....

Not really. you wipe it on with a brush on cloth ( I like the cloth best). You can then buff it with a soft cloth and repeat the process if you want a thicker coat.

I agree --they run a bit larger, which was perfect for my mini-poodle since we rarely find coats long enough to cover her entire back. It is a great coat, but the velcro isn't. I'd recommend adding a better quality strip.

I would purchase the large one, for long hair. I have a chocolate lab and their coat is similar to a German Shepard's.

Yes, you need both a base coat & top coat. I use the top coat by gellish :)

I used 3-4 coats on the tables. However, if the product is old, (sitting in the store too long), it will not work.

My Shepard has a thick coat, but medium hair. There's two different sets of contacts. I use the short, you may need the long. They're really easy to swap out.

the coat is a little large so if am XL is loss on you now a large may fix you

yes! I have multiple coats hung on one hook. I bought two of these and have them hung up parallel to each other, so I have one long coat rack. Definitely worth the cost.
