Great product if you train your dog to use it!!!

This is a great product. I trained my toy poodle since she was a few weeks old. She is now 4 years old and still uses this Spotty in emergencies, rainy and cold days. That was exactly the way I envision my dog to use it because I never wanted to take the dog out in the middle of the night, or on a rainy day, or too cold morning.

If you are considering one of these, remember the dog has to be trained to use it.  It does not happen automatically where you place it in a corner and expect your dog smell it and few minutes later pee on it.  Then, there is maintenance to do, change pads and keep the plastic grass clean.  The plastic grass does not grow mold.  It works as described.  I normally wash it once every week or two weeks depending on its use.  My dog still goes out to pee and poo.  This is just for emergencies and she knows that.

This is a great product!!  My dog was trained in just a few days.  Even when she doesn't have the collar on, she still won't go beyond the boundary!!

So far this has been wonderful at training my new pup, and "retraining" my almost 2 year old pup. With the older one, the sound works just fine. With the younger one, the vibration usually works, but have used the static setting a few times, on low, just to get his attention. I have had no problems so far with any of them keeping a charge. They have been lasting anywhere from a week to almost 2 weeks on a charge. I think it's wonderful to use to help with training.
Update: I still absolutely love this. I will say that one of the plastic pieces that holds it on the collar broke off somehow. I don't know if it was hit just right or what, but I contacted the company and within 24 hours they have shipped me another to replace it. I highly recommend not only for training hard headed pups, but knowing that it is backed by the company should something go wrong with it. Excellent product excellent service!

This is a great product to help train a dog to walk on a leash, the one I received was closed tightly, and has worked great for my husky and bull terrier for over a year

I was VERY skeptical about this product, but for the price gave it a chance. We have a 5 year old mini schnauzer with a high pitched bark that we just need to train. I have used the shock/buzz/and noise collars in the past and they don't seem to do much for him.

This is a definitely a training tool - I would not recommend it for runners or to keep dogs out of your yard. We began the first day we got it by telling him "no" to the inappropriate bark, then when he didn't respond we said "no" and pressed the button quickly. He stopped barking immediately. After a few days, we were able to just say no and hold the blue box and he would stop. Now a few weeks later, no is all we need. We did take it with us camping and it worked great when he barked at other dogs walking by.

I don't feel that this or many of the reviews do this product justice only because of the fact that it rates what it does to the dog and not the product itself. I do think it's great and works as advertised. The batteries last longer than some of the reviews that I have read, although have not gotten it wet to test the water-proofing/resistance that it claims. My dog is stubborn and I feel that it will take some time to break him out of the habits that he has gotten into. This is a great product and do hope that it does work for your dog/dogs.

I really like this for our already 1 year old puppy.  she was still trainable. She is a 65lb american bulldog/ st. benard mix.  I did choose certain command words and use those with the vibration, such as "come" or "down".  i've only had to shock her when she left the yard and/ or endangered herself.  i only have used the low setting for shocking her which i tested on myself first.  it gets your attention but isn't very painful.  We are now able to play with her in the yard without fear of her running off.  she has learned how far I will allow her to go.  and using this has also helped curb her jumping from excitement when we get home or someone comes over.  she does get very anxious though and will sometimes jump once or twice but when told "down" with the vibration she will quit.  she seems to want to get something in her mouth when she gets excited too so having a chew toy helps her anxiety.  I hope the collar works for her digging this summer.  i will have to watch her close and catch her when she starts.  I would suggest that you remove collar every day or two and examine the prongs.  we have had them come lose and the plastic behind them fall off.  we also lost the back cover on the remote but so many of us use it that we don't know who to blame!  We do charge collar a couple times a week, maybe more if used more.  I am very pleased with this product and would recommend it!

First off let me say that this is a great product. My husband actually called it "Magic"!!! I have used this on my dog for the past week and a half and already have seen a huge change in his behavior. I have a small dog(under 10 lbs) who likes to bark at everything, the vacuum, the fence, the birds, anyone that comes in the door or to it. He likes to bark at the neighbors constantly to the point that they don't like him. He not only barks at the fence every time he goes outside towards their house but he charges to it like something is actually there threatening him. He likes to take off out the door. This collar has already been a life changer for us. We have had a hard time getting our dog to listen to us at all or come to us for that matter.  We have tried regular bark collars and they have helped cut down on the barking and some of them have even stopped it. But they haven't helped with the behavior associated with the barking. To be honest you just put this collar on go to the shock level(we have ours on a low level 7 out of 100 and it still yields a very fast reaction from our dog.
-The bark collar comes with an adjustable collar that can be cut to fit your dogs specific size. You could adjust it to one size or a bigger size if needed. It would fit multiple sizes of dogs.
-the shock level of the collar adjusts to various levels to custom adjust to your dogs training needs and size.
-The remote has multiple features including a flash light. The remote adjusts easily to the feature you are selecting so that you can train your dog fast.
-After using this product for a short time I feel like my dog will be trained in multiple areas very fast and we won't need to continue to use it for those problems unless they arise again. Note we do not leave this on him all day only for very short periods of time then remove it right away again and replace it again when needed for a short period of time.
I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest product review of it.

Many of the bad reviews of this product are all people trying to do exactly that.  If you have a new puppy like I, start training on with this product on day one.  It is an excellent product.  Since I was putting this on a linoleum floor, I did add some 3M rubber stick-on pads to the bottom.

After 6 months, my puppy started chewing it.  I kept scolding him to no avail.  Then I realized his issue, this was do to MY fault.  I originally placed it near a wall that has a radiator.  When winter came, it was too close to the heat source.  He was just moving it a comfortable distance away.  Now that he has it where he likes, he no longer chews on it.

As for the people that think it smells, try cleaning it daily as recommended.  This does not mean just emptying the urine out, but actually hosing down the turf itself.

Works great as a training tool.  I took it with me out hiking and used it when my young dog tried to eat horse poop (which he loves).  After one shot of spray he left any we passed alone the rest of the hike.  I plan to bring it several times to reinforce.

This is an amazing tool when used correctly!  If you just put it on your dog and expect them to love it, you're sadly mistaken. It's not a magic bean that will turn your active pup into a well mannered canine.  You must introduce it slowly, and be committed to training your dog.  A gentle leader is amazing, but if you don't know whT you are doing with it, you can do some major damage to your dog, both physically and mentally!  If needed, get a trainer to show you how it works.  It's definitely worth it!!

The potty-bells are great!  They work very well......if you stick to the regime!  However, for some reason my husband thinks it's funny when the puppy just lays there and plays with them!
Do you have something that will help train a man!  LOL!  I'm sure you don't........nothing exists!  Bahahaha!  :~#

Great for training a dog that loves to pull and gets very excited around other dogs and people!  Our dog doesn't like to wear this, but when she has it on, she stops pulling immediately.  Be careful, you shouldn't pull hard when this is on, we can hold our dog (a 70lb German Shepherd) with two fingers and that's all the strength you need!

My pup is a really determined dog.  I began using this when a dog trainer personally fitted it to her and it really did work excellent. In fact to this day, she has walked her best on the gentle lead head collar.  The only problem I had was that once in a while, not often, she would pull.  After awhile I noticed it was starting to wear on her nosal, leaving a patch of no fur and a sore beginning to form.  I felt so aweful and quit using it that day.  I have had the gentle lead harness since then and although it isn't as effective, I was able to have a bit more control than just using a collar.  But now I think that one is starting to hurt her under her front legs.  So now I am in search of something else.  My dog really does great on walks, it is just when other dogs get close and she wants to greet them.  Although, we almost have her trained out of that, too, so maybe eventially we will be done using any type of training collar/harness.

I love my new Pet Resolve Dog Training Collar because I only have to use the vibration selection. I have used it for a few days and now don't have to use it. I know I will return using it one of these days because dogs are like children constantly testing you.

This really works well. Just got to be careful to get the setting correct. To little and the dog ignores you and to much and you could hurt your dog. Once you have it just right, it works very well. Just got to be consistent with the commands used (verbal and hand gestures) during training.
