Brand YardTrainer 100 Remote Trainer for Dogs Shock Collar with Remote, Waterproof, Submersible Up to 25 Ft, DryTek Technology, Trainer with Shock, Vibrate, and Tone

I have been using this product for about two months now and it has made a noticeable difference in my dog’s responsiveness during training. The remote is easy to use, the signal is reliable, and I really appreciate that it works well even in wet conditions. The different training modes are helpful and feel effective without being overwhelming. The only small drawback is that the remote takes a bit of time to get used to, but overall it has been a great training tool that I would confidently recommend.

This is my second Sport Dog collar. The first one lasted about 4 years. My golden stays in the water a lot during the summer and the collar continued to work. Not sure why this happened but with my first collar the charger stopped working. I was not able to find another charger to purchase. It was probably outdated. This newer model is great. I love that I rarely have to shock my golden, as she responds very well just to the beep. Having the low level BUZZ is good too. It is not hurtful and when I have to use it she responds very well. Sport Dog customer for life!

This w collar is the best thing I’ve ever purchase for my dog. EVER. He is an 11 year old pitbull that has never had a good recall. He is the kind of dog that knows his commands, is obedient on leash, in our fenced yard, and obedient in the house. BUT the moment he can escape, he will! He has been this way since he was 3 months old. He will dart past, rush, and use any open door as an opportunity to run. He will run for miles and hours chasing squirrels, birds, cats, etc. and will quite literally ignore all attempts to recall. Now that he’s a senior dog, these escapes happen much less often, and he will eventually give up after he’s being chased for a while. However, we are getting a new puppy and really didn’t want her to learn from his bad behaviors. I researched for a few weeks before we decided on this brand. I figured if hunting dogs could be trained with this thing, so could my boy. Y’all, I can’t believe what this collar has done to my dog! Here are the PROS: -remote is easy to use and fits well into my hand -having tone, static, and vibrate are great options and avoid unnecessary static corrections as he responds well to tone by itself. Most times I don’t even need to press the tone button. -I use static levels 1-2, and he’s totally responsive. -range is phenomenal. Can go from one end of a park to the other and have control over him. -He no longer darts out the door. -I can walk him on a leash without his prong collar. -he can walk outside with me off leash and comes as soon as I say his name. -he can be in the run with our chickens and doesn’t even flinch when they come near. -on walks he is rarely, if ever distracted or interested in chasing ANYTHING -As soon as I take the collar off of the charger in the mornings. He is at my feet wagging his tail and waiting for me to put it on. He’s a happier dog now that he has so much more freedom! Now for the Cons: -despite following the collar adjustment guidelines, my boy developed sores on his neck. I would suggest checking regularly in case any develop. He was wearing his collar for long durations because I didn’t want him to escape and then not have the collar on to reinforce my training, thus destroying all of our progress. Once he became more reliable and trustworthy to respond to his recall, I now leave the collar extremely loose(so he can at least hear the tone), and adjust tighter when we go outdoors. -both collar and remote have to be charged nightly, or you risk it not being fully charged. I made the mistake of skipping one night. It worked the next morning, but was dead that evening when I needed it to be working. I can miss a night here or there, but if we will be out all day(using the collar),I have to charge it in the morning to be safe. I would recommend charging as soon as you remove it. -personally, the lanyard is uncomfortable hanging around my neck. I would much rather prefer there were a clip on the remote so that I can attach to my waistband. -there are times that I press the tone button, and it’s delayed in relating the beep. I notice this more often if I skip a charge the night before. -vibration doesn’t seem to have an affect on my dog as far as being a correction. -using this device requires already having a dog who understands basic obedience commands. You can’t just strap it on and start using static and expecting your dog to be an angel. *In the wrong hands, this collar can do more harm than good. It requires research and technique to properly train with e-collar* Overall: research e collar training techniques, be patient, and enjoy. Highly recommend!!

I have a basset hound who likes to run the fence line and scratch up the fence playing with the neighbor's dog. I previously purchased bark collars from SportDOG, so I knew it was a quality product and company. This device is a tad different from the bark collars, however. Unlike the bark collars, this trainer automatically turns off while charging. Not that big of a deal, but I always forget to turn it back on after charging while my dog is mid-trapse through the mud. The other small complain is that the buttons aren't labeled and they're not programmed to the most logical arrangement. It only takes one accidental shock of myself to wish the company had made this slight improvement. In general, though, it is a quality product that works well.

So this product works, while it works. I read that other people have had poor luck with the batteries in the collar lasting more than a year. In my expereince it didnt last a month. We have a stubborn dog that responds verry well to this collar, even on lower setting. We charged the collar over night, and train with it durring the day. Randomly one day, the collar unit would no longer take a charge. The charging indication light would come on, and shortly after turn off. If you tried to turn it on, nothing would happen. I find it pretty rediculous that a supposed reputable brand like SportDog would allow for this quality of a product hit the shelf. Luckily I was still within the 30 Day amazon return window, but with this level of quality I can not recomend it to anyone. If my next product performs better than I will update my review. In the event that the replacement comes I receive works better, I would not give the product more than 3-4 stars. The audible beep, is neither loud or adjustable, and is best discribed as almost worthless. Even when working as it should, the battery life is dismal at best. Even on standby, and none of the training features being used, the unit only has a battery life of 2 days. So if you are human and ever forget to accomplish a small task, this unit is not forgiving in that aspect at all.

Works like a charm...plenty of reach. I let my Setter run ~100 yards out and never any issue calling her back. Unless you have pointer you really don't need more than this.

Owned a sport dog collar years ago and always said I’d get another one for my next dog! I cheaped out on one months ago just to see if it would work but unfortunately he was just too stubborn and it didn’t work on him at all. I have a one year old black lab who absolutely adores everyone so he will bolt to anyone to say hi. He’s also a jumper so I ordered this one to deter some bad habits and it’s awesome! We wanted something with a longer range for when we are out at the cabin and in the woods. My dog responds well on level 1 static but responds to the beep. The only thing I didn’t like was the set up process.. it was a bit lengthy to figure out but that doesn’t take away stars. Wish it also came with a clip for the remote like other models but the lanyard is good too!

We had one last almost seven years of daily use. Purchased another. Have had it for several months and works very very well. Highly recommend. Follow training instructions and you will almost never use the static stimulation. We only used the sound and we have a perfectly behaved dog.

Dare un poco de contexto, tengo una perrita border collie de 5-6 meses de edad, que es hiperactiva, la conseguimos de 2-3 meses y era un completo tornado, mordía todo (incluidos nosotros) en los paseos se volvía loca sobre todo al ver perros u otras personas, debido a la cantidad de ejercicio que requieren la sacamos a una calle poco transitada a lanzarle la pelota para cansarla más rápido. En cierto punto decidimos mandarla a entrenar esto duro como mes y medio y regreso muy cambiada, ya no muerde cosas, hace caso cuando le dices que NO, y ya la entrene para que haga del baño en el patio, la cosa es que apesar del entrenamiento y de que ya los paseos eran tranquilos, seguía volviéndose loca al ver perros o gente, en ocasiones nos hizo perseguirla 40-50 metros porque se le dejaba ir a gente extraña o perros, sin importarle nada más, era bastante molesto, y muy peligroso porque se iba hacia calles transitadas a perseguirlos o molestaba a perros mucho más grandes que se podian poner agresivos. Se convirtió en un problema ya que una perrita de esta raza que aparte es hiperactiva no la cansas con unas vueltas alrededor de la cuadra caminando como a otros perros, imposible. Busque sobre estos collares y vi muchos vídeos y reviews que hablan maravillas de ellos (bien usados), primero compre uno chino pero luego decidí comprar este ya que la marca y precio (1500) en oferta se me hicieron muy bien, llegó el collar lo probé una noche unos 10 minutos y la perrita pues se sacaba de onda, pero le enseñe que yo mandaba el comando al collar (usando vibración y estática en 1-2), al siguiente día me la llevé con una correa de 15 metros por aquello de que no le hiciera casi al collar, pero me equivoque, el collar es una MARAVILLA, en cuanto pasaron unas personas con dos perritos quiso irse con ellos, le apreté estática y dije NO, volteo a verme y mejor se vino conmigo (jamás había pasado eso con el collar de entrenamiento normal + correa se jaloneaba como loca aún después del entrenamiento), luego practique el llamado, dejarla ir a oler cosas y de lejos gritar ven + vibración, si no hace caso repito Ven + estática (nivel 1-2) y de inmediato viene conmigo, después de 3 días practicando, ahora me salgo la suelto y ella se va siempre cerca mío, si ve gente ya no le interesa o perros tampoco, y si de repente le llaman la atención con que yo diga NO se regresa, es una verdadera maravilla, la perrita feliz de que se pasea muy libremente sin estar atada a una correa, además para quitarles los malos comportamientos en casa es genial, está se subía a las mesas, le decías NO y le valia, ahora se subió, dije NO + estática, y se bajó, no volvió a subirse!

Sportdog es garantía de calidad muy satisfecho con el producto

[BEWARE !! INSANELY STRONG SHOCK SIMULATION !! PLEASE CONSIDER CAREFULLY !! YT- 100] Firstly, I would like say that it sure looks dam good and have amazing built quality. However, AT LEVEL 1!! THE SHOCK IS WAY TOOOOO STRONG !!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s insane !! Deceptive advertising claiming suitable for dogs from 8 pounds. It will SEND THAT DOG FLYING !! I’ve a 27 pounds French Bulldog, when I first tried it, he seems fine when I send a static shock for correction (little head tilt/confused look). I then thought it was fine at level 1 and went ahead with trimming the collar to fit him nicely. When I refitted and put on him. (Probably this time the two prongs has direct contact with him skin, “correct fit”). The next static simulation activated causes HIM JUMP AND YELP IN SHOCK !!!!!!! LET ME REMIND YOU GUYS AT LEVEL 1 !!!! LEVEL 1 !!!! Of course I had to investigate, I tried it on myself (Wrist) IT WAS WAYY TOO STRONG, CAN’T IMAGINED IF IT WAS ON MY NECK ! PLEASE DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER THIS PRODUCT IF YOUR DOG WEIGHT IS LESS THAN 50pounds or maybe even 100pounds. I bought this product hopping to further enforce certain training that I had done with him previously with leash, hopping a leash free dog. NEVER DID I KNOW I BOUGHT A PUNISHING TOOL / TORTURE TOOL ! I’m extremely disappointed, all those false claims and verification. Seriously 8 pound dog can handle this? MADNESS ! THE DESIGN TEAM OF SPORTDOG, PLEASE KINDLY REVIEW THIS PRODUCT AS ITS JUST WAY TOOO STRONG EVEN AT LEVEL 1 ! THE DECEPTIVE ADVERTISEMENT TOO !! NEVER WILL IT BE SUITABLE FOR A DOG AT 8POUNDS AS ADVERTISED ! Let’s not talk about my experience with their customer service! Since I’ve already shorten the collar, I guess I’m unable to return this product! Please consider carefully, it’s really strong, can’t imagine at level 8 what it would do to any dog. NEVER CONSIDER THE YT-100S I THINK THAT WILL SEND YOU FLYING TOO! Beware guys, peace.
