Review on PetSafe Stubborn Dog Indoor Adjustable ๐Ÿถ Pet Barrier & Collar for Effective Training by Kim Aguilar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The dog received a message on the first day

This was actually recommended by my dog trainer after exhausting all other methods of keeping the dog away from cat food and litter. I have an athletic little herding dog who thinks my cat's food and litter box are the best and for all the exercise she gets in the pasture, the puzzle toys and the running she does, she thinks parkour is great to get to forbidden places fun challenge. So to save her from kidney failure and my cat from a coronary heart attack because the dog is always trying to get to Cirque du Soleil, the bathroom and lunch, I bought this collar. I thought it would be fair to test it first. and see what radius there was at beep instead of impact which would have been necessary as it's very easy to adjust with the radius scroll wheel. He pressed it against his own skin and approached the active base unit at the spot, which lay on a circle about 5 feet in diameter, gave me a solid 3 second beep, then he acted like a rumble and then finally he produced a shock that, to be honest, was about like having a brother or sister drag socks down a shaggy carpet and smack you with growths. Armed with this knowledge, I stood there and let them tap, not noticing the increase in intensity of the pop, and after each tap they stopped. and squeaked and purred to give the dog enough time to understand the message and move it. So, proof that pudding is in the food: I put a collar on my adventurous dog and sure enough he walked away thinking he was being bred. sneaky, to the promised land with cat food and cat litter, only this time it's different! the beep was confusing in itself. After standing still under the squeaks for a few moments, she decided to take a risk and stopped again under the squeaks and rumbles. She was silent again for a moment, then decided to take the risk and walked on. The result was instant; She was startled and immediately turned and ran, just like when she made the mistake of eating the bee. She got the message and only tested the theory one more time, not even trying to get close to the cat since. Food, she will lie in front of the room door and look longingly at the tray and the cat food, but that is in the past now. The cat is happy, the dog's liver and kidneys are in peak condition, and all it takes is a random 9V battery.

Pros
  • Adjust the indoor radio range from 2ft to 10ft.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
