Review on ๐Ÿ• Waterproof ยฝ-Mile Remote Training Dog E-Collar - Dogtra 200C, Designed for One-Handed Operation by Paula Stewart

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I have a good dog (no longer barks at door/window)

I have to start this review to say ONLY BUY IF YOU HAVE A PROFESSIONAL TRAINER to teach you how to use this collar use properly. I can't stress enough! Our dog trainer Donna came to our house to practice this exercise with our 2 year old Cocker Spaniel Milo. Milo earned the nickname "Chatty Milo" because he constantly barked at people, dogs, and squirrels, and even blew leaves when the front door or windows were open. I tried to fix the situation myself but to no avail. So I called our dog trainer, Donna, to our house. I worked with Donna and Milo one on one for about 6 months teaching him how to sit, stand, lie down, come and come back. He will follow all these commands very well, both verbally and visually. All teams are rewarded with lots of praise (no treats - I don't recommend a trainer who uses this method - do you ALWAYS have treats? no - but you always have praise!). But Milo has a strong spirit and mind of his own and would run around the coffee table growling and barking if I tried to correct him for barking at people/things when the doors are open. May I add that he also barked or growled softly when I walked with him and we saw people/dogs in the local park. It all ended here. my life is back And a pretty cute dog too. Donna trained Milo in 1 hour (with collar) and it works like this: TEAM - CORRECTION - TEAM - PRAISE Then I've been working with Milo for the last two weeks. When he barks (which isn't a 1/2 muffled bark) I say "quiet" and he stops and looks at me! I give him lots of praise, dusting himself off and running after a toy or happily going his own way. IMPRESSIVE!
