Review on ๐Ÿถ Garmin Pro 550, Dog Training Collar and Handheld, 1-Handed Training for Up to 3 Dogs, 21 Adjustable Stimulation Levels by Robin Williams

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Lasted about seven months. Not my first choice

I have been training working dogs for over a decade and have used many e-collars. I love the design and function of this device, but it just couldn't measure up. My dog left some superficial bite marks on the collar when the strap broke and the collar came loose. I untied the harness with a bungee and the collar worked fine for a few more weeks and then stopped. It beeps but no longer stimulates. Nothing in the collar looks put together or broken. For that money I suggest getting a Dogtra or, if you can afford it, a Martin Systems collar. I've been using a Martin system for 7 years and the guy I sold it to is still using it 3 years later. Only one battery was needed for ten years. This device seems reliable but lasts less than 7 months.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Not as good as it says
