OptiPaw Dog Control Collar Review

Measured and put on the collar. The dog fought back (5 month old puppy), pulling and tearing at the collar and tearing the fabric material at the stitching.

fell apart in just a few days! Bought a few for friends and never had any problems. Although I was disappointed with this particular color, I am a firm believer in Don Sullivan's dog training method.

Fallen apart at the joints a few times when laid down. Not safe to use when walking as it then came loose too. I've used a similar collar in the past with no problems so I was surprised that this one was so bad. I can't recommend it in good conscience.

This collar was delivered on Saturday September. 4. Was used on Sunday September 5th. Used and broken on September 7th. This was for an average dog that weighs 37 pounds. I will not buy another one but I intend to contact the seller. If they replace and last I will write another review. Maybe I just got a bug.

This collar was bought to replace an old version which I was afraid might break with our new dog. Used it several times with little success. I was walking the dog today and the dog had trouble pulling on the leash. Accidentally noticed the collar was loose. Upon closer inspection, the metal ring holding the two ends together actually bends and pulls apart under stress, allowing one end to slip off and our dog could almost break free. Our dog is not that big, 45 pounds and a puppy.

I never write reviews but thought I should help others consider this product. We purchased Don Sullivan's "Perfect Dog" training system from his website, Dogfather.com, which included a crew collar, training leashes, and training DVDs. Our lab pup outgrew his collar so I bought this replacement collar assuming it was the same. I was wrong, we wore it on her for 5 days and today before leaving home I corrected her and the metal clasp broke in two and the collar fell off her neck. If that…
