What's New in the SportDOG SD-1225X

  • Up to 21 levels of continuous STIM or 7 levels of momentary STIM with either non-stimulating tone or vibration (depending on transmitter mode)
  • Backward-compatible with previous SD-1225 series remote collars



  • The SportDOG SportHunter 1225X is a 3/4 mile range e-collar that features tone, vibration, or up to 21 levels of static stimulation depending on transmitter mode. The remote can be operated one-handed without having to look at it, letting you keep your eyes on your dog while training or in the field.

  • Both the transmitter and receiver are waterproof and submersible.

  • You can customize your SportDOG Field Trainer SD-1225X to match your training preference. It comes set up in MODE-5 (a 21-level continuous one dog collar with non-stimulation tone), but it can easily be changed into 7 different modes with different button configurations.

  • Customize your transmitter to your training needs. The wide range of stimulation levels and gradual increases between levels on the SD-1225X are particularly useful with sensitive dogs or breeds.

  • The No-look design allows you to keep an eye your dog and not on your transmitter.

  • The comfortable "soft coat" transmitter finish makes this unit a pleasure to handle.

  • The SD-1225X features a 3/4 mile range, a slim profile collar receiver that ensures a perfect fit, and a compact transmitter that's easy to handle

  • Can be expanded to control up to three dogs by adding SportDOG Brand Add-A-Dog collars.







  • Gun Dog Supply Exclusive: One Hour BASIC OBEDIENCE Ecollar Training Video

      SportDOG SD-1225X Sport Hunter Remote Training Collar$40 Value -- You get this FOR FREE when you buy this ecollar.

      We are proud to announce that Professional Dog Trainer Robin MacFarlane is working with us! We just wrapped another video shoot, and are launching her latest DVD.

      PREVIEW: Watch a 10-minute Preview here...

      What's interesting about these videos is that Robin has never worked with these dogs before, and several younger dogs have never been trained on an ecollar.

      First, Robin walks you through the basic obedience commands showing what proper form looks like.

      Next, Robin shows how she introduces the ecollar to two of Steve's puppies, Jack & Tilly, and shows you how to find the right STIM level to communicate with your dog.

      She then turns that into a lesson for your dog to recognize that STIM means pay attention to your handler and expands that into a basic recall.

      Additional segments include teaching RECALL, PLACE, SIT, and HEEL.



      Exclusively available at Gun Dog Supply.

      Modes include Continuous and Momentary with Tone or Vibration. Two or Three Dog Mode features one button per dog with either Tone (Mode 3) or Vibration (Mode 4). You also have the option of Continuous and Momentary with Tone and the ability to activate/deactivate the Locator Beeper (sold separately).

      Another feature in the 1225X collar is the ability to change stimulation settings at the collar. The collar has a low, medium and high setting.

Lower the overall stimulation choices for more sensitive dogs and raise the levels for hard-headed or stubborn ones.

      You can change the collar setting at any time. You can also have collars set up on different levels and work them from the same transmitter. This allows you the option of working sensitive and stubborn dogs from the same transmitter.

    Steve Says: SportDOG SD-1225X

    The SportDOG SD-1225X is like a little brother to the popular SD-1825X. It uses the exact same collar receiver as the 1825X, but with a smaller transmitter and a slightly reduced range (3/4 mile vs. 1 mile).

    Like the SD-1825X, the SD-1225X receiver collar has 3 programmable stimulation settings, allowing you to choose between low, medium, and high stimulation to more accurately address your dog's stimulation needs.

    The SD-1225 transmitter doesn't have the toggle switch found on the 1825X, so you have fewer modes to choose from, but it still maintains all the same functions as the 1825X: continuous stimulation, momentary stimulation, vibration, and tone.

    The multi-dog modes the SD-1225X offer continuous stimulation only, one button for each dog.

    The 1225X has up to 21 levels of continuous stimulation, and 7 levels of momentary stimulation.

    The modes to help you personalize your system to fit YOUR dog's needs include:
    1. Continuous, Momentary, Tone with Vibration on the dial (1 Dog Only)
    2. Continuous, Momentary, Vibration with Tone on the dial (1 Dog Only)
    3. High Continuous, Medium Continuous, Low COntinuous with Tone on the dial (1 Dog only)
    4. High Continuous, Medium Continuous, Low COntinuous with Vibration on the dial (1 Dog only)
    5. Continuous, Momentary, Activate Remote Beeper (sold separately) with Tone on the Dial (1 dog only)
    6. Dog 1, Dog 2, Dog 3 (all continuous) with Tone on the Dial
    7. Dog 1, Dog 2, Dog 3 (all continuous) with Vibration on the Dial


    The biggest difference between the 1225X and the smaller collars is that it has a wider range of stimulation choices on the collar. This has the low stim mode, the medium stim mode, and the high stim mode, so it's going to cover a really broad range of dogs. If you have a dog that's extremely sensitive you can set it down on low. If you have a dog that's really tough and hardheaded, needing a higher stimulation level, then this collar will step up.

    The transmitter is the exact same size as the 825X, so it's a little bit smaller than the 1825X. It's probably my favorite size of the transmitters that SportDOG has. It's not extremely small like the 425X, but it's not big like the 1825X. The 1225X doesn't have the toggle switch that the 1825X has, so it is more limited in its multi-dog functionality.

    The SD-1225X has been a popular system for us. It has a little more range than the under $200 set, plus some higher-end features without the high-end price tag.

    February 27, 2022
    Excellent product! At this price point having the ability to use the V/T mode on 3 dogs from one remote trainer is a game changer for me. Running 3 dogs, this option was not available on the earlier version of the 1225x I purchased several years ago.
    Pros
    • Excellent product. The V/T option when running 3 upland dogs is a game changer.
    Cons
    • None.

    Awesome collar system! Great customer service! This is our third purchase from gundogsupply.com, and we've been impressed each time. We use the collar in our large yard during rally obedience and agility training (just as a backup to keep the dogs in the yard). Waterproof; nice to have multi-dog function when they swim at the lake. This collar also has a large range of intensity levels for the "buzz", as we say. Great for our sensitive young dog, and older, more stubborn dog. I also love the "beep" tone feature, as we mostly just use that. When the dogs hear the "beep", it's like hearing "COME!", and 90% of the time they just come in response to that, and you don't have to shout when they are far away. VERY SATISFIED!

    Great product, solid quality feel, waterproof, 3/4 mile range is real not just marketing. I expect this to last a long time due to the build quality. Easy to set up, power level dial stays at the selected level. This was a recommendation from Gun Dog Supply, and I couldn't be happier. I can walk the dog in the neighborhood without a leash, and she won't go into a field until I release her.

    The on/off button on the collar is a great feature. No matching "red dots". The transmitter is a nice size for my hand as well as my husbands. The controls are smooth. Haven't given an excellent yet, as I only have had the collar a short time. So far, I'm able to get my dog's attention when he is on a steep slope with thick cover.

    This collar is specifically for our Bullmastiff who is now 6 mo. old. He sometimes needs "reminding"; he's very large, but I am not; so the collar is used sparingly and only when necessary. This model is handy, strap fits his very large neck, and so far it is doing a good job. I'll know more when I've had it a bit longer.

    Has survived snow, dirt, dust, water, and even getting run over once. Mainly only use it for recall now, and the only time it did not work is when I forgot to turn the collar on. Usually only have to charge overnight once or twice during week-long trips (and that can be avoided if charged while coming and going immediately before and after use). I would definitely buy SportDOG products again.

    A little complicated for me. I'm not real good at this stuff! Once I found the level needed for my dog, I like it a lot. Almost a waste of money! She got so good I barely use it on her any more! She still wears it! I just don't push the buttons. It works! I like the adjustable Shock. 3 usually works but 4 will get her attention! As a duck and pheasant hunter, I like the range. If only because of the terrain. The remote is nice once you figure it out. Not hard to do. Don't know that I ever used the continuous button, but is nice to know it's there. Gun Dog Supply recommended 3 collars. I liked the help. 2 of them were cheaper.

    I really like this collar. I upgraded from the SD400 which I liked. I walk and hike in the National Forest in the Smoky Mountains, and I wanted the extra rang. I like having both tone and vibration along with the continuous stimulation, which is a setup option. The beeper and/or the vibration work 95% of the time, with stimulation as the backup. My Chocolate Lab actually comes up to me when he hears me turn it on. It took me a long time to decide on getting my first e-collar, but used properly they are great. My dog loves it because he knows he gets to walk off leash with a certain amount of freedom. I love the my SportDog collars, especially the SD1225.

    I wish there was a rating above excellent. I have what my dog trainer says is the most hard headed dog she has ever had. I ordered the SC 1225 because she would bolt when she was outside. My husband was skeptical because of her personality. Not kidding when I say it has been a life saver. I rarely have to use stimulation on her. The beep sound reminds her to pay attention...she knows what comes next. My other rescue is very timid as he was badly abused. He only needs the tone. I love this collar because you can start out with the tone or as I did with the vibration. It has both options. I am pretty sure I am this collars biggest fan!!!

    Aloha, I bought a Sportdog SD-1825 2-dog system for my girls. Not only did Gun Dog Supply assist me in what model to buy, they gave me links to their website with the info I needed. Once I purchased my e-collars, they shipped them fast. I was a little confused on how to tie in the extra collar when they arrived, so I called them up and they walked me through it step by step. EXCELLENT customer service! I would recommend them to anyone and will be purchasing from them again! Mahalo Aubrie~Kauai

    Have been using this collar hard, daily for the last year. Best training investment I have made. Easy to use, Easy to configure. I like the flexibility of it. Both remote and receiver have been wet, packed with mud, caked with snow, and show very little wear. I would not hesitate to purchase this collar again. Also, the fast recharge time, and long battery time are a big bonus.
