Family pet. We recently moved and our Lab was barking quite a bit at the new house. She was also not consistently obeying commands that she would normally obey as she was somewhat out of sorts from the move. The training collar has worked wonders and two weeks in I RARELY have to use anything other than the pulse/vibrate. My only wish is that the stimulation dial were a little tougher to turn. It can be turned accidentally causing over or under stimulation if you're not careful. GUN DOG SUPPLY did well with the order, and I would certainly use them again.

By: Christopher Butterfield From
Family pet. Works great for us, as we like to walk our dog off lead as much as possible. Also do a lot of hiking. Great tool to control your dog in a humane way while off lead. Thinking of getting the second collar for our other heeler. Very pleased with this system, as it is the perfect size for our mid sized dogs. Also like the intensity control dial. Like how it doesn't click, but rather moves smoothly up and down.

"So effective it almost feels like magic!"

Family pet. So effective it almost feels like magic! She was a bit nervous initially, but trainer helped us through, and she is following commands wonderfully. We tested the collar on ourselves, so we know she is not being harmed. Great product!

"Very thankful our local dog food supplier recommended us to this site!"
By: Nichole From NH
Family pet. My one and a half year old black lab has responded well with this training collar! We tried everything to get him to stop jumping and biting. This has worked wonders, and we rarely have to press any buttons. We just hold it, and he listens. Very thankful our local dog food supplier recommended us to this site!

"The Dogtra iQ Plus Small Dog Training Collar is an excellent product to say the least."
By: Gerard NY
Family pet. The Dogtra iQ Plus Small Dog Training Collar is an excellent product to say the least. After only 3 days, our dog (Chaos) is not running wild, and that is by just putting the collar on her. She listens to every command we give. She swims in our pond, and it is definitely waterproof. A little nick every now-and-again lets her know WE are in charge. When she is out of our visual site (hills on our property) a quick page has her running directly back to us. Absolutely love this product and highly recommend to all. P.S. Ordered on a Friday mid afternoon and received it on Monday. BUY HERE!

"Both handset and receiver are a nice small size."
By: Ron Wasserman From NY
Family pet. Both handset and receiver are a nice small size. Electronics seem to work reliably. Easily changed hardish plastic collar for a softer nylon one.
Vibrate button works well.
Only complaint, on/off switch MIGHT be too sensitive. Too early to tell.

"Very good."

Family pet. Very good. Easy to setup and use. The small dog training collar is sufficient for all, but the most stubborn times. Changing the control box from dog 1 to dog 2 can be a little cumbersome when both dogs are acting out, but it is manageable with practice.

"Good quality"
By: Customer From SF Bay Area
Family pet. I got this for my 50lbs 5 year old Goldendoodle pup, who is a smart and sweet boy, but marches to his own drummer. Cannot keep him out of mud puddles or prevent him from digging up HUGE clumps of grass and then eating it. Sure he comes for a treat, but then resumes undesirable behavior right away. He knows the command "leave it", but chooses to ignore it most of the time. I purchased this Dogtra with the intention of only using the vibrator function, and so far that has worked. Recall is getting better. Steve was kind enough to include a set of vibration only probes with my order. Thank you! I wish the collar had an on/off switch, and because I purchased the plus model the slider moves a bit too easily from I to II, but other than that, I am really happy with this device. Good quality, but pricey.

Customer Review #10840
By: Walker Sahag From LA
Family pet. I bought this to replace a Sport Dog training collar. I really do not like the intensity control knob on this, because it just has an even rolling dial. The other one 'clicked' as I turned from 1 to 2 to 3 etc. The problem is that in the dark or when not looking at the dial (90% of the time I'm using this) you have no idea what the setting is that you are on. BAD!

Gun Dog Supply Exclusive: One Hour BASIC OBEDIENCE Ecollar Training DVD
$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.
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.
The Dogtra iQ is a low to medium power, expandable 1-dog system with a simple 3-button design that lets you train your companion pet or house dog effectively and easily. It features a 400 yard (1/4 mile) range, a small waterproof collar receiver for a perfect fit on smaller dogs (10 lbs. and up), and a compact water resistant transmitter.
The iQ training collar offers a choice of continuous stimulation, momentary ("nick") stimulation, and non-stimulating vibration ("page").

The Dogtra iQ has multiple intensity levels, which allows you to choose the stimulation that is best for your dog.
100 Gradual Intensity Levels of both Nick (Momentary) and Continuous Stimulation can be quickly adjusted with the dial on the side of the transmitter. This means that you can instantly adjust intensity whenever distractions increase.
Teach yardwork/obedience and enforce known commands with lower levels of stimulation.
Use higher levels to stop unwanted chasing or to overcome strong distractions.
Install the included nylon contact points to use as a non-stimulating Vibration Only collar.
Dogtra iQ Plus Range
Up to 1/4 mile range which is ample for most dog training.
Actual range depends on training conditions, including weather, terrain, presence of cover, etc.
