The Delta Sport is a three-quarter mile range system.
Up to 36 levels of stimulation, both continuous and momentary.
Tone, vibration, AND a no-bark mode.
A good size that fits in the hand really well.
Expandable up to three dogs with an LCD screen. You move from dog to dog to dog.
Steve training ROXY with a Garmin Delta XC.
The issues that we saw with the original Delta were mainly based around the stimulation setup, the bark collar and the lack of long probes.
Garmin fixed the stimulation issue by going back to the same type of stimulation range that Tri-Tronics normally uses. This is one of our most popular setups and it fits the a wide group of dogs.
They also added both direct set levels on the bark collar and the option of using the bark collar at the same time that you are using the training features.
The Delta Sport collar now comes with both long and short contact points.
One of my favorite features is that you can have different stimulation levels for each dog. So if you have a dog that requires low level stimulation, you can set that. When you move to your second dog you can have a higher level.
The Delta Sport is a good, small collar.
It's going to fit on dogs about 8 pounds and up.
Everything is rechargeable.
Everything is waterproof.
It comes with a one year warranty.
What's New in the Delta Sport XC
Rapidly increase or decrease the stimulation level:
Rapidly increase or decrease the stimulation level using the new side button feature. Just press and hold to increase multiple levels.
Set the number of dogs on your system:
The Delta XC Series gives you the option of having a one dog unit, a two dog unit or a three dog unit. If you are not running multiple dogs, you can remove this option and only have the dogs on the handheld that you actually have. You can always add the second and third dog options back to the handheld if you add additional dogs down the road.
Long and short contact points:
The original Delta collars came with short probes installed that were not removable or replaceable with long probes. The Delta Sport XC comes with regular (short) probes installed but long probes are also included and can easily be swapped. These are the same probes used on the Garmin PRO units.
New stimulation pattern:
The original Delta units had a stimulation pattern that didn't match anything that Tri-Tronics had used before. It was much lower on the top end and we ran across a number of dogs that it didn't work with in high drive situations. To fix this issue, Garmin has made the Delta XC stimulation pattern match the one in the Garmin PRO systems. Don't take this to mean that this is a substantially "hotter" collar and it might be too strong for your dog. The low end is still very low, and the middle numbers are also the same. The top end is now what we expect out of a Tri-Tronics system and I don't expect to see any issues with dogs blowing off the stimulation.
Modified side collar loops for a better fit:
The Delta XC Series has slightly modified collar strap loops that allow the receiver to fit better on dogs with larger necks. These modified loops allow the collar to open wider and place the contact points in a better position on the neck compared to the original Delta collar.
New Bark Limiter options:
The Delta Sport XC bark collar has the same auto rise option as the original Delta Sport, but it also has both a vibration only and a 1-18 direct level setting option. This way if you know what level it takes to get your dog to stop his nuisance barking, you can select it from the transmitter. This also gives you the option of having bark collars on up to three dogs with three different levels at the same time.
Bark correction and training at the same time:
The Delta Sport XC lets you use the bark collar and still have the training collar available at the same time. To use this feature, you select the bark collar / training collar mode, select your bark collar level and then return to training. The bark collar level can be Auto-Rise, Vibration Only or Direct Level. Once you have selected your level and returned to training mode, you can raise and lower the training stimulation level without changing the bark limiter level.
The Garmin Delta SPORT remote training collar is both simple and effective using proven Tri-Tronics technology. It features a simple, push-button design with an easy-to-read LCD display so you can correct your dog instantly, for a stronger connection between behavior and training. The Garmin Delta SPORT XC also features a built-in Bark Limiter that uses advanced bark correction technology to help correct unwanted barking.
Gun Dog Supply Exclusive: One Hour BASIC OBEDIENCE Ecollar Training DVD
$40 Value -- You get this FOR A PENNY 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.
Also features a fully adjustible built-in BarkLimiter with Advanced Bark Correction for more effective training in the field and a quieter kennel at home.
Interchangeable long and short stainless steel contact points for all breeds, all coat lengths
Waterproof transmitter and dog device (IPX7)
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries in both the handheld and dog devices with approx. 60 hour run time
3/4 inch collar strap
One year warranty
Garmin Delta SPORT XC Batteries
Lithium Ion batteries
Two hour rapid charge system for the transmitter and collar
User-replaceable, rechargeable batteries in the collar and transmitter
Stimulation from the Garmin Delta SPORT XC
The Delta SPORT XC has multiple intensity levels, which allows you to choose the stimulation that is best for your dog
Intensity levels can be quickly adjusted, meaning 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
36 levels of continuous and momentary stimulation, plus non-stimulating tone and vibration functions (18 high + 18 low)
Bark Limiter no-bark mode for controlling unwanted barking
Garmin Delta SPORT XC Range
Up to 3/4-mile range which is ample for off leash dog training or for hunting with medium range field dogs. Actual range depends on training conditions, including weather, terrain, presence of cover, etc.

I purchased the same Delta sport collar eight or nine years ago and we love it. It’s waterproof, reliable, and the collar stays charged. I have purchased the same collar again because we have additional beagles to run for rabbit hunting. I recommend this collar if you’re a rabbit hunter. You need the reliability of the collar to work in the field and the marsh. We lost one of these collars while rabbit hunting and came back a week later, the dogs found the collar. We charged it and the collar works fine after a week out in the weather. Great product.
Pros
Waterproof, durable, keeps the charge, reliable
Cons
None that I can think of

Delta Sport ecollar
January 6, 2021
I love the Delta Sport! This product has been worth every penny and helped to literally save the life of my Aussie whom I rescued from our local shelter. This dog did not trust people, was afraid of everything and the slightest pull with a leash caused everything to get worse. The Delta Sport allowed me to to start over in the the human/dog relationship. Tone just means come close and pay attention to me. I researched a lot of collars and had to take a deep breath before making the decision to spend the $$. I‘m old world and I worried about buying over the internet. Would the product be good? Is the business trustworthy? The answers were Yes and Yes! The product is quality and the service from Gun Dog Supply is excellent! I have since purchased again and have no regrets. Thanks, Steve!
Pros
Quality product. It is sturdy and operates over a long range allowing for confidence and reliability in use. It has settings for tone, vibration, and shock and the many setting options allow for a great deal of customization. The bark limiter is a separate function and automatic. One controller can be used with three separate collars.
Cons
None

E collars are wonderful. Everything we had hoped for and more.
November 3, 2020
We had previously ordered a set of three and they are fantastic. We purchased them for our 4 standard poodles because of their barking. We purchased a home in MS recently and my wife will be taking 2 of them with her. We now need one more collar. I am doing this review because of our recent purchase of 2 more E collars. Unfortunately we have received only one collar(black). When I received it, I immediately called the gun dog supply Co. to make them aware that I had received only one collar. McKenzie was really nice and had informed me of the other being back ordered. We have just recently returned from visiting our home in MS. We hadn’t received the other collar as of yet so I called again. I was informed again that it was still back ordered and maybe a week or two. Okay.
Pros
But just to reiterate, these E collars have really helped us. They have allowed us to control our dogs barking by just using the tone feature. When they hear the beeping sound, they stop and immediately make their way back to us or our back patio door. Love the item and our poodles!
Cons
In the near future, will need to replace color coded collars as they have been chewed on somewhat. Not really a con...just normal wear and tear.

This met my expectations
Pros
Relatively easy to use.
Bark collar works well.
Cons
Relatively short battery life on collar.
Button modes aren't intuitive, and don't offer low-med-high mode.

Works great
March 18, 2022
Collar was shipped fast. Works really well and battery lasts a long time. The only thing I didn't like is the factory collar with a regular buckle and punched holes. Bought a replacement lupine collar with a quick connect buckle.
Pros
Reliable. Long battery life.
Cons
The nylon strap that can easily be replaced.
Also has detachable clip used to charge the collar. Would be better if it wasn't needed to charge. Might be easy to lose the charging clip while not in use.

Works great but collars are poorly made
March 6, 2022
We’ve had two of these for about 6 months. They work great and have good reception in the woods. My only complaint is the collar itself. It’s very cheap and cracks. We’ve trimmed them down and now we’ve lost one due to it breaking out in the woods. Garmin needs to step up their collar design!

I have used this now for a couple weeks and it works just as described. I have been able to reinforce the basic commands with my 14 mo. old griffon (who has been a bit stubborn) quickly. We are expanding training rapidly with good results. The range is good and once you get used to the controller it’s quite intuitive.
Pros
Range
Ease of use

I wanted a multiple dog tone/vibrate/correction for around the house with bark correction.
September 16, 2021
Still early, the tone vibrate and correction work very easy to switch between the dogs. The stimulus levels are not as strong as my Alpha so you need to be careful and test the stem levels. I have not tried the bark correction yet.
Pros
Multiple dogs and easy to switch between.

I run a small dog training business and this collar is exactly what I was looking for. It has worked perfectly for a wide range of dogs. From Cocker Spaniels to German Shepherds this collar has the right features and settings to be the perfect collar for all dogs.
Pros
Compact Size of Collar
Battery Life
Bark Limiter
Easy to Use
Multiple Settings and Functions
Cons
The only Con is that I wish it came with a carrying case.

Great Customer Service
July 16, 2021
Literally just ordered the Garmin Delta SPORT XC Remote Training + BARK Collar and got a call from Customer Service questioning why the ship to address was FL and the billing address was WA. We’ve moved and haven’t closed on our house in FL yet so the call just reinforces the fact that GDS cares about their customers and ensures that purchases are not fraudulent. Well done!

Works Perfect For My Danes
April 9, 2021
My 2 ten month old Danes had begun nuisance barking and I needed something that would inhibit their barking as well as be used as a training device. While Garmin is a brand I trust, I was a bit skeptical after seeing some reviews. But it works great. I have one Dane that is deaf so the vibration mode was very important. And when the vibration mode doesn't get a response, I found that not much shock is needed either. I'm not a fan of the buckle collar so I wish I would have ordered the model that came with the Lupin collar. (I have since ordered two). So if you are reading this review, order the Garmin Delta SPORT XC Bundle with the Lupin collar from GunDog - they are the ONLY online store that offers this option. Overall, for as much as I spent on these Garmin collars, I am well pleased!
Pros
There are 2 modes for bark inhibiting and various training modes. The manual is a big help in determining the settings. So while there are many buttons and lots of options it is easy to use - just be sure to read the manual. Also, I love the placement of the power button because this ensures there's no accidently powering off the device during playtime. I'm replacing training collars where the power button was all chewed up during playtime.
Cons
The bark inhibitor is only available on the more expensive SPORT model. This seems a bit ridiculous because any dog - whether a sporting dog or not - can develop barking issues therefore this feature should be made available on all Garmin models.

I purchased this product on the recommendation of my dog’s trainer. Since he uses the same unit on his dogs, he was very familiar with it. He helped me set it up and we began training immediately. It has really helped with my dog’s training and the price is reasonable. I would recommend this Garmin product.

Great Product for Training and Bark Control
March 19, 2021
This collar is the best of both worlds! We needed a bark collar but we also wanted the remote capabilities to help with our stubborn pup and some behaviors that he just would not stop. We always give the tone with a command first and now that is all that is needed - we very rarely escalate!
Pros
Bark collar and control in one
Cons
Collar requires charging more than anticipated but still holds a charge for several days

Worth every penny
March 19, 2021
I purchased the Delta Sport XC for my 2 Large Dogs, 1 German Shepherd and 1 Pyrenees Mix. I was using a low cost 2 dog system which I purchased online. It was always in need of a charge, the settings were never accurate, there was no precision. It was either full on or nothing , no matter what setting it was on. Finally I decided to invest in a training system that was proven. I purchased the Garmin and could not be happier. Both dogs require different levels of stimulation and are very responsive to instruction when using the system properly. I would recommend this product all say long!
Pros
They hold a charge very long, easy to navigate, has the Dog Bark option. waterproof, and plenty of information provided, as well as online.
Cons
I don't really see any Cons as of yet, As long as you are actively training and not just walking your dogs with the collar on it is very easy to Navigate between the 2 dogs to get the desired results. I do recommend one on one training as well as 2 dogs simultaneously. You will find both dogs responding to one command easier after some one on one training. I really don't see any Cons. The control may not be like any one you have used before, but just like getting used to a new TV remote, keep using it and your fingers automatically know where to go!

It works but not my favorite that I have owned.
March 17, 2021
I bought these collars after my SportDog finally wore out after several years and a lot of use because I was very happy with the Garmin Alpha 200i I bought earlier in the year and it had a built in bark limiter. I also hoped that these would use the same chargers as my Alpha, they don't. The bark limiter SEEMS to be working now that I put the longer prongs on but the directions are unclear if the remote needs to be on for the bark limiter to work. I am not a fan of the feel of the buttons or the LCD screen. I would much prefer a physical dial to adjust stimulation and a toggle to choose a dog. Honestly, these collars work and seem to be good quality and work as designed, but I'd go back to SportDog in a heartbeat if they had a built in bark limiter on their training collars.
Pros
Work as designed
Cons
LCD screen and keys instead of a dial
Doesn't share the same charger as other Garmin collars

Garmin Delta Sport XC - Great Product
March 14, 2021
I've been very pleased with the Garmin Delta Sport XC. I'm not an experienced dog trainer, but have found the product very easy to use. I selected the Garmin based upon a recommendation of neighbor who has a different Garmin collar, and on my prior experience with Garmin's aviation GPS products. We live in the Rocky Mountains and my dog has the ability to cover ground quickly, thus I was particularly interested in the longer range provided by the Sport XC.
In addition, the customer support of Gun Dog Supply has been excellent. I had to return a related item and they had a replacement on its way to me on the basis of a telephone call.
Pros
Simple system of buttons; wide variety of programs; long battery life.
Cons
A better neck lanyard would have been nice.

Absolute game changer!!
January 28, 2021
Changed my dog and the way we interact in two sessions and only gets better with each session. It is not cruel or hurtful if you take the time to learn how to use the tool. My dog actually likes the challenge of getting it right, wagging her tail the entire time. In fact unless I am working on a new command, I rarely ever have to use anything but vibrate. My dog (lab/pointer mix) picked it up quick and now responds to the vibrate.
Absolute game changer if you want a well trained dog.
Thanks Steve

January 25, 2021
So far, I am really happy with the Garmin Delta Sport XC. Bought primarily for the bark limiter, which I haven't yet dialed in, but have seen an improvement in my lab's barking in the fenced yard. The training aspect has worked really well.
Pros
Intuitive use, and long lasting charge.

I have a stubborn Beagle/ Great Pyrenees puppy that is very head strong!! Trainer suggested using this product and it was money well spent! The results have far exceeded my expectations if used correctly. I would highly recommend this to anyone! I should say, I have raised dogs for years and never had the need to use this type of product before as I have always been reluctant. Made a believer if used properly. Great product & would highly recommend it!!
Pros
Works well & great price & easy to use.

weak
December 30, 2020
I am extremely disappointed in these collars. These things are so weak that the dogs barley respond to them at all the vibrate and beep are practically useless even with them turned up all the way. For this kind of money i thought these things would be the best things ever but my 80 dollar amazon collars are ten times more powerful and better than these things are.
Pros
I can return them
Cons
Expensive, poor quality, weak, and just flat dont work

Solid construction, well designed, strong and durable
December 23, 2020
An excellent training aid for very active dogs.Works very well in my experience, dogs learn quickly what is expected of them. Must combine corrections with rewards to be fully effective.
Pros
Very well designed collar unit. Remote control is easily retrieved from the pocket when needed.
Cons
Remote control unit is too fussy when setting it up to control more than one collar. It's also not possible to set up one remote control unit to control two collars if you have another remote control unit already configured for one of the collars. With two remote control units for two collars, if you want to set up one remote control to control two collars, that will wipe out the link to the collars by the other remote control unit.That was disappointment.
