Your pups are beautifull! I tried looking on your website but didnt see what the prices for your pups were?

Im still trying to understand the dummy collar thing. What does using it accomplish? Trick him into thinking he has a real collar on?

Bob, whats odd is, this sudden change in behavior happend immediately when i first put it on. With out it, i dont exist in his world. Up to this point be for the collar i did all training on leash. We have spent along time just trying to get heel. Id love to be able to give him a command like...

Aye bob, i bough him at 1.5 years old. His previous owner did all those thing you just suggested. I even saw him run newt in the training pen. He was hunted one season before i got him. I know his previous owner used a collar on him, i just dont know which one. Oddly right now, its collar...

Im confidant that i have established im the domanint one. He does the pack social cleaning routine on me. Im gonna try your recoomendations, but about the heel thing, do i just say heel while he is on the conduit, and reward with a treat or just say heel occasionaly till he gets it.

I wonder how all this would have turned out if i had gotten as a young pup instead of as a adult.... To late now, my kids love em, and i need to get this obediance thing down. He is of little use as a hunter if i cant get him to atleast come back.

Bob id love to, but he is proving to be very hard to train. Which is why i bought this collar lol. Id love to rabbit hunt him next year.

He is three years old. I have only had him for a year and a half. His previous owner had a ecollar on him for rabbit hunting. I have been trying unscussfully for that time frame to get him to even have any semblence of reliability with the basic obediance commands. There is a lady here who...

Im kinda at a loss about teaching him heal sit stay with out the collar. How do you get a beagle to do it with out the collar?? For heal i have been using leash corrections, but i see those as the same thing as using the collar. I guess im at a loss as to how to teach him heal with out...

Edit to add, My dog is a Beagle. Well, I just got my dogtra 280ncp a few days ago and a little while ago i got it off thee charger and put it on. I went through the adjustment range on nick trying to find the minimum stim lvl to use on him. I had gotten to lvl 15 when i remembered that a...

Dakotazeb, thankyou for the link to the ebay. I just purchased the 280ncp. It was a definate savings over the retail price localy. I should have it by the end of the month. Thanks all for the insights in this thread, i look forward to giving a report of its effectiveness on my beagle as soon as...

I do have it narrowed down, but i want to keep my options open. I just want to see if there is anything else out there cheaper then the dogtra that will do just as good.

I was at the collar clinic and would love to buy a reconditioned collar but some of them look like t hey have only limited amount of stimulation levels. My dog needs the stim, but from what i have seen at demos for other products(demo'd on him) he only needs a low lvl of stim. If you guys have...

HI, im reaching out to the community to help me pick a e collar. Im looking at 2 dogtra products and need help deciding which to get. Im looking at the 280npc and 300m. The 280 ncp has 127stim lvls vs 100 for the 300m, they both have a 800 yard range, and the 300m is cheaper. Ill be working...
