Dogtra 1900X E-Collar for Dog Training - 3/4 Mile Range, for Dogs 35 lbs+, IPX9K Waterproof, 100 Stimulation Levels, Vibration, Tone, Rechargeable - Ideal for Dog Owners and Professional Trainers

I love this training collar. Works great and if used properly you can really train your dog. Batteries last a very long time. Very well built. Built with metal and not plastic. Vibration is strong and buttons feel positive. Very nice collar.

After buying the cheap collars that did absolutely nothing on my giant escape artist of a dog (she wouldn’t even feel it at max power) I bought this collar. Yes it’s expensive but it works. So first of all the range is amazing. I live in the middle of the woods and even with my dog running full speed through the woods 200yards away it works. Then the vibrate is really powerful. The shock setting, be very careful. For stubborn dogs anything less than 50 won’t do much at all. But The max shock setting is very powerful, which sometimes is what is needed on stubborn 130lbs dogs. But still, I felt bad when I used it. The good news is it stops my dog dead in her tracks. And she runs back to the house at the speed of light. It’s not something she can just ignore. The collar is also very well made and very easy to put on and off. All in all, I am very pleased with this purchase. Should have bought it long ago. Well worth the money.

THIS COLLAR HAS CHANGED MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY DOG FOR THE BETTER! I have a stubborn 1 year old in tact male Great Dane who’s had a tough time with his recall in high distraction settings. Before purchasing this collar, I went down a rabbit hole trying to find the best collar for a giant breed dog. This one consistently came out on top. After having the collar for about a month I have to agree that it is 100% worth the money. This collar (Dogtra 1900x) has been amazing for nipping the times he wants to ignore me right in the butt. Against my better judgement, I tried some of the cheaper E-collars you can buy off of Amazon, and they didn’t phase my dog at all. And I mean AT ALL!! This collar has 127 levels and my Dane consistently works at somewhere between a 20-25. There was one instance where he wasn’t recalling, and I slowly worked the collar up to about a 50. Let’s just say he hasn’t ignored me since. I can’t imagine what the stim would be like at a higher level than that. Learn from my mistakes and just buy the nice collar from the start. I know it sucks that it’s expensive, but trust me it’s been worth it. This collar has made communication with my dog clear, and has allowed my dog more freedom than ever. Pros: -The receiver on the collar is large which is great for large/giant breed dogs. -The “continuous” setting on the remote has been amazing for clear communication with my dog and his recall. -I love that there is a “boost” function so you can consistently work at a lower level “stim” but the option is there if you need it. -You can make fine adjustments with the levels and really dial in your dogs working settings. -The battery life on this thing is amazing! I maybe use the collar twice a day 30-45 minutes at a time, and after about two weeks was when I could tell it needed to be charged. -I haven’t needed to change out the prongs on the receiver, but I like that Dogtra has a few different prong options if your dog is allergic to the metal or has a longer coat. -The range on the collar is amazing, and is true to what they say the range is. Cons: -I honestly don’t have anything bad to say about this collar. I’ve seen some people complain that the “beep” isn’t all that loud, but forget the beep is meant for their dog and not for them. The beep isn’t necessarily meant to be a function that should be used to try locating your dog. If you’re struggling with your stubborn dogs recall, or honestly anything else that can trained with an E-collar do yourself a favor and splurge on this collar!

We have an 85 pound 9 month old Doberman with very high drive and a very hard head. We purchased a cheaper collar first and it has ZERO effect. The vibration sort of got his attention, but the shock feature did not work at all, no matter how tight or which posts we used he didn’t even register that he felt it. Zero effect. It really just pissed me off more in the moment honestly. This collar is in a whole different realm. The vibration is strong. The constant vibration option gets his attention when he is in full on chuckle head mode and needs a few seconds to understand he is being corrected and I’ve never turned the shock over halfway up and it is more than enough to get his attention. The nik feature works very well and the boosted nik is absolutely undivided attention. I’ve never had to use shock constant feature at all. It did cost about ten times the amount we paid for the first collar but this unit is miles above those cheaper units. I will update this after more testing but I see where the money went. His behavior has turned around in a week, where we wasted 4 months with the junk collar before. I was beginning to think we were going to have to rehome him. This got him in line immediately and the whole family can rest easier and relax more. We can just enjoy him again.

This did not work for my reactive dog. He trains really well with small training treats and over the past 6 months his reactivity has improved. He can go without barking at a dog unless the dog barks first. And, he plays with other dogs well at daycare. I had hoped this collar would speed up that process. The problem with this color is the buzz feature did nothing for him. He didn't even notice it. The sound only worked when he could hear it and if he had started barking, he couldn't hear it. The shock... he never felt it. Or, if he did, he never responded. My dog knows sit, down, no, heel (most of the time), corner (for riding elevators... he goes to the back corner) and is learning come and stay. He knows sit, down, no, corner in French as well. He learned all these commands without an e-collar. He still needs work for walking on more narrow city sidewalks or riding public transportation, but I don't hold out hopes that this collar will work for that since he doesn't seem to respond to any of the features except the sound when he can hear it. The collar is also huge. I've seen other dogs wearing e-collars and they didn't stand out like this collar does. The lack of easy-to-read instructions for a product like this (I don't want to have to pull out a magnifying glass or hunt down instructions online) is why I gave it 4 stars. I didn't expect them to teach me how to train my dog, but I did expect them to have better instructions on how to use their product. This is an expensive product, especially when it doesn't work for a dog.
