Why I Use SportDOG Brand
I use SportDOG products because they are reliable and versatile. I use the Add-A-Dog option and the collars are easy to use. They have never let me down.
Favourite Products
I use the SD-1800 for all my training along with the Add-A-Dog® collars. I also use the DSL-400 beeper on all my pointers and pointing labs. I also believe the SBC-18 Bark collar is the best on the market.
