Why I Use SportDOG Brand
Reliability is the number one reason I use SportDOG Brand. I know I can rely on the product when I'm training; I never have to second-guess whether the battery will last all day, whether the collar will work, or if it's going to have a glitch. I want a product that I can take off the charger and go training without having to think about it, and that's exactly what SportDOG brand collars and transmitters have given me – peace of mind.
Favourite Products
I would have to say I have two products that I hope to have in my training arsenal for a long time. The first would have to be my SportDOG 1825 series E-Collar; I don't think I could ever switch to another collar and be satisfied. I love the ability to change my collar's capabilities with the simple push of a button, so I can have exactly what I need for that particular situation.
The second product would have to be SportDOG’s remote launcher system. The ability to run 9 launchers with one receiver is amazing and makes my day a lot easier as a trainer and allows me to have more flexibility and training options.
