I’m starting to research E collars for the pup. I realize that this is somewhat of a Ford/Chevy or Marcum/Vexilar topic, but:
1) What do/have you used?
2) Likes/dislikes?
3) Type of dog? (pointer or not?)
The trainer I’ve been talking with recommended the Dogtra 2500 T&B. I like the beeper since my pup is a pointer, and I like that the beeper and receiver are one unit, so there is less bulk around the neck. It does not have a “vibrate” function–I’m not sure if that is a big deal or not.
I’ve looked a bit at comparable Sport Dog and Garmin/Tri-Tronics offerings, but their beepers seem so much larger. Ripley will be a big dog, so that’s probably not much of an issue, but more compact seems better, in my eyes.
