I really like the simplicity in understanding the instructions. I used it, and it worked very well. My husband wasn't sure about the idea, but now he loves it because it has helped keep our dogs safe from danger because they come quickly when called. It's a great training device, and very little stimulation was required. I appreciate the help in the video!

Great video but would have liked to see more on some basic commands like "whoa" and retrieving commands used in the field.

Very good advice and instruction for beginners.

The Garmin Sport Pro is easy to use and very effective. It is an excellent tool for getting the dog's (particularly a 6 mo. old Lab) attention directed to the handler. One suggestion for the video: Please date/time stamp each segment of e-collar training video. What may appear as a perfectly trained dog within the first 5-10 minutes of using the collar, is likely pieced-together video over a period of weeks or months. The belt loop clip could be shortened in length, eliminating the need to remove the clip (difficult) prior to charging the hand-held remote. I particularly like the "night light" for training in the evening during periods of the year with short daylight hours. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

The video was extremely helpful. Before watching we were hesitant to start off our 11 week old Brittany with an e-collar. We followed Robins video along with some good Garmin videos and have been very pleased with results and improved behavior all around.

It didn't cover the most basic rule of thumb for e collar use. The dog must understand what is being asked of it before you use any negative reinforcement.

Very good info on training for beginners. Thanks, Steve.

Great collar, easy to use.

This is an excellent video for anyone who has very little knowledge. I felt that it was only a little bit of a help for me because of my previous knowledge with e-collar training.

It was okay for just an intro to ecollars video.

It was very detailed.

I actually never watched it sorry .Curt

I have two dogs and the training is so easy. They learn that when they hear the sound it is time to follow commands. The dogs are a male Golden Retriever and a female Daniff. They are both very smart dogs. People comment on how well they mind and it has been because of using this great tool!

Professional. I especially liked the visual blinking light when stimulation was applied.

Simple and dogs respond to it. Also Robin is beautiful.

the DVD

The presenter did an excellent job sequentially demonstrating the way to train with the Ecollar. She was clear and easy to follow and understand.

The Ecollar video gives you a great perspective of how to begin and continue using it correctly. My dog is now 10 months old and although she wears the collar a lot, I do not have to activate it too much. She is not at all afraid of it and when we put it on she knows that we are going to have fun. I believe using the collar correctly is what makes training her so easy. The video shows you how to do all of this. The dog needs the basic obedience before you use this on her. After that with a little training, it is just a reminder. No yelling needed. This Ecollar video made my training a pleasure. Thanks

It reaffirms what I use the collar for. I only use it to reinforce my wirehairs to hunt close. I mainly use them for grouse, woodcock, and pheasant. Grouse don't hold very well as you already know.

A very nice product, and works as advertised. The instructional DVD was very helpful. For training my pup, I had never used a collar such as this. Now, I will never be without it. A superior product that I will always have. Nice job by Steve and Robin!

Easy instructions and great service, Thank you.

A sensible no-nonsense approach.

Excellent advise for the beginner. It made possible the instant use of the collar. My French Brittany is a very independent dog and the Ecollar has provided the 'long distance' leash capable of reinforcing instructions beyond the useful range of the physical leash. That is, he darn well knows when he is off leash.

Loved the green dot that showed the button pushes and you could really tell what was going on and the reaction of dog.

Very good, Learned a lot even though I have been using electronic collars on my hunting dogs off and on for 30 years.

I learned several things and really liked the video when a dog is under a real hunting situation they are a little more distracted and you could see how the trainer uses the e collar, when the nose is on the brain is off!

The guidance on how to gauge the intensity of the collar impulses with the reaction of the dog is key to use it humanely.

Excellent, very informative and educational video. Ms. Robin MacFarlane is an excellent trainer and teacher. The way video has been created it made very easy to understand the idea behind the e-collar training. Repetitions in a variety of situations with different dogs helped me a lot to understand and follow instruction. I have never used e-collar in the past. Watching this great training tool helped me a lot to be able and train my dog. Without video, I would not be able to know, how to even start using this collar. I sincerely appreciate that this video has been included in the e-collar package. THANK YOU A LOT!

I found the DVD interesting and educational. I liked it a lot.

I did not use it. My dog was already collar condition.

Video was very easy to follow and made training a fun experience. My Labrador responded well and learned commands quickly. I would recommend this video.

Made the process clear and easy!

Good information but seems repetitive, Same basic training information but in different situations.

Just did not apply, TY

It was good, Cash particularly liked watching with me( ha, ha). But I had trouble getting repeated behavior beyond the first few basics without continued hits. After the first few times cash would just shut down and continued correction was just torture. Need to go a little deeper explaining things like that.

Good training DVD for beginners!
