I rarely give 5 stars. If I get what I want and everyone was nice about it, it is a 3 star average experience. So this was exceptional. I got a battery to replace one in a collar I had. I lost one of the 4 screws. Couldn’t find anything at a local hardware store that fit. I called in asking to buy 4 screws - this was my problem and I was willing to pay for my error. The screws were sent to me free, no mess, no hassles.

Our dogs trainer Hilton Butler recommended the mini educator. Our daugher has a large 1 1/2 yr chocolate lab. The educator is easy to use and the dog responds quickly. Our daugher has been able to reinforce behaviors and boundaries with the educator. The educator has an adjustable shock as well as a vibration. The dog is now responding to the vibration and rarely needs to be reminded by a mild shock. Strongly recommend this training tool. Great for leash training, helping a dog to stay in certain areas, barking etc.

My Jack Russel can be herself now! No leashes! And no worries that I won't be able to call her back! I searched a lot for an electronic collar that was rated for a 12lb dog. When I can across ecollars I was so excited!!! I absolutely love everything about it! The user friendly remote, the small dog friendly points, the easy on off process, quick charging, and the fact that it is waterproof! My dog is a farm dog and she's always getting into mud/water/etc and it's held up wonderfully! I would recommend this product to everyone!!! I saw a whole personality change in my dog when we quit using a leash on a regular basis. She's free and still safe! Total works changer!!! Thank you ecollars for such a wonderful product!!!!

Was using the k-9 400 on my GSD for about a year and it was working great except when he got highly distracted like when a family member came over and he was so over-the-top excited and trying to jump up on them he didn't even notice the stimulation on the highest setting, even though a very low setting worked great for most other situations. I decided I needed to upgrade his collar to a more suitable one for his higher tolerances. I spoke to someone at Educator Collars and found that the k-9 800 was just what I needed. The stimulation levels were the same until 60 then they were about 30% higher than the 400 series from 60-100. The collar itself is a little larger but isn't too big or bulky for my large dog. He responds well to the higher stimulation when needed, which is what I was looking for and I can still use a low setting for the majority of the time. He also responds very well to the vibration mode, which I'm able to use instead of the stimulation in many situations. The K-9 800 is a perfect match for our needs at all times and the folks at Educator Collars were very helpful in deciding on a new collar and gave options for upgrading my other collar that would have saved me some money from buying a whole new collar, but I wanted to have the option of using the other collar with my smaller dog. Shipping was fast and I would highly recommend purchasing from Educator Collars.

Directions for use are very sketchy. We have a professional trainer coming tomorrow to help us introduce puppy to collar and begin use.

It was shipped fast but the instructions were terrible and no youTube video reference on how to replace the batteries. It was easy but confusing at first. I had a hard time with the "ring" it wouldn't fit so I used the old

Love these collars, I was able to turn my former flight risk GSD into a very trustworthy off leash hiking companion with just low stim training. It was a really low stress training process for both of us as well. Do your research and learn how to use these appropriately and you'll have an excellent tool at your disposal. I've also had a great experience with customer service reps as I recently needed to switch one model out for another within the 30 day window, very nice to deal with.

I'm a positive reinforcement dog sports competitor competing at advanced levels of many sports. I was totally against "shocking a dog into compliance" and never considered getting an e-collar. However, I recently adopted a digging, chewing, barking, runaway Jack Russell. Having had a Jack Russell in the past, I knew that even 3 hours a day of positive training did not cure him of running off and killing other animals, and he could never be walked off-leash. With the new dog, I decided to try an e-collar to stop the behavior immediately so that I could keep her safe and also have "good" behavior to reward right off the bat. I did loads of research into different collars and picked the Educator due to its high ratings and features, including 100 levels, a light, a warning tone that can be turned on/off, and even a locator if you lose the remote. I am super happy with this collar. We keep it on a very low level, like a cell phone vibration. Just annoying enough that the dog finds it easier to comply than continue the unwanted behavior. When she complies, we use food treats as a reward. With this collar, I was safely walking her at a county park off-leash just weeks after adoption, with running bunnies near the trail, and she did NOT run after them. I also taught her not to bolt through gates or try to dig out under the fence. It was also great for teaching her not to charge the fence at my neighbor's big dog. After about 8 weeks of daily use, we now only need it for something like a county park walk and she is well behaved about not barking, digging, etc. The collar is so easy to use, extremely reliable and consistent, and very easy to put on the charger, which I do every night before heading to bed. The collar never "goes off" on its own and is very responsive. The half-mile range works through several floors of my house/basement. I can be in my home office and give her a "zap" for barking in the yard on the far side of the house and a level down. Because she doesn't relate it with me, she thinks her barking caused it, so has pretty much figured that barking doesn't pay. Anyway, I love this collar and highly recommend it. Forgot to mention that the light feature is really nice. You can basically turn your dog into a flashlight to see where he is at night, or to light up the area while you search for a lost toy at night, etc. Educator really got it right.

The phone doesn't ring long before someone picks up and is willing to take the time to help and explain things. They know their products well. I purchased the collar for my little 9 pound terrier mix and got some excellent tips. I like the product too but do wish they could build a smaller device as it is big and clunky on little Daisy's neck. Excellent customer service.
