I ordered this to replace one I received from off leash trainer several years ago with previous dog. This one does the job for my 2 2yr old Gsds. Would've been nice to receive the training book that supposedly is advertised in ad but no such luck. Instruction manual for programming 2 dogs is very limited in info. Not a product I would recommend for someone new to e collars.

I have used the mini educator, dogtra 1900 NCP 2 dog system, and the Boss 2 dog system. The boss is by far my favorite. The range is excellent and my dogs respond to very low stimulation with this training tool. I use the system for hiking and off leash training in the yard and could not be more pleased with it.

Wow this has been amazing how much my dog had been point in her behavior has improved so much no more barking random things and she is walking off leash now! But when that collar goes on she now knows let's go to work!!

We love our Educator Mini. This is our 4th Springer and the first to be trained with the Educator system. Our local dog trainer recommended it after basic and intermediate obedience classes, so we decided to hire her to help train our dog. This has worked wonderfully for our highly energetic dog. It has allowed us to go leash free on walks and even can be worn in the water at the lake.

Best collar ever, our dog has never been happier and more free!

I love theses remote collars. I use them all the time with my students, they fit your hand so perfectly, they are durable and the battery last quite awhile!

Extremely helpful customer help.

Dog doesn’t respond will be shipping it back for a refund.

Turns a good boy even better

Your product has greatly improved my dog training experience. Easy to use and easy to dial in a low working level.

Bought this for a traumatized 5 year old 80 pound GSD mix whom I rescued. This dog just looked miserable in his crate at rescue events. He went for over a year and no one wanted him. For some reason I kept going back to him, looking him up on Petfinder... stalking his profile, lol. Anyway, I finally adopted him. He was terrified. Like trembling visually!
Poor boy. On a leash he was a nightmare. Pulling so hard it was dangerous. Not an aggressive bone in his body, he just wanted to smell and see every dog. He would scare people half to death but I knew it was friendly. So I started in earnest to train him. I started with a gentle leader (15.00 on Amazon). He absolutely would not tolerate this head harness. He hated it but we used it for a few weeks anyway. He’d throw major fits, like a toddler.
It was awful. I really started to wonder if he would ever turn the corner on his behavior.
Next up, a Traditional harness. He’s about 20x better than he was, but still a long way to go. We took him to Canton First Monday and he was pretty good because he was very scared.
We passed a harness company that makes ribcage compression harnesses and it was amazing. We bought the harness and a bungee 2 part leash, which is great. This set up took him to 50% over the next month.
Oh, the whole time I am using compressed air (for keyboards) to correct him when we pass other dogs. It usually helped but he was still barking, silent barking (Maybe a Shepherd thing) and jumping at other dogs. Never aggressive, it was always a high pitched play plea. Ok, so next up... a pug life (Joy Ride) harness. This harness is what we use for going to pet friendly stores. It’s great for that purpose and has a seatbelt attachment.
But we were stuck at 50% and I am pretty impatient. Soooo... I went to a plastic prong collar. It worked well and took him to 65%. He was still reactive to dogs and still pulling, somewhat lightly at this point. So, I thought it was time to research shock collars. I decided on the basic one made by Educator. I got it and realized that all I needed was the tone and vibrate functionality. So I sent back the shock one and got this one which allows variable vibration levels, a light and a tone.
It took Andy from 65% to 100% instantly. I was amazed. My neighborhood was amazed.
I can literally walk him off leash with 100% confidence. Of course I do NOT for the most part, but I work with him off leash where possible. I use the tone, usually. I find I rarely need anything because he knows when I put the collar on that he needs to be on his best behavior. I think the shock one may be a better choice for a dog that is more aggressive or stubborn. Andy is sensitive and 100% non-agressive. I am definitely alpha in our pack and he respects me.
Not only has this training helped our working relationship, it has built his confidence exponentially. He no longer cowers when men reach out to pet him. He’s still shy/aloof to strangers, but not scared. Big difference!
He was a risky adoption. He was reported to have guarding issues and attacked another dog in his foster household. With proper leadership and training he has progressed into what may very well be my best dog ever.
Give adult rescues a chance. With proper tools, they can become the best buddies.
He is my 5th consecutive adult rescue with reported behavioral issues. The other 4 proved to be great, balanced, valued pets, as well.

The collar is reliable and consistent. It’s a great tool for most dogs/ handlers when used appropriately. Without a doubt the best brand for an Ecollar.

The mini educator has allowed me to build trust with my dogs and give them the freedom to live their best dog lifes!

In love. Just what I wanted.

Love the collar so far, service has been good. Clip fell apart which is why I purchased a new one.

Has helped out a lot with my stubborn boerboel. Took awhile to get used to but finally got it down. Manual was a little confusing for me but videos made it easier to understand.

Works great for my digs

Works great for my dogs

Quite simple to use and the tone option has been a sleeper feature. I prefer this to the shock.

I love the setup but had to purchase a bungee attachment to make the collar more user friendly. I'm sure my dog appreciated that the collar was easier to put on and remove with the bungee.
