Easy to set up and use for our dog. We purchased this one for our second dog. The only way this collar could be better would be if it included the longer prongs for long hair dogs.

The first 50 pages were about how he picked out 5 dogs--I am only interested in one. Also that was the topic of his first dog whisper show on NG, so if you saw that one didn't need to buy the book. Ready to return and sell used. Rating: 1 / 5 I am so sorry I wasted my money on this book. The first 50 pages were about how he picked out 5 dogs–I am only interested in one.

Purchased this one and had a heck of time getting it to work. Found out the battery was about dead. If it wasn't for the battery I would have rated this a 5 star item.

Schierling Mon, 01 Feb 2010 22:48:56 +0000 http://dogobediencetrainingguide.info/?p=35#comment-62 I read this book and really wanted to get some good positive insight. I found the author very judgemental and accusing that any other method of training was abusive. I'm not sure what obedience classes she went to but not all classes are full of choke chains, beatings and abuse. <br /> <br />This book is about how to make your life, the people in your life and everything about your life revolve around your dog. <br /> <br />When this author recommended either wearing gloves or metal splints on your fingers for dogs going after your hands so hard they draw blood when you treat them... I thought that was just way too far. I would never beat my dog, but giving him a light tap so he isn't ripping my fingers to shreds and drawing blood is by no means abusive... <br /> <br />There was good info about shaping and positive rewards but many other trainers teach these same concepts. I think this book went way too far in the keeping everything positive 100% of the time. Rating: 1 / 5 I read this book and really wanted to get some good positive insight.

Even though the pad is not thick, it's better than what I had been using and I do recommend it for small dogs.

I didn't find this product any more absorbant. Somehow it ends up leaking under the plastic. So far the best I've found is only sold in packages of 3, "Clifford the Big Red Dog non- slip pads". I've tried them all!. Rating: 3 / 5 I have a small Bichon with chronic renal failure and when she urinates it’s quite a bit, as she is unable to concentrate her urine.
