Dog Training Collar, Dog Shock Collar with Remote Control, 2500FT and 4 Training Modes Beep, Vibration, Electric Shock, IP67 Waterproof Rechargeable E-Collar for All Breed by MEGWR

Honestly for under $25 this collar has been good so far. Not great, good. I adopted a “trained” at a boarding school 7 month old lab puppy mixed with something big (she towers over my existing pure lab who weighs 85 pounds). The owner is moving states due to the company moving and that’s how I got her. That training school owes her a refund as this dog doesn’t even know a sit and at 100 pounds already, she’s way too strong to be this wild.

We tried alternate methods first but it turns out after calling the previous owner, she actually encouraged this bad behavior like jumping up on people, digging and scratching everything, and jumping from couch to her glass coffee table (I’m surprised she didn’t fall through) to the chair. She also has the dangerous habit of eating everything she can get her mouth on, including road kill and jumping up on the counter to grab unsafe foods and digging in the trash for dangerous items like bones and q tips. She also encouraged mouthy play and this dog bites hard enough with her adult teeth that I have large bruises and jaw bite marks on my arms, legs, and hands. Someone mistook it for hand grab marks and asked if I was being abused and if I was safe at home, that’s how bad it is.

Using a leash and annoying vocal sounds didn’t work. Right away with the collar’s beep as a warning and then a level 6 vibration she realized she needed to stop whatever she was doing. It might take 2 rounds of vibration on high when she’s mildly hyper. It does nothing for full on hyper at any level vibration. Within a week there’s been some improvement. Not a miracle but she’s not quite as wild child.

The beep is pretty useless as an attention getter/distraction but it does function to warn her something else is coming. It would be nice if there were different sounds, like a beep, an annoying attention getting sound, and a click you can use as a clicker for longer distance hearing for when the dog does something correct.

That said, the shock part of the shock collar isn’t very shocking. I thought maybe it’s because she had too much fur but that’s not it. I started it on low but noticed it had no effect. Where the vibration makes her shake her head the shock does nothing. I tried it on myself with a level 9 and it was barely noticable on my palm with both prongs touching. I double checked the prongs were in right and tried again. I’ve had mosquito bites that were more annoying. She’s been out in the rain for a few bathroom breaks on a rainy day so I don’t know if that killed it or it was never very strong to begin with.

I’ll admit if this were a $100+ collar I’d be more angry but I’m taking the price into consideration. It holds the battery for a long time – the first few days were practically non-stop vibrations with a few shocks and the collar and remote still had almost full charge. I’ve been able to use it from a distance of about 100 feet away but in an open area of my fenced in yard, not through walls (I haven’t tried since I keep eyes on her all the time as I don’t trust her out of sight yet). It does work through solid wood doors from 10 feet away (she likes to try and chew the door when I tend to my existing dogs while keeping her separated for now).

The light up collar feature is pretty useless on her as her fur covers enough of the screen that you can’t see it. It’s just the weird “w” looking thing on the collar that lights up, not the whole unit on the collar. Plus they say to move where the unit sits on the neck but gravity means it’s down in the 6 o’clock position within 10 minutes of putting it on, so it’s always in the same spot. I don’t want to make the collar tighter as it’s already pretty tight and I do remove it every night. The collar comes with a magnetic cable to charge and the remote comes with a standard USB-c phone cable.

The remote is pretty simple. I don’t like the fact that to change a function’s level setting you need to zap the dog with that function first to get into that function to change the level setting. So instead of a high zap/vibration during the event I’m forced to repeatedly push the button and increase it and then do it again to the dog. So what might have taken just one zap/buzz now takes multiple pushes and repeating of commands with the dog still misbehaving, which isn’t good for training. I also don’t like that the electric button is the largest and easiest to be hit. It would be nice if the other 3 buttons (beep, collar light up, and vibrate) were separated better and rearranged. How often do you light up the collar that it needs to be front and center? The display screen is also a bit hard to read to tell which function you’re looking at the level for. There is a wrist strap which is useful for having the remote at the ready.

This e collar does nothing when she’s in full on hyper mode. It’s not strong enough with the vibrations and with the electric zap not doing much it’s not doing much. So I have to catch her before she becomes too hyper and jumping around or starts “play” biting before it draws blood. On walks with outside stimulation it does nothing to stop her misbehaving in any way. Maybe for a 20 to 50 pound dog it would be different, but for a 100 pound 7 month puppy it’s not strong enough.

So overall it’s not bad, has some decent features and battery life, but it’s not great. As I said before if it hadn’t cost less than $25 I’d be more upset but for the price that’s about what I expected. It’s basically a beep and vibration collar since the electric part of the e collar doesn’t do much. With me trying to break her of habits her previous owner encouraged, that might be different than training a dog that wasn’t encouraged to misbehave. So it might work better for others. I’m satisfied enough that I’m keeping it, but when it dies I’ll probably go with a different replacement.

If it dies completely within the first 6 months I’ll update this review. Thus far it’s only been a week and as I’ve said the shocks don’t work. So it’s either not waterproof from even rain or it just was never good to begin with.

This training collar exceeded my expectations. With 4 adjustable modes—beep, vibration, and shock—I can train my dog in a controlled and safe way. The remote works up to 2,500 feet, it’s rechargeable, and IP67 waterproof. Highly recommended for responsible owners seeking quick and effective results.

I bought this collar to help train my dog and the truth is that I was surprised by how efficient it is. The remote control has a clear and easy-to-read screen, and the intensity of vibrations or sound can be adjusted as needed. I like that it has several functions (sound, vibration and light), so I can use it without causing discomfort to the dog.
The range is very good and the battery lasts a long time, the leash also looks resistant and comfortable for the dog.
In summary, it is an excellent tool to reinforce training and correct behaviors, always using it responsibly. Very good purchase for the price.

This training collar has really saved me a lot of headaches! My dog ​used to chew furniture and run around, but now he’s much more obedient. It’s practical and easy to use, allowing me to easily adjust his behavior. The collar is lightweight and comfortable, allowing him to move freely. The battery life is incredibly long, so a single charge gives him hours of use. It’s incredibly effective and a must-have for pet owners!

I adopted a dog couple weeks ago, the problem I live in a house with HOA. so we have to be so careful letting my dog outside to play, or go to do his necessities.
It was really hard because he loves to bark to our neighbors, or even birds, I found this training collar and it’s been working awesome! It makes a beep, or do vibration, or even shock is not that strong but will work good to make them stop. Was super easy to set up, and automatically went into a sleep mode so, is still working just not wasting so much battery. It has levels 1-10 so you decided what level set up. Depends on your dog.
