I have used this collar for the past year and love it. Super great quality. This is a very effective training tool. I typically only use the noise, but occasionally the electric stimulation feature when working with my dog off leash. I have worked with her over a large field and worked well.

We’ve been using a sport dog system with our coonhound for 11 years and have had our first issue with a collar (only six months old) not charging. They verified our purchase, the issue and t troubleshooting and are sending out the replacement parts needed!!!

I chose this e-collar because it has dedicated buttons for tone, buzz and stimulation. The transmitter has an excellent feel in my hand, great ergonomics. The display is large and bright even in direct sunlight. The 575 model is actually a 500 meter range not 500 yards which gives you more range than the Amazon sales write up states. I have a smooth collie with dense fur around his neck area so the longer prongs are a welcome addition. I originally tried the mini Educator brand and found their long prongs less effective due to being shorter than the SportDog brand. I really like the option of using tone/buzz or stim without having to adjust a setting on the go with this model. Even though my collie is 60 pounds with a dense neck coat he works well with the number two setting. The transmitter is also able to add an additional collar in the future. Build quality is very good and all buttons and switches feel sturdy and well put together.The only issue I had was with Amazon. I purchased my unit from Amazon Resale which used to be Amazon Warehouse deals. Amazon Resale are units that were previously purchased and returned then discount priced. The first unit shipped stated “Like New” but arrived without the transmitter. The second unit sent was also described as like new but arrived without a charger. Finally on the third attempt I received a perfectly satisfactory unit but without the factory box. Ironically the third unit without the box was the lowest priced unit and I saved a significant amount. These units are sold as new with full factory warranty not as refurbished units. I highly recommend SportDog but be careful buying from Amazon Resale, make sure all the items are supplied upon arrival.

Bonjour,Propriétaire de cet outil de dressage pour chien.Très beau, très jolie et construit solide. Ça a bien fonctionné pendant les 3 premiers mois.Problème rencontré au début. Distance de couverture entre la télécommande et le collier ne va pas plus loin que 100 mètres si utilisée en montagne ou en forêt. Après 3 mois, la batterie ne garde pas sa charge plus de quelques heures au froid. Après seulement 1 hiver, se collier et sa télécommande remplisse le tiroir à débarras. Peut-être excellent utilisé dans un centre d entraînement dans des conditions idéales, dans mon cas. Complètement inutilisable. Beaucoup trop cher pour un utilisateur en forêt au Canada.

This is my second sport, dog collar and remote. The first one (Sport Hunter 425) was excellent. It had lots of great training information included and lasted 6 years. This one did not come with a manual and the remote and collar materials seem to be a lower quality than my original Sport Dog Collar/Remote. We’ll see how long this one lasts.

There are many things I like about this collar. I have a lot more peace of mind allowing my dog off leash, knowing I have a way to communicate with her from farther away. I also appreciate that it has all three modes: tone, vibrate, static. The remote is super easy to use and holds a charge for a long time. The collar itself stays charged for over a week, with daily use, and charges to 100% in two hours or less. Customer service is also outstanding.Things that could be better:1. A better collar strap. The strap is plastic/rubber, and a little over half an inch wide. When worn in the proper position, it looks to put pressure under the dog’s jaw line when at rest.2. Better instructions. The instruction booklet comes with only basic instructions, but does not include how to make adjustments to the static setting (it has low and medium range), or include training instructions. Training is the most important part of owning a collar like this, so it seems odd that you have to search for it on their website. And I had to reach out to customer service to get instructions for how to turn down the static function as even on 1, my dog would jump and yell LOUDLY.Instructions to adjust static range:1. Make sure the Collar Receiver is off.2. Then turn the unit on by pressing and releasing the On/Off Button.3. After the Indicator Light turns off and within 5 seconds, press and hold the On/Off Button for 3 seconds.4. The Collar Receiver will then beep twice and the Indicator Light will flash orange. This indicates medium stimulation range. If low is desired, continue to hold the On/Off Button until the number of beeps/orange flashes equal 1.5. Release the On/Off Button once the desired range is selected; the Collar Receiver will turn off.Again, the single most important part of owning an e-collar is proper training with your dog. This takes a good amount of time and patience, so if you think this will be a quick and easy fix, you will be sadly mistaken and will likely traumatize your dog. Your dog needs to be solid with voice commands before starting or train with this collar. You want the collar to be nothing more than an extended leash.

I will use this collar for hunting, but I bought it primarily for training safety situations with a Lab puppy, like stay away from the road, stay off thin ice, etc. My son loaned me his Garmin training collar and I used it for about half a year before purchasing the SportDog. Functionally the two collars are pretty equivalent, but the SportDog has more customizable features and better range. I paid a little extra to buy the SD-875E; this model allows you to configure the three control buttons in eight different configurations for tone, vibrate, and shock. After you shock your dog once or twice, even at low intensity, using tone or vibrate will get the desired behavior. I reserve shocking only for dangerous situations where he isn't recalling and I need him to stop NOW! The SportDog control unit (transmitter) is intuitive to use and easy to configure. The only odd thing is there is no power-off control for the transmitter. I called SportDog Support, thinking I was not understanding how to turn it off. They told me there is no Off setting...the transmitter basically is always in a standby mode. I thought this would cause it to discharge quickly when not in use, but it does not discharge. I used the collar for multiple hours over multiple days over about a three week period before it needed a charge. At that point, the transmitter was still showing a full charge. Overall, this is an excellent product for the price.

Seems to be a great tool for finishing, be sure to fully understand how to use it. It's not there to teach new skills or commands, that needs to be done the traditional way first. Company provides a training over view and obviously plenty of content online.I must note that despite seeing international plug adaptors included in online (not through Amazon admittedly) it should be noted they aren't included.

Very user friendly. Easy to program. Rugged design, remote and collar alike.Only thing I see that could be improved with this unit is the stim ranges. There is a “low stim range” and “medium stim range” each range having 1-10 levels to select from. Our 40lbs Border/Aussie responds well to level 2 of the “low stim range”, however, level 3 in the same range makes him vocalize when stimulated(too strong). Maybe he’s a wimp, however I wish the stim levels were a little finer controlled.The screen on this unit is sure worth the extra money. Being able to quickly glance down at levels and dog selection is awesome.Overall great product, will highly recommend it to anyone looking for an ecollar.
