Title: E-Collar Selection
Post by: skagit on November 07, 2010, 11:55:19 AM: I am considering buying a e-collar to work with my bird dog on range. I am wondering what units people recommend? I am considering the Sport Dog 800. Any thoughts?

Post by: Happy Gilmore on November 10, 2010, 12:32:10 PM: For hunting use, the dogtras are nice because of their size. For long term use if you train dogs almost every day I'd vote for Tri-Tronics.
