Navigating Our Buyer’s Guide

Choosing the right training collar can be overwhelming. The options sometimes seem confusing and can make you settle for a collar that might not be the absolute best one for you. Most of the time you know a little about what you need but, not necessarily which options can give you the best bang for your buck. If you start with our dog training collars buyer’s guide and work your way through the options you might make a better choice in the end.

Choose A Category

Simply start with the correct category. It is certainly possible that you will choose a collar from a different category but, starting with what you know can help to build your knowledge. Our categories are pretty simple: Family, Waterfowl, Upland, Hound, Tracking, Bark, Small and Fence. Most collars will overlap into more than one category so don’t worry if you feel like you could choose more than one category. Just choose the one that makes the most sense to begin with. For example, if you have a small family pet then you could narrow it down by choosing the “small” category instead of the “family” category. All of the small collars will be in the family category but, all of the family collars won’t be in the “small” category. Choosing “small” narrows it down to the best choices for your small dog.
