Sparky Pet CoECollar Replacement Strap -Black Surefit- Waterproof - Adjustable - Secure Nexus Wheel Lock - for Electronic Training & Invisible Fence Systems - 3/4" (Black)

The media could not be loaded. Excellent, works great with dogtra 282c. This is the same material as the dogtra collar. Fits on my 76lbs and 94lbs German shepherds. Barely on my bigger guy so if your dog is bigger than 94lbs it will be snugUpdate 1 year later: these are amazing! I now have them for all 4 dogs (I got black camo and orange camo for the boys and solid black and orange for the girls since my dogtra remote buttons are black and orange. The lighter colored dogs have orange, darker color dogs have black, this way even my kids can’t mess it up. We’ve gone to the UP twice and spent all day in Lake Superior and then in Lake Michigan, we’ve been in muddy creeks in the spring and fall and lots of lakes in the summer. Right now we have about a foot of snow. These are still in perfect condition, just like the day I bought them! Milo, my largest (long hair) German shepherd is now 110lbs and it fits perfectly, it could easily fit a bigger dog. These make my like so easy! With 4 dogs to get ready the buckles take to long. I can have all 4 ready for adventure in seconds! I highly remembered the dogtra collars and watching America’s canine educator Tom Davis for training tips. My rescue mutt hates just about everyone and everything, my golden is dumber than a box of rocks and the shepherds are obviously well trained and easy to work with. Because we have good equipment and spent the time to train them, we have to issues being off leash anywhere. These also hold up great to tough wrestling sessions. My German shepherds got these last year, they are 2 and 3 now and my golden is 4 (she wrestles tougher than and with the boys) and these have NEVER come off and are in perfect shape. If you’re on the fence, buy one and see, you’ll love it!

Easy and effective if used correctly!

I love this collar. I had the traditional plastic collars that came with the Dogtra e-collar set. I never liked them and always found it a struggle to get the collar in just the right spot and just the right amount of tightness.Moving the dogtra unit to this collar was very easy. Once I had it put together, I slipped the collar over my dogs neck, positioned the prongs, and tightened the collar to the perfect tightness. My dog seemed very happy in it. I also like that if you are in a place that you don’t need to actually use the e-collar, it’s easy to loosen to give the skin relief from the prongs.We have quite a bit of land and my dogs like to go out and enjoy the morning just the two of them. We trained them to come back to the house by pushing the vibration button 3 times. They always arrive back at home quickly and happy. Sometime if it hasn’t gotten too hot, I’ll send them off for more outside time with the worlds “go play” and one push of the vibration button.With the regular collars that came with the dogtra set, the communication with the collar wasn’t as precise as it is with this new collar. That makes me feel better knowing my dogs are getting clear communication and they respond clearly, promptly and happily.

We have 3 of these collars, all bought at different times within the last year and a half. The first one was the blue camo, it came with a sturdy bungee, fit the mini educator on it no problems. Got a second dog, ordered the grey camo. This one came with a flimsier bungee, but still fit the mini educator and worked appropriately. Easy to put on, easy to take off, easy to get the proper fitment of the e collar. Got another dog, ordered a yellow camo. This one also came with the flimsier bungee. I had been needing replacement bungee cord for the grey camo one, as the ends had been nibbled away and made shorter making the collar difficult to get on my Mals giant head, so I went to hobby lobby and picked up the bungee cord there to replace the flimsy cords. It was a pain in the neck to re-cord them, but got it done and they work. It’s a bit tough to move, as I think the clasp might be smaller in the flimsier corded collars, but the cord did fit and remains in place. I wish they hadn’t changed the diameter of the bungee cord. Overall a good collar, but better with sturdier bungees.

Ok

This review is specifically in reference to a hazard posed by this product, not the quality of the product itself. While this does make it incredibly easy to place your dogs e collar on and off it does pose a serious risk. My 11 mo. Old Malinois could have died because of this collar. He was playing in the yard, running up and down the fence line with our neighbors dogs. Somehow, one of the shock cord ends got hung up and managed to pull itself as tight as it could go. The locking mechanism worked perfectly and locked in place but due to this tension, I was unable to disengage it. I’m not a dainty man and I was incapable of disengaging the lock due to the tension. The collar became tight enough to completely close of my dogs airway, he was dying. It was so tight that I couldn’t fit the blade of my pocket knife between the collar and my dogs fur. My wife had to run in and get a pair of scissors. If you chose to use this collar, PLEASE don’t let your dog out of your sight, watch for this risk and be prepared to cut the collar off if necessary. Trust me, folks, I’m not trying to be a drama queen here, but we were literally three to five minutes away from finding our dog expired in our backyard.

This is sooooo much better than the buckle style that came with my dog's e-collar. It's an easy slip over his head and pull the two strings to tighten it, and it stays tightened, no slippage. This is the second one I have had and the first lasted more than five years, meaning one of the strings wore out. My dog wears his collar every day (not all day), so it gets a lot of use. I am very happy with this bungee style. The different color choices are nice too.

This has made it so much easier to take the collar on and off my Gsd would recommend

Easy to use

The collar that came with the ecollar was like a belt loop super annoying to get a good fit. This collar is easy on/off and good fit every time, easy peasy. Definitely recommend for ecollar users!

A lot faster to put on,easier to adjust for perfect fit
