Dogtra1900X E-Collar for Dog Training - 3/4 Mile Range, for Dogs 35 lbs+, IPX9K Waterproof, 100 Stimulation Levels, Vibration, Tone, Rechargeable - Ideal for Dog Owners and Professional Trainers

These things made training our German Shepherds much easier! I would warn you, like the instructions say, start low. I couldn’t imagine having these on the highest level. Our dogs learned on one of the lower level and when it went off, they reacted instantly. We’ve had the collars for almost a year now and they still look brand new. These collars are very powerful, and for the price, they should be. We love them. They’ve seen all kinds of weather and have been very sturdy.

I've been using the Dogtra 1900x for a couple of months. It’s a significant upgrade from my previous Dogtra model. The button placement is much easier to use and program. And I can carry fewer transmitters with the ability to add a 3rd dog. Compared to a previous PetSafe product, it has really allowed me to fine-tune my dog’s training with much lower stimulation levels, which wasn’t possible with PetSafe, where I was always at 100% power, so it might tingle him.Pros:Robust—This collar can handle stubborn dogs, making it reliable when my dog is full of drive or if an emergency might occur.Battery life—The battery lasts longer on both the remote and collar, so there are fewer recharging requirements. USB-C charging is a huge plus.Minor Cons:LED light—The LED only flashes instead of staying on constantly. This will help with battery life, but it would be more helpful for visibility during night use.Contact points—I highly recommend using the titanium points. They solved an issue I had with spots on my dog's neck. They’re a must if you’re concerned about skin sensitivity.

Collar is great for training when used correctly. Vibration is extreme so only use that for corrective training. But fit is great and holds up to a German Shepheard.

I've been using the Dogtra 1900x for a couple weeks now and, overall, I'm impressed. It’s a significant upgrade from my previous PetSafe model and has really allowed me to fine-tune my dog’s training with much lower stimulation levels, which wasn’t possible with PetSafe, where I was always at 100% power so it might tingle him.Pros:Excellent remote – very user-friendly and functional.Powerful – this collar can handle even the most stubborn dogs, which makes it reliable for when my dog is full of adrenaline or drive.Great battery life – battery lasts long on both the remote and collar, so I’m not constantly recharging it. USB-C charging is a huge plus.Minor Cons:LED light – the LED only flashes instead of staying on constantly, which would be more helpful for visibility during night sessions in the park or field.Contact points – the standard contact points caused some pink spots on my dog’s neck, but switching to titanium points solved the issue. It’s a must if you’re concerned about skin sensitivity.Weight: Both the remote and collar are a bit heavy, but it does give it a more premium feel.In summary, the Dogtra 1900x has been reliable so far and is a far better choice than my PetSafe e-collar.

Receiver is a bit large, but battery life is good. Stim is consistent. Dogs went in the lake immediately and no issues so definitely waterproof. Dogs seem to enjoy the training.

Great collar so far! Love that you can add other dogs to it and lots of options!

I love this collar so much, I bought a second one for our adolescent cane corso. It has worked beautifully for our two very high drive dogs. They learned very quickly to answer to the page, but on occasion we have to use the correction. I really did not care for the way the buttons were organized on the multi-dog units. I preferred this unit immensely and just carry two handheld controls. I cannot say enough good things about this training collar. My dogs are 65 and 85 pounds and they are not too bulky - nice size.

This review is for my 2nd 1900X bought here on Amazon. I returned the first one for a replacement because it double-tapped on the "nick" setting. On "nick," when you push the stim button you should feel only a single, quick stim; but BOTH 1900X collars gave TWO quick stims at least once every 20 nicks, and the 2nd collar randomly BOOSTED the correction at least 10 levels higher than it was set for! Ouch. (I was nowhere near the Boost button, but this explained why my pup was occasionally jumping on single-digit corrections.)I love the thunky stim the collar provides, and its vibration feature is startlingly strong, so I regret giving only one star, but here is why I made the decision to do so: In order to protect other dogs from having the same confusing experience as my dog did, rather than simply returning the 2nd collar to Amazon, I sent it directly to Dogtra for warranty repair. When I called to tell them I'd received TWO collars with the same problem and asked if they'd gotten many complaints about the issue, they said "none whatsoever," and insisted they would've heard about it by now. After they received the collar I was told the high voltage circuit had to be replaced, so they did find something wrong. But I got it back last night and IT STILL DOUBLE-TAPS. So this unit is going back to Amazon, just like the 1st one, with writing on the box that says it is defective so that it will be returned to Dogtra and not resold as-is.Honestly, I expected more from Dogtra. I still use two collars of theirs that are over 10 years old. I was just interested in the new features on this one.If you do buy a 1900X, test the collar on yourself at a level you can feel, using the "nick" setting (not the "continuous" setting). Press the stim button every second or two (count "one-Mississippi" each nick) at least 20 times in a row. Both of my collars malfunctioned within the first 20 nicks and within each 20 nicks thereafter. I tested the collars on my forearm and on the side of my neck, (which Dogtra strongly objects to), at levels 15 and 20. BOTH collars had the double-tap problem. The "boost" effect was more random and I only felt it once while testing the 2nd collar. Wondering if I might be mishandling the button, I had someone totally unfamiliar with e-collars test the 2nd one on his forearm, controlling the unit himself."Oh yeah," he said, within about 10 nicks. So this is not just me.Again, I regret writing such a strong negative review about a product made by a company I respect, but Dogtra needs to accept that there may be a problem with more than a couple of these collars. I cannot believe the unit they returned to me as "repaired" was tested on a human being. It should have been because I wrote this down and my description was still attached to the transmitter when I got it back. Electric collars are tricky enough to introduce to dogs. Collars that don't give the corrections they advertise shouldn't be sold. Period. Please fix this.
