Have a dog that isn’t out of control, but needs just a little bit more training? Dogtra 280c is perfect dog training device for you. Dogtra 280c is specialized for dogs with mild or normal temperaments. With a ½ mile line of sight range, you can actively train your dog even when it’s not so close to you.

Features

The smaller receiver is great for dogs weighing over 7 lbs.—it has water excelling enhanced contact points, so your dog will receive the same stimulation regardless if they’re either in or out of the water.

Product Comparisons

The Dogtra 280c got better ratings on Amazon than DT Systems Dog Training Collar and Remote, which got an average rating of 3.2 stars.  DT Systems’ device also has a ½ mile range as well and similar capabilities of the Dogtra 280c. However, 40% of the Amazon reviews for this product were one star. The one star reviewers complained that collar is too large and heavy for smaller breeds. However, Dogtra 280c is rated lower than the Sportdog Sporthunter 825 on Amazon—it has an average of 4.3 stars and is about 15 dollars cheaper.
