I had the dogtra 200
I had the dogtra 200 C for 14 years on my previous dog. He passed away and when I rescued another, I found the batteries not staying charged very long so I purchased the 280 X. My dog wears the collar during the day and we go for long walks without a leash because I have total control with the collar. The durability of these collars is very impressive. The long range and features such as vibration are perfect. Admittedly, I didn’t think I would use the flashing light on the collar but walking my dog at night. I must admit it allows me to immediately spot wherever he’s at. As with any tool, these collars require some training so you and your canine know what to expect. I’ve been using dogtra collars for over 25 years and I’ve trained many dogs. If you’re thinking of purchasing one I would recommend getting some training by someone who uses electronic collars so you will be set up for success and a very happy dog.
