David E. Miller –
Effective and inexpensive alternative to a conventional pinch collar for most dogs.
I have used this collar on at least 20 dogs. Many of these dogs had no obedience, bad manners, and behavior issues that required training. The most common problem among the many has been pulling on the leash. This collar will do just what the dog needs in order to begin to end leash pulling and that is to be uncomfortable when it is pulling on the leash. Harnesses, harness leashes, “gentle leaders” and the like are merely gimmicks being marketed to those with good intentions, but lacking in knowledge about leash pulling and other unwanted behavior as well as dog obedience training. This collar is inexpensive, made well from high-quality materials and easy to use if the recommended sizing and fitting instructions are followed. This collar should always be used with the included nylon backup slip collar or some other type of collar. I use a snap-around collar for a backup.ALWAYS USE A BACKUP COLLAR! Pawmark sells a leash extension on Amazon with two snap hooks that works well to attach the leash to a primary and backup collar. This collar is effective as a general training collar for most dogs. I highly recommend trying this collar before spending a lot more money on a conventional metal pinch collar. The size of the collar is adjusted by adding or removing links. This can be a little tricky at first. However, there are videos that demonstrate how to do this properly. After a couple of tries, it is not hard at all. If you are unfamilar with pinch collars or have been exposed to the negative propaganda about them from the Dark Side, you should know that these collars are not painful nor do they injure the dog in any way if used properly. But, NEVER LEAVE THIS COLLAR OR A PRONG COLLAR ON A DOG FOR DAYS!! This is really a bad idea. I have read some of the less than positive reviews concerning this collar. Some of them are irrelevant as they refer to a different collar – with pictures included. Others are in the category of those unique situations such as dogs with very long coat hair, and dominant or aggressive dogs. This collar is probably not going to be as effective as a prong collar for specific special cases. The collar is a great first collar to use for most dogs. However, like other collars and tools might not be effective for some dogs compared to a prong collar. I use a prong collar for foundational obedience work and then switch to this collar when moving the dog to an electronic training collar. The small collar size is suitable from my experience for dogs up to 50 pounds or for dogs with small necks. If it is the case that you have to use less than six links for a dog with the large size collar, I recommend using a small size and adding links. You do have to take some time to read and follow the instructions and watch the videos on how to size and use the collar – especially adding or removing links.

Worth it! Works great and not harmful.
This collar works really great! I typically use a metal choke collar for my dogs, however this training collar works so much better and less harmful for the dog. Plus my dogs tend to have an allergic reaction to all metal collars or even leather collars with a metal nameplate on it, something about the metal that causes them to get a rash on their neck. But weâve had this training collar on for months now and no rashes and my dog loves to go on her walks now!

Good product
I was trained in how to use a regular pinch collar with my last dog. The trainer called the collar a “hearing aid”, as in the dog listened to me when I used it! Which came in handy when I tried to walk him when I had a broken shoulder. But I just didn’t like the sharp metal prongs. My current dog also needs a “hearing aid” despite all training, and I was happy to find this alternative. It still works, which makes me happy.I only gave 4 stars because it doesn’t work QUITE as well as the normal metal ones, but that also could be that my girl is more stubborn than my last dog, too. It is easy to connect, comes with a secondary collar in case it comes unhooked or loose from leash, and overall works pretty good. My dog does not fight using it, and she would if she didn’t like it.

I’m SO glad I bought this collar.
I used this collar for the first time today. A few things about the collar itself: First, WATCH THE TWO MINUTE VIDEO. It shows how to add and remove links. It took a couple of minutes to get the hang of it. It was easier to unclasp than to clasp on when I put it on my dogs. The prongs are not sharp at all. Once you get the link undo, you can see how they connect. But seriously, watch the video.Now, about my dogs. I LOVE my dogs and would never think to buy a product that I thought would hurt them. I was skeptical about buying a collar that you pinch or inflict pain on them. I read a lot about this collar and was convinced that it would be good to train them with it. I have two border collies. My boy is two years old. He is a great dog. My yard is not fenced. When we are at home, I don’t put a leash on him to go outside in the yard. (I never let him out alone). He comes when I call, he doesn’t run off, etc. I had been using a harness to take him for a walk. He would suddenly turn into some sort of sled dog. He never stopped pulling. He pulled so hard that he would end up walking sideways. He also felt the need to ‘herd’ cars. Whenever a car came around, he would drop to the ground until the car passed and then try to lunge at it. SO, after I started out on the walk with the StarMark Training Collar, my pup started to do the same behaviors. By the time we got to the end of our walk, he improved soooo much. I learned to give him a slight tug as soon as I could see that he was eyeing the car. After he let the car go past without a reaction, I would call him back and give him a treat. He still wanted to tug me but it was only a little tension. He would stop when I stopped and as soon as the leash was loose I would give him a treat. My other border collie is a four-year old girl. When we go outside in the yard, I can not trust her to be off-leash. If you even mention the word squirrel, she goes wild. Her triggers are bikes, rollerblades, and other animals. Even though my boy pulls like a mule with a harness, I think she is more of a struggle when we walk. I was very concerned about putting this collar on her because she doesn’t have as much meat on her neck as my boy. I bought the large collar and had to remove 4 links. For her, I am ALWAYS aware of oncoming bikers and skaters. For her, I would put her in a sit-stay until the bike would pass. She would still lunge. Today on our walk, I started the same way. She did lunge the first time. I was a little frightened but she was fine. When the next bike passed, I prepped her by giving a gentle tug and telling her to ‘leave it’. She went at it a little, but a lot less than the first one. We passed several bikes and skaters on our walk. (I live by a lake that is well travelled). By then end, she totally ignored all bikes and only pulled slightly at the sight of other dogs. I am so pleased. I actually enjoyed walking with my dogs for the first time ever. I am sad that the weather is not going to be nice tomorrow because I am now looking forward to walking my dogs.Would I recommend this product? Absolutely YES. I just ordered a collar for my daughter’s corgi. When I read the reviews about other owners and their struggles, I have to believe it is because they are not reading their dogs behavior before the lunging event happens. I am pleased how well it went for the first time using the product. I can not attest to the longevity or durability of the links but they do include a safety collar, which I used. If you are worried that your dog will break through the linked collar AND the safety collar, then you have bigger problems that need to be address with a trainer. The collar alone won’t ‘fix’ your dog’s behaviors. It is a great tool though.

Produces the desired reaction in recognition that I don’t want pulling/tugging
Works, directions are good, this produced a reaction that I wanted from a 55 lb dog, and appears to be a bit gentler than metal prongs. For training, not to be left on the dog.

The collar stops my dog from pulling.

Es muy buena opción para trabajar en el adiestramiento o en la obediencia básica de los perros; personalmente me funcionó muy bien.Está bien que es modular y conforme crece el cachorro puedes ir haciéndolo más grande.No es tan económico, pero funciona bien y creo que lo justifica.

Claro que esse tipo de coleira é necessária uma certa experiência ou ao menos a indicação e auxÃlio de um adestrador para saber o correta e, dessa forma sim é bem eficaz.à mais barata que a tradicional Herm Sprenger e tão eficaz quanto!Está ajudando bastante no processo de adestramento da cachorrinha que tirei da rua recentemente, devido ela ter propensão à agressividade na guia.
