Now that my lab is nearing time for formal obedience, I've been looking at e collars. Does anyone have any recommendations/experience on which ones would be good? I've narrowed it down to Tri-tronics or dogtra. The leading candidate is the TT Pro 70

Tri-tronics. Quality. Durability. Reliability. Been using them for over 25 years.

I lost the controller once, and only thanks to the effort and sharp eyes of some friends was I able to recover it.

If your running retrievers for waterfowl I'd agree the holster can be an issue. It was when I used to run labs. But since I switched my concentration, at least the dog part, to upland, there are several companies that make great holsters that I can attach to my vest. I run the old(?) G2 upland model (I think that's what it's called). The e-collar part has always been great, especially if your running more than 1 dog at a time, but their beepers have much to be desired. Love it when it works right and wouldn't go into the grouse woods without it and a bell. However, they have issues. Frankly I'm not sure if anyone makes a great beeper. They all have flaws.

This'll be 90% waterfowl and 10% dove hunting if that would make a difference between the 2 controller styles
Seemed the thread was focused on upland hunting, which you didn't plan to do.saltydog09 said:
Any explanation for quoting it?
Would you like for him to call you something else? How about snot or *****?WildcatAg said:AhemSean98 said:
