If you are the owner of a working dog you need a training collar that works as hard as your dog works.  The Tri-Tronics Sport Series the most durable training collars on today’s market, being one hundred percent waterproof and designed to take the abuse given them by an active working dog.  Hunting dogs dive through underbrush, jump into mud, swim streams, dive into lakes, and more as they work to grab the game.  You need a training collar that can withstand this abuse.

Once you’ve made the decision to use a dog training collar you’re making an investment into training equipment that you’ll want to make sure works for you.  Tri-Tronics stands behind the durability of their products and this is one of the reasons they are an industry leader.

Tri-Tronics understands that you want a convenient and lightweight system and they’ve taken advantage of state of the art technology to provide compact and durable receivers and transmitters that are of the highest quality.  One of the advantages of their systems is that they are designed to work well whether it’s in warm weather and bare hands or in the coldest weather with gloved hands. 

In addition to their compact size and their durability, you can even use the Tri-Tronic sports series to train up to three dogs at one time.  Multiple dogs can easily be confused if you’re using systems that are not set up to deal with them properly. Tri-Tronics sports series are specially designed with numerous (20) levels of stimulation in both continuous and intermittent settings.   One of the most significant advantages to this number of settings is that some behaviors may be easily corrected with one level of stimulation but others may require more or less correction.  Tri-Tronics has taken all of this into consideration in developing their sports series.

Tri-Tronics has also taken into consideration that your working dog isn’t always going to be close by and allows you to control up to three dogs that are as much as one half mile away from you making it easy to keep track of what’s happening with each of them.

If you’re interested in not only electronic stimulation but also sound correction, you will still find what you need with the Tri-Tronics sports series since they also have a beeper option.  Remember that when you are attempting training, not only is electronic and sound correction helpful, but praise is also another helpful (and often more effective) method of training – using all of the tools available to you when training your dog makes training much easier and much more lasting. The Tri-tronics system provides a full range of tools to help you train a happy, healthy, and obedient working dog.

Some other popular dog training collars include: the Dogtra 200 NCP GOLD and the ADV 1002.
