Rechargeable Dog Training Collar, 900ft Remote Range

Three modes, one visible level

Three modes, graduated control

Beep, vibration and static give you three steps to escalate through. The backlit LCD shows the level on the remote, so a change in setting is never a guess. Most dogs learn the beep and vibration cues well before the static mode ever comes into play.

Range that reaches the field

The remote is rated for 900 ft, and the telescopic antenna extends for open-ground sessions. That is enough to work a dog across a large training field without closing the gap. Dense brush and hills cut into the signal, so test the range at short distance before you rely on it.

Built for wet training days

The receiver is rainproof and the matte ABS housing and woven nylon strap suit field use. Wet grass and rain do not stop the session. Dry the contact probes after each wet outing so the next session starts clean.

Beep first, then vibration, then static

1. 1
   Start with beep

   Use the beep mode first on a short leash in a quiet place. Call the dog, and reward the return the moment it comes back.

2. 2
   Move up to vibration

   If the dog ignores the beep, step up to vibration. Watch the LCD so you know which level you are sending, and keep the level low.

3. 3
   Use static as the last step

   Static shock is the final mode in the sequence. Reserve it for a dog that has learned the cue and still ignores the lower steps, and ask a qualified trainer to show you timing first.

4. 4
   Reward the return

   Praise and treat every correct response. The dog learns that the cue means come back, and the stimulation fades from the picture.

The recall that stops at the tree line

The dog that will not come back

You call once, then twice, then you are shouting into the wind. The dog is out past the fence line, nose down, and every second makes the road or the flush a little more likely. A long lead is no help once the dog is 300 yards out.

A remote that reaches the field

The 998DR-1 pairs a remote rated for 900 ft with three modes: beep, vibration and static. The backlit LCD shows the stimulation level you chose, so you always know what the dog just felt. You start at beep and climb only when the cue is ignored.

Recall you can count on

Recall becomes a routine you run in the park, in the field and on wet mornings. The receiver is rainproof, the strap adjusts and the buckle releases quickly. Each session builds on the last, and the dog starts to come back on the first call.

What to expect over the first weeks

1. First use
   Learn the controls

   Set the level and test beep and vibration at close range in a quiet room. Confirm the LCD shows the level you picked before you go outside.

2. Week 1
   Build the beep response

   Use beep alone during short leash sessions in the park. Reward each correct response so the dog links the cue to the reward.

3. Week 4
   Extend the distance

   Practice recall at increasing distances in open ground. Results depend on the dog, the terrain and how consistent you are, so keep the pace the dog can follow.

Care for the contact points

• Clean the probes

  Wipe the metal contact points after every session so contact stays consistent.

• Dry the receiver

  Dry the receiver and strap after wet outings before you store it.

• Check the fit daily

  Look at the skin under the strap and loosen it if the dog shows irritation.
