I’m a dog groomer and had a fellow golden retriever owner client shame me for letting my dog become “so skinny”. We compete in competitive dog sports and stay active every day because I see TOO MANY obese Goldens and labs at the salon who can barely climb into the bathtub or onto my grooming table, and do not want my dog to suffer the same way. Show me your fit Goldens!! 💛
Need help deciding on a new e-collar for my dog!
I have a four year old male golden and I currently have an ECT mini educator. The receiver stopped working about a year and a half ago where the stim option would only work at certain levels randomly, and id end up accidentally over correcting him sometimes until I realized that the thing wasn't working properly. Im not a fan of the stopwatch remote either and want to switch to something more ergonomic.
I used to have a Dogtra ARC before I got my mini educator because I liked the design, but sold it without really using it because it fit my Golden really poorly at the time. He had such a skinny neck and so much loose skin till he was about a year and a half, and the arc was just so heavy on him and had poor contact. Im looking to switch back to dogtra potentially, or try the EZ-900, to see if I can get something a little more reliable and less goofy looking, we do a lot of hiking and swimming so I want something that will hold up. I do worry I'm gonna have the same issue if I go with ECT again
Please let me know your thoughts on these models! I know a lot of people love their ET-900 and 280C/X's. I am drawn to the design on the ARC-X and the fact that new model is slimmer/lighter than the older one
