DogWatch Training Products

DogWatch® Training Products

This holiday season, help bring out the best in your dog with our DogWatch Training Products.

  • Remote Trainers, also called e-collars (electronic collars), allow you to communicate with your dog, reinforce training commands and change unwanted behavior. The BigLeash® S-15 Remote Trainer has 15 training levels, including stimulation and vibration, while the The BigLeash® V-10 Vibration Trainer uses only vibration.
  • The SideWalker® Leash Trainer’s easy-to-use, “self-teaching” design gently corrects overly enthusiastic leash pulling and helps your dog learn appropriate on-leash behavior.
  • The BarkCollar™ is designed to change a dog’s barking behavior smartly, gently and effectively. When dog barking moves from occasional to excessive, the BarkCollar delivers a vibration or a stimulation at a level that is just enough to distract the dog and break the barking cycle.

*Disclaimer: On Point Pupcakes provided DogWatch with a free product sample for us to evaluate and consider for our Holiday Gift Guide. We enjoyed baking it and our office dogs LOVED the finished product so much that we chose to include them in this year’s Guide.
