You mentioned the "recall" within the app but didn't go into detail. Can you tell me a little more about what that is/how it works? Thanks for info, it's been helpful!
@@Wake-up1776 I will put a link here that will help you with making sure the property works. They just upgraded the gps system that shrinks the "gps drift" to 2-3' which meets military specs for gps devices. The collar might work for your yard even though it is on the smaller side. Plus, SpotOn gives you 90 days to try it out in your situation. If you get it and it doesn't work, you can send it back for a full refund. spotonvirtualfence.sjv.io/m5Yd7O
I was worried about that too. But the great thing about establishing the boundaries with you present, is that you are there to control any surprise distractions. My experience has been that once the boundary was well established, my dog has never "broken" through the correction to get to the sheep or the horses on either side of our property.
There is a 10 foot warning window from the edge of the boundary. When you take into account the fact that sometimes there is a little bit of GPS drift (about 5 ft in any direction), then you can have issues with your dog not having any where to run.
I'm torn about buying this. I hear great things about the collar (60 days, 90 days into use) but the ppl who have experienced issues and had to warranty their collars, it sounds like Spot On is a nightmare to deal with and are difficult to get ahold of. For $1300/collar (I would need 2), I'd expect better customer service.Are you still loving your collar? Have you had to deal with Spot on with any issues?
Loving my collar. Also, the price has reduced. Check out this link. I think the price is about $899. It’s a great time. I did have to reach out to customer service once for the app. My experience was really quick and good.
@@DogFocusTraining Thank you for the reply! I'm in Canada so $899 USD is about $1200 CDN, and that doesn't include duties or our provincial tax that I have to pay on arrival, It'll actually probably be more than $1300 Canadian once all is said and done. I don't mind spending that if the product is good and the customer service is good.

Can the app be in 2 different phones to control. Ie both my husband and me
Hi. I have never seen this collar used on a smaller dog (20lbs) The unit looks bulky. Any comments ?
I have a smaller yard, will it work for a yard thats about 67 feet?
Is it 67 feet wide? Is it a square?
@@DogFocusTraining ita square, that's the length, width is roughly thr same
That might work, depending on the layout. Is you home in the middle of that or to one side or is that all yard?
@@DogFocusTraining mostly in the middle slightly to the left but not much

My concern is that my dog would be willing to push past the buzzing to chase off the “threat” that she perceives.

Why isn’t it good for smaller yards?

@@DogFocusTraining thank you that makes sense!
