Complaint
“The app takes a long time to send the trigger to the collar, which is counter productive when training your dog.”
Quotes are word for word from the linked pages, and we pick praise and complaints alike. Reviews on the brand's own site and reviews written for a free product are not counted. Store ratings change over time; the date shows when we checked.
