Re: Spray Commander, remote control training system

We must have the scentless version because I have yet to smell it. We tested it before using it and it just seemed like water to me.
Gina, I still think Bark Busters was a wonderful experience. The people who used them after Lola, were very pleased as well and the trainer never had to return. Lola learned excellent manners from them. She is very well behaved in every other area except when she sees another dog. When the bell rings, she barks and will calm down and then sit and wait for direction. When she is around children,she responds to Leave it, immediately, especially if they drop a toy or food. The mailman will stop to pet her and she will sit nicely. The dog aggression on the other hand, is just vile. If she is in the car with me and happens to see another dog, it's worse than ever until I can pull away. With her spray collar on she is much more focused on me. If she sees the remote in my hand, she sits and if I don't or can't get her attention she gets a spray.
She wore a prong collar for several months. One of her trainers showed us the correct way to use it. It never slowed down her dog aggression and we were afraid she was going to really hurt herself. We went to a choker and now have her on a half choke.
