For fitting the ecollar with contact points, my dog has long hair and I need the collar to make good contact. Do you use the 3/4

Hi Cindy,

After purchasing and watching your DVD on remote collars I have just now begun training and I am loving the results. They have been life changing not just for me, but my dog as well. I bring her to work with me everyday and her recall on the job site was awful. I took her to an obedience trainer and her recall never improved once the leash came off. I just want to thank you because it was your website that persuaded me to use a remote collar.

My question is with fitting the collar and the contact points. I have the Dogtra 280NCP and it needs to be fairly tight on her neck to make good contact with her skin. She is a chow/mix. I'd like to leave the collar on for most of the day so leaving it that tight for long periods of time concerns me. Do you use the 3/4" contact points for your long haired dogs or is it better to keep them as small as possible?

Thanks again, I love the site!
