Description
The Dogtra 282C is the next generation of the much-loved 280C, rebuilt for owners who want clear, fast communication with small and medium dogs. A front-and-center command button keeps your thumb exactly where it needs to be, so you never miss the moment to mark or correct a behavior. The 282C is the two-dog version of the classic 280C, with an ultra-compact receiver for dogs from about 10 lb and 0-127 levels of low-to-medium stimulation set precisely with Dogtra’s patented rheostat dial. It’s rated IPX9K waterproof.

Getting good results
Fit the receiver high on the neck so both contact points touch the skin, with room to slide one finger under the strap. Start at the lowest level your dog notices, usually a small ear flick or head turn, and pair each cue with a command your dog already knows. Keep the first sessions short, reward a lot, and move the collar every few hours. For general training help that isn’t tied to any brand, the American Kennel Club training library is free.
Which two-dog collar?
The Dogtra 282C is the classic two-dog 280C with an ultra-compact receiver for dogs from about 10 lb and 0-127 levels set on Dogtra’s rheostat dial. If you prefer tone, vibration and an LED light, the newer 280X 2-Dog is worth comparing. For one dog, the 280C remote and collar are sold as parts too.
Charging and parts
The 282C remote is sold as the 282C transmitter. The collars run on the BP37P3303P battery and charge with the BC5VAUTO.
