Description
The Dogtra Tom Davis Edition 280C Boost & Lock is a collaboration between Dogtra and professional trainer Tom Davis, inspired by his No Bad Dogs approach. It takes the popular 280C format and adds features that make everyday training easier, with a bold look chosen by Tom’s community. This edition features Boost ‘N Bungee: a custom BOOST level, Continuous Nick that pulses for up to 12 seconds to mimic a gentle leash tug, and an adjustable No Bad Dogs bungee collar with a Cord Loc for a secure, comfortable fit. It has a 1/2-mile range and an IPX9K waterproof receiver.

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.
What makes this edition different
