As a general rule I prefer that the dog be at least 6 months old. Keep in mind that a containment fence will not keep other dogs out of
your yard so he needs to be big enough to protect himself.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  We do appreciate your business.

Thanks,

Only if you want it to. Every mode setting that has tone (1,2,3, 5 & 7) have a separate tone button that has no stimualtion.

The only one that combines tone with stimulation is mode 7 where you have a stimulation only button, a tone only button, and a tone with a
one second stimulation delay button.

??? Here are the mode settings for the SD 400

MODE-1: 8 levels continuous + 8 levels momentary + separate tone button

MODE-2: 8 levels continuous + a level 8 instant “hot” button for dangerous situations + separate tone button

MODE-3: 8 levels continuous + a “plus 2″ button that allows you to increase the stimulation level by 2 levels without changing the dial +
separate tone button

MODE-5: 16 levels of continous stimulation + a tone only button.

MODE-6: 16 levels of momentary stimulation + 8 levels momentary

MODE-7: 8 levels continuous + 8levels tone with one second delayed continuous stimulation + separate tone button

Mode 4 is the multi dog setting.

ANSWER: The C has 12 levels of continuous stimulation and 6 levels of momentary.The M has 6 levels of continuous stimulation and 12 levels of momentary. I prefer the C over the M. This is a much better collar than the Companion.  It has a 1/2 mile range compared to the 200 yards you had on the Companion and it does have a tone on the dial feature. Please let me know if you have any questions.  We do appreciate your business.Thanks,Steve Snell

QUESTION: I recently purchased a wireless fence unit from you, Petsafe PIF 300. I am very satisfied with the product, however I was wondering if it was possible to purchase a remote for the same collar she has on? I would like to be able to train her from jumping, and all the other dog stuff that needs correcting without having to put two shock collars on her at the same time. So is it possible to get a remote for the same collar?

Howdy. Unfortunately, the PIF 300 does not have any remote capabilty.

Here are a few training collars for you to look at
