We’ll tell you what we’d actually run when in your shoes.
E-collar shopping is confusing. The options have multiplied, it’s hard to know what you actually need, and most of the advice online was written by a marketer, not someone who uses e-collars in every setting possible for a hunting dog.
This is where we come in. Mike, our owner and resident expert, is here to answer your questions and get you geared up with what’s best for you and your dogs. He’s been training, testing, and hunting with bird dogs for almost 15 years. He’s a NAVHDA Senior Judge. He’s made bad gear decisions and good ones. He knows the difference.
Fill out the form below. Tell him about your dog, how you hunt, and what you’re looking for in an e-collar. He’ll read it and respond personally with what he recommends and why.
I reached out to Ugly Dog Hunting Co. last fall looking for help deciding on an GPS system last fall. Mike listened to me and helped me decide between a Garmin Pro550+ and an Alpha 300i. Knowing I was getting what I wanted for the investment brought me peace of mind.

Fill out the form. Be specific. The more you tell me, the more useful my answer will be.
I’ll respond by email within 48 hours. If a phone call makes more sense, tell me that too.
There’s no obligation to buy anything. If the right answer for your situation is something I don’t carry, I’ll tell you that.
Happy hunting.
~Mike
