Review: Works great! - Very pleased with how well this worked! Our dog is a leash puller on walks and we were struggling with training him to stop. When our dog wears the collar, he does not pull nearly as much and even if he gets excited and pulls a little, it’a very easy to rein him in. The prongs are pointed but not super sharp. I placed the collar on my own neck to make sure he wouldn’t be in pain, and then it was just uncomfortable. Great for training, but not painful for our pup. Review: I'm SO glad I bought this collar. - I used this collar for the first time today. A few things about the collar itself: First, WATCH THE TWO MINUTE VIDEO. It shows how to add and remove links. It took a couple of minutes to get the hang of it. It was easier to unclasp than to clasp on when I put it on my dogs. The prongs are not sharp at all. Once you get the link undo, you can see how they connect. But seriously, watch the video. Now, about my dogs. I LOVE my dogs and would never think to buy a product that I thought would hurt them. I was skeptical about buying a collar that you pinch or inflict pain on them. I read a lot about this collar and was convinced that it would be good to train them with it. I have two border collies. My boy is two years old. He is a great dog. My yard is not fenced. When we are at home, I don't put a leash on him to go outside in the yard. (I never let him out alone). He comes when I call, he doesn't run off, etc. I had been using a harness to take him for a walk. He would suddenly turn into some sort of sled dog. He never stopped pulling. He pulled so hard that he would end up walking sideways. He also felt the need to 'herd' cars. Whenever a car came around, he would drop to the ground until the car passed and then try to lunge at it. SO, after I started out on the walk with the StarMark Training Collar, my pup started to do the same behaviors. By the time we got to the end of our walk, he improved soooo much. I learned to give him a slight tug as soon as I could see that he was eyeing the car. After he let the car go past without a reaction, I would call him back and give him a treat. He still wanted to tug me but it was only a little tension. He would stop when I stopped and as soon as the leash was loose I would give him a treat. My other border collie is a four-year old girl. When we go outside in the yard, I can not trust her to be off-leash. If you even mention the word squirrel, she goes wild. Her triggers are bikes, rollerblades, and other animals. Even though my boy pulls like a mule with a harness, I think she is more of a struggle when we walk. I was very concerned about putting this collar on her because she doesn't have as much meat on her neck as my boy. I bought the large collar and had to remove 4 links. For her, I am ALWAYS aware of oncoming bikers and skaters. For her, I would put her in a sit-stay until the bike would pass. She would still lunge. Today on our walk, I started the same way. She did lunge the first time. I was a little frightened but she was fine. When the next bike passed, I prepped her by giving a gentle tug and telling her to 'leave it'. She went at it a little, but a lot less than the first one. We passed several bikes and skaters on our walk. (I live by a lake that is well travelled). By then end, she totally ignored all bikes and only pulled slightly at the sight of other dogs. I am so pleased. I actually enjoyed walking with my dogs for the first time ever. I am sad that the weather is not going to be nice tomorrow because I am now looking forward to walking my dogs. Would I recommend this product? Absolutely YES. I just ordered a collar for my daughter's corgi. When I read the reviews about other owners and their struggles, I have to believe it is because they are not reading their dogs behavior before the lunging event happens. I am pleased how well it went for the first time using the product. I can not attest to the longevity or durability of the links but they do include a safety collar, which I used. If you are worried that your dog will break through the linked collar AND the safety collar, then you have bigger problems that need to be address with a trainer. The collar alone won't 'fix' your dog's behaviors. It is a great tool though. ## Features - Age Range Description: All Life Stages - Special Features: Adjustable - Helps train your dog gently and effectively - High-strength link design fits together in watchband pattern - 20-inch circumference fits larger dogs - Links can be removed or added (additional links sold separately) - Created by certified experts at Triple Crown Dog Academy, Inc. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000A6BD5K | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Animal Collar Type | Animal Pinch Collar | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,437 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #34 in Basic Dog Collars | | Brand | Starmark | | Brand Name | Starmark | | Breed Recommendation | Large, Medium | | Closure Type | slip_on | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 15,493 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Large, Medium | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00873199000362 | | Included Components | Links | | Item Dimensions L x W | 21"L x 1"W | | Item Display Dimensions | 21 x 0.9 x 1 x 1 inches | | Item Length | 20 Inches | | Item Type Name | StarMark Training Collar | | Manufacturer | Triple Crown | | Manufacturer Part Number | TCLC | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | TCLC | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | training | | Pattern | Solid | | Pet Type | Dog | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash | | Size | Large | | Target Species | Dog | | UPC | 873199000362 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Starmark - **Color:** Black - **Item Display Dimensions:** 21 x 0.9 x 1 x 1 inches - **Material:** Plastic - **Pattern:** Solid ## Images ![Starmark Pro-Training Dog Collar Large - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616Jf7IRQHL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: length of the large size?** A: How do I buy extra links for a large collar. **Q: Will this fit my pitbull** A: I have an APBT and it fit her neck. It is adjustable. **Q: I have an Akita puppy (6 mos 78lbs) he's a puller, with strong Akita traits (plush thick, fur extra scruff at neck) wondering if this will work?** A: I didn't have much luck with my husky mix (thick fur,) but this works on my pit mix (thin fur.) I got a metal prong collar after the pit mix broke my husband's arm (pulled him down after she lunged at a passing dog,) and trained her on that, but this plastic one is now pretty effective on her. I'd probably go with a metal prong for an Akita. **Q: I have a medium sized dog. Is it possible to buy a large collar and then take some links out to adjust for size?** A: Yes. I had to add links to my dogs collar as he grew. It is very easy and that was one of the things I really liked about this collar. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great! *by K***E on April 17, 2026* Very pleased with how well this worked!

The metal prong collar worked well, but I felt the prongs were dangerous in certain circumstances. This collar's teeth seem more gentle than the prongs, yet pointy enough to get the message across. I've only used it a handful of times... he is walking without pulling most of the time. Plus I got a harness that also seems to work better than just a collar. Had a bad experience with the prong collar. When he was about 7-8 months old we walked to the park and 4 lab mix dogs attacked us. When they charged at us, my dog tried to run, but I had hold of the leash. The prongs squeezed into his neck causing him to cry out as I was busy kicking the dogs away from us. The more my dog pulled, the more the prongs hurt, the more scared he got. Luckily the owner of the 4 dogs got there in time. But from that day on, I have not put that prong collar back on. I don't think this collar would have hurt near as much. The construction is actually better than expected, especially in this price range. Seems pretty sturdy. Color is a dark blue that doesn't look as bad as I thought it might. Was hoping for color selections like black or camo or dark brown. But the blue isn't that bad. It also doesn't look quite as menacing on the dog as prong collars do. Just a little thick and heavy looking (although collar is very light weight. Now I sometimes just carry in my pocket on long walks in case he gets in a pulling mood. If considering a prong collar to stop the pulling, I would highly recommend trying this one first. We also have a gentle leader - which works pretty well, but he really doesn't like the strap on his nose. And tried the Easy Walk harness where leash attaches to the front opposed to the back. It works OK. Cuts down on pulling. The current harness is great - light weight, comfortable (at least seems to be, Brody likes it). It is an EzyDog Padded Chest Harness. Would recommend - got it at TheDogOutdoors.com about $24. ## Frequently Bought Together - Starmark Pro-Training Dog Collar Large - Starmark Pro-Training Dog Collar Add-A-Link Large - Heavy Duty Dog Leash - 2 Handles by Padded Traffic Handle for Extra Control, 6foot Long - Perfect for Medium to Large Dogs (6 ft, Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1203887-starmark-pro-training-dog-collar-large](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1203887-starmark-pro-training-dog-collar-large) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
