My dog loves to go mountainbiking with me. This doesn’t really work with a leash (obviously), so a training collar comes in very handy on the off chance he sees a squirrel or something and wants to chase (Otherwise he’s very well behaved).

My issue is that the remote is not very easily/quickly accessible when I have it in my pocket. What I need is either, a training collar with a more ‘handsfree’ type of remote, or a different mounting solution for my current remote.

Current ideas include:

-wrist mount (like a watch or something maybe)

-arm mount

-chest mount/strap mount?

-handlebar mount

-belt mount

Let me know if you have any ideas, or if you know of an out-of-the-box solution that’s not going to cost an arm and a leg. I don’t need a super high end training collar, because his behavior isn’t that high maintenance and also I can’t really afford it either.

    I definitely get the preference on the remote, though I personally prefer it over the larger more rectangular ones. The mini educator fits in my stupid tiny girl pockets lol. But you are absolutely correct, for the expense you should get exactly what you want and that preference is different for everyone! Glad you found something that works for you!
