Dogtra ARC-X Remote Training Collar
The Dogtra ARC-X is a slim, low-profile remote training collar for dogs from approximately 7kg. It gives you precise off-lead control, without the bulk of a larger working-dog collar.
With 100 low-to-medium static levels, XPP vibration, audible tone, BOOST, level lock, a 1200 metre range and an IPX9K waterproof rating, the ARC-X is ideal for general obedience, recall, lead manners and everyday remote training.
Best for most dogs
The ARC-X has 100 low-to-medium static levels. It is a better fit for responsive dogs, general obedience and recall work than for very stubborn or extremely high-drive hunting dogs.
Slim curved receiver
The curved receiver sits closer to the dog’s neck, making it more comfortable and discreet than a large square receiver module.
Expandable for multi-dog training
Train up to 3 dogs from one transmitter by adding compatible Dogtra X-Series receivers. Each dog can be selected from the remote for clear, separate control.
Why choose the Dogtra ARC-X?
- 100 precise levels: fine-tune the stimulation level to match your dog’s response.
- Low-to-medium output: suited to general obedience, recall and dogs that do not need a high-output collar.
- Nick and Continuous modes: use either a quick momentary correction or controlled continuous output.
- XPP vibration: a strong non-static cue that can be used for attention, recall or silent communication.
- Audible tone: useful as a marker, warning cue or recall signal once trained.
- BOOST function: gives fast access to a higher preset level when extra attention is needed.
- Safety level lock: helps prevent accidental changes to the selected stimulation level.
- LED e-collar light: improves visibility in low light, long grass or night training.
Metric product dimensions
The ARC-X receiver is substantially smaller and lighter than the 1900X receiver, making it a better fit for dogs that do not need a large high-output working-dog collar.
