### 5/5 — Great fence and remote trainer app

*2024-02-17*

The fence keeps the dogs in, and the remote from my phone directly to the collar stops them from jumping and baking too much. Best thing ever for an excitable dog!!!

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2024-02-17, version 4.0.9*

I chose the app collar over the non app collar and I am happy that I did. On more than one occasion I have needed the phone correction tool to help with jumping on guests. I was even surprised when I messaged my dealer through the app on a Sunday asking a silly question and someone actually responded!

### 5/5 — The app does help

*2024-02-16, version 4.0.9*

The app does help me to correct my dogs unwanted behaviors. It works best in a “sting” approach, so already connected, waiting for the dog to mess up. I mostly use it for indoors since outside my dogs fence can get him out of Bluetooth range. Being able to reset collar functions is helpful so I don’t have to call my dealer. I have also lost my collar outside and used the app and beep from the remote trainer to help to find it. I would recommend.

### 5/5 — LINK review

*2024-02-16, version 4.0.9*

Great product, most humane way to train a dog with gentlesteps and with a remote trainer app on your phone it’s great for training puppies!

### 5/5 — Home owner

*2024-02-15*

The app works as described. It is not a remote trainer for distance, but does do what it's supposed to do. It is a little slow, but overall it a good product.

### 5/5 — Low expectations due to rating

*2024-02-08, version 4.0.9*

I’ve recently upgraded from my invisible fence brand collar to this Pet Stop collar for my system. The simple fact I can adjust a correction level on my phone rather than drive to a store so they can do it is a game changer. My dealer explained how to properly use the app to do exactly what I want it to do. It has never failed me.

### 5/5 — Link Pet Stop Collar

*2024-02-01*

I love the convenience to change levels for my dog and to use the remote trainer to help with behaviors.   Great 2 in 1 tool.

### 5/5 — Link App

*2024-02-01, version 4.0.9*

Like the link App as an add on to my PetStop Fence. Lots of updates along the way, which I appreciate Petstop’s always striving to make it better. Love that I can tone my pups to get their attention and the night light is a god sent.

### 5/5 — Overall great product!

*2024-02-01, version 4.0.9*

Love the remote trainer!!

### 5/5 — So convenient!

*2023-05-15, version 4.0.6*

I love this app! Of course it has limitations (Bluetooth distance, you must anticipate the behavior so you’re connect to the collar) but otherwise I find it’s very effective. After a few months I only had to show music the phone if he was about to misbehave! The convenience of changing the shock level myself is awesome!

### 2/5 — Needs improvement big time

*2023-04-06, version 4.0.6*

I have had this for 2 years and the app needs so much improvement….the battery in the app is not accurate at ALL !!! I find this very concerning. I paid extra for the added safety of seeing the battery life and I’m not getting that. Very disappointed. Come on you can do better

### 2/5 — Way to slow and bad data

*2022-12-08, version 4.0.5*

We have had this for 2 years. The app is sooooo slow to connect to thw collar and often the behavior is over. It also dowant reach very far. If my dog is in the back yard, it will not connect. Lastly, the lastest update changed the way the data for wanrnings and corrections happen. I hate the calender and wish I could click to see the exact data a correction or warning took place not a date range. I really like the idea of the app but it needs to be improved.

### 2/5 — Limited range

*2022-12-05, version 4.0.5*

Must be within 15 feet to connect to the collar.  
Pretty common that your dog may be more than 15feet away, wish I wouldve had this detail before installing the system as I picked for the app feature.

### 5/5 — Perfect training tool

*2022-10-12, version 4.0.1*

This app works wonders if you use it as instructed. My pet stop dealer sat down with me for an hour showing me exactly how to use it. For the first few weeks, whenever we were cooking in the kitchen I had the collar connected and would correct the dog when he would start sniffing at the counter and I knew he was about to jump! After one week, he was barely interested in this any longer. You have to stay consistent to actually stop the behavior and not be scrambling for your phone when it’s too late, as many of the previous reviews experienced. If you use this app correctly, you will actually see real improvement with your dogs behaviors. I absolutely love it and highly recommend.

### 1/5 — Collar out of range at 10 (or so) feet!

*2024-10-12, version 4.0.9*

My dog has adapted to the fence and flags quite well.  However, I was counting on the app to be able to control “bad” behavior in the yard liking eating grass, nuts, sticks etc.   

The app only works if he is what appears to be next to me.   Pretty much useless.  And the sound is next to nothing!   

Thoughts?

### 1/5 — View breach

*2024-01-22, version 4.0.9*

We can no longer see where our pet has been near fence

### 1/5 — No such thing as “peace of mind”

*2023-06-27, version 4.0.6*

Thinking about saving some money and getting a Pet Stop Invisible Fence instead of the better known brand? DON’T!! This has been the most stressful year of our lives. The app barely ever works and continuously tells us “Invalid Pin” if it lets us connect at all. I could continue on, but what’s the point. DON’T DO IT!!

### 1/5 — Too Slow and Wring Collar

*2023-02-16, version 4.0.6*

I have been using this app for over a year now. By the time it connects to the collar, usually the dog is done doing the bad habit. I have three dogs using this.  When I connect to the dogs collar that needs to be corrected, it will connect to the wrong collar and correct the wrong dog.  I then have to remove all of the collars from the app and reconnect them all to fix this issue. I’ve had to do this multiple times. I would really like to see this fixed!

### 1/5 — New App Version

*2023-01-26, version 4.0.6*

Old version was so much better. With this version you cannot tell how many warnings or corrections your dog is getting. New version is this silly calendar view without even a legend to tell you what it means. The Pet Stop fence works fine but this app is totally useless

### 1/5 — Poor performance

*2022-09-20, version 4.0.1*

This app is great in theory, but does not perform well enough to meet expectations. It takes way way way too long to connect to the collar, by the time it gets connected it’s no longer needed. Also, the range isn’t far enough to be useful and it’s always disconnecting. Please work to improve this because it is useful if it worked properly.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2022-09-15, version 4.0.1*

Never works for me. Won’t accept pin. There’s not even a way to reset the pin.

### 1/5 — not reliable at all!

*2022-08-11, version 4.0.1*

do not rely on this app to remember the collar itself. everytime you open the app you have to reinstall the collar being used. there is absolutely no reliability. the collar and app do not connect for about 20/30 mins. if at all. your dog has now moved onto 87 other things before the app will connect to the collar. and if it does happen to connect, god forbid the dog moves more than 3 feet from you because - you guessed it! it disconnects and you have to start all over! so glad we paid extra to upgrade 🙄 when i called to ask why this was happening they told me to reset the collar by placing it on the dock…. of o have to do this everytime the collar will be on the dock more than the dog?! this is more hassle then it’s worth so far

### 1/5 — New update is horrible

*2022-04-05, version 3.0.6*

We selected our electronic fence because of the remote trainer feature. Feature worked great on the way old app. Upgraded the app and now it takes forever to connect and just spins. So disappointed.

### 1/5 — Unstable App

*2022-01-06, version 3.0.5*

This app is totally unusable. Was able to setup and connect to my collar, but the next time I try to use it the app just hangs on the blue loading screen. Every trouble shooting technique has not helped.

### 5/5 — Best thing for my Dog in the Hudson Valley

*2025-10-17, version 4.1.7*

Loved this feature for my pets  they stay safe away from the Pet Stop line

### 5/5 — Home owner

*2025-07-23, version 4.1.6*

The app works as described. It is not a remote trainer for distance, but does do what it's supposed to do. It is a little slow, but overall it a good product.

### 5/5 — Link Collar

*2025-07-23, version 4.1.6*

Great system.  Love it for helping with behavior training and it’s rechargeable.

### 5/5 — Good Product

*2025-01-27, version 4.0.9*

Very happy with Link set up. Dog was trained quickly

### 5/5 — Love the App and Collar

*2024-03-16, version 4.0.9*

We’ve had our unseen fence since 2014 and recently got another rescue dog so needed new collar and the fence reflagged. Bernie Knight who is always very responsive took us through the training and showed us how to use the app which is super simple. I can’t recommend this collar and app enough.  Easy to use and when I first saw it open I thought it was intimidating but it’s actually very intuitive. Our dog has adapted to everything very well and it’s given both us and the dog a new level of freedom.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-02-21, version 4.0.9*

This app is amazing! It transforms my Pet Stop collar into a remote trainer that works inside and outside of my Pet Stop dog fence. Now I can use the this when I take my dog on walks or to the park. My GSP responds great to the beep. My dealer is also able to make adjustments to the collar remotely so I don’t have to wait for a visit from them! Highly recommended

### 5/5 — The best training tool!

*2024-02-20, version 4.0.9*

Completely stopped my dog from jumping on people at the front door. It has been life changing!

### 5/5 — Fence is the best, but add this remote option to stop jumping is great

*2024-02-20, version 4.0.9*

Being able to adjust my dogs level from my phone is so easy. My favorite part of this app is the remote control that activates the collar to curb bad behaviors. I was able to stop my dog from jumping on visitors at the door, and stop the aggressive barking out the windows as other dogs walk by. My dog has calmed down so much since using this app and being trained by the trainer.

### 5/5 — Consumer friendly features

*2024-02-20, version 4.0.9*

Love the features on the app! Makes it super easy to get support from my dealer remotely. Also really like being able to adjust fence settings myself without having to pay for a dealer to come onsite.

### 5/5 — Great App, no body else close!

*2024-02-19, version 4.0.9*

I love this app!  It is great for seeing my dogs usage stats and I love the use of Bluetooth for both program adjustments and for a remote training feature!  I highly recommend this manufacturer for several reasons but it’s especially great that’s it’s engineered and assembled in the USA!
