Does it come with long probes for long haired dogs

They are about 3/4 inch or so. If you have a dog with REALLY long thick hair just move some of it out of the way. It doesn't take long before the dog responses to just the beeping. Then how long the probes are won't matter.

Thank you for your question! This collar comes with both long and short probes for various coat lengths.

It comes with long and short probes. I have a wire haired dog and use the long ones. The collar is excellent. My dog listens to me. I only use the sound to get his attention after a couple hours of training using this collar. it's also waterproof - this is a great product.

No..it comes with an extra set of studs for the collar that are longer for thick coated dogs. This fence worked awesome for us.

Yes just make sure you get the probes on tight. Mine became unscrewed and had to buy new prongs. But the collar is great.

I have a Newfy, lots of fur and wrinkles, the longish probes, as long as the collar is snug, work great! I use the buzzer as a warning, then the shock. So now all I need is the buzz and I have his full attention. Well actually, now all I need is to put the collar on, havent used the buttons in months.

I think you may have a problem. The unit itself is a small box about 2" x about 1.5" with the spray nozzles sort of in the middle of the short end. They need free space to spray out. If your dog's hair is longer than that, and thick, you might have a problem. Alternatively, it does spray pretty powerfully, so perhaps the odor and the wet fur will be enough for your dog to detect it and respond accordingly. :-)

I have the long hair version. It's about 7". I asked that question at the Pet Store and I was told not much. My dog has long and what I loved about it is it also gets the undercoat beside the top coat. I live in So. Texas where it get really hot and she is so much happier. I hope this helps.

I have two German Shepherds and have only used it on their bellies and paws. It works well there but I don' believe it will clean a long haired dog's fur well. I don't think it was intended for that purpose.

It only has one length, but my dog is a spanel and she has pretty long thick fur and it works well for her.

The kit includes 2 "electrodes", one short, and the other long. The long one is supposed to be for long-haired dogs. However, the one I received didn't work at all.

The one I received, was weirdly long but shallow, i.e. no where close to covering my dog's girth which was not excessive. I am guessing no.

There are plastic protection inserts that need to be removed. I also recently found out that the accessory tips ( alligator, mini clips etc.) attach to the ends of the long probes and of course the long probes attach to the leads. Kinda like a puzzle until you figure them out.

Yes, it comes with two probes (1x or 10x selectable). Additionally, there are two hook tips included for the probes.

The receiver attaches on th sides. The length of the electrodes goes according to the length of dogs fur. The longer and thicker use the long electrodes. Thinner and shorter hair use the short electrodes.

I would probably be long enough for your dog but I was very unhappy with the product. I have tried it on about 20 different dogs and it only worked on one of them.

The prongs are more than long enough for our pit bull. Amazing response on minimal setting - he learned his limits within minutes. It may take a slightly higher setting than we use to compensate for the extra hair. No problems at all - love the system!

Depends on the breed. I bought the short hair for two English Bulldog's and a Labrador. The girlfriend that recommended the Furminator to me uses a long hair on her Golden Retrievers. A dog is not considered "long hair" unless their fur is 2" long or longer. Hope this helps!

My dog's fur varies in length, so no, I bought the long haired one. I saw a picture of a German Shepard on amazon and the owner had purchased a long haired, so I thought that was similar to my dog's fur. It gets thicker and longer towards her hind legs. I will try to repost a picture with my review. I did brush my friends shorter hair dog with mine and it worked on her too.
