Educator CPAD-011 Winged Brass Contact Pads for Dog Training Collar Receivers – Fits RX-090, RX-120 & RX-1000 – For Long or Thick Coat Dogs – Not Compatible with RX-070 or ME-300

I've got a 100 lb. shepherd mix with a very dense double-coat. I bought the Educator ET 300 mini a couple of years ago with the ultimate aim of achieving safe off-leash freedom for him wherever that is allowed. I tried all the different contact points that came in the kit and found them all to be hit-or-miss in terms of consistent, reliable contact (and therefore, communication). When the contacts worked, the collar was an amazingly effective tool. But since timing is so critical in communicating and training, the inconsistency, the failures to deliver the signal exactly when needed (or far too often, not at all), significantly undermined the process. I wound up using the "tapping"/pager function of the collar because he could at least feel it every time I hit the button. In low distraction situations and inside games like "hide and seek", the pager got 100% responses. However, there were times, outside, with big distractions, when it just wasn't enough to get his attention. For the longest time, the price of this CPAD contact seemed just too high to be worth it. To get the e-stim function to work reliably, I bought the longest contacts available, tried tightening the collar, experimented with different placements on his neck, etc. But no matter what I tried, contact was always inconsistent. When the signal went through, I get a good response. But more often than not, he didn't feel a thing. It was very frustrating. A couple of weeks ago, I finally "bit the bullet" and ordered this contact pad. It's been absolutely amazing. With his collar significantly looser, he is still getting consistent contact, feeling the communication signal clearly with the dial set as low 4 or 5 (out of 100). This pad has finally turned the Educator Mini into the powerful, humane, effective training tool it was always meant to be. It's worth every penny to be back on track to getting him the freedom he deserves!

Bought this product for my dogs e- collar. It fits perfectly & does the job that regular e-collar probes don’t get the coverage.

Have an 85 LB catahoula leopard dog, coarse fur, not long but I can lower the Level of shock, and get the same results. We Don't need to have the collar quite as tight. Excellent product, coming up on a year of use and working great and never loosened up, holding tight. He did bend one side just a bit once out in the woods, but he love to roll around, and was just an easy pushing it back into proper alignment. I love we run with collar a notch or two less tight.

After months of struggling with inconsistent collar contact on my thick-coated GSD, this CPAD-011 comfort pad solved everything instantly. The winged design with gold-plated titanium wings and brass contact points allows a looser neck fit while maintaining deep skin contact, perfect for his sensitive skin and dense double coat. No more hair trimming required for effectiveness this pad is specifically designed for long-haired breeds and eliminates the need to constantly groom around the collar area. The stable collar contact prevents fluctuating output currents, reducing fear and discomfort during training sessions. Installation was foolproof and it stays securely attached. Training consistency improved dramatically within days. My stubborn shepherd finally responds reliably at lower stimulation levels because the contact is so much better. Made in the USA with a one-year warranty and compatible with Mini Educator and EZ 900 series. Worth every penny, this tiny accessory transformed our entire training routine!

Works well but it appeared to rub my dog’s neck raw. I would find scabs around his neck where this was used. It's was recommended by our dog trainer. It would be nice if it gmhad rubber tips like another collar I have.

Fits the sportdog collar I have just fine with the right fastener. Tested it on myself and has same strength as the original prongs. If you order this for a sportdog just head over to your hardware store and find steel or brass round flat bolts and washers that fit the threads.

Durability is excellent, second one I've bought and never had any issues with it structurally.

This is amazing! I had to replace the original one that came with my dogs collar because it somehow broke and the warranty does not cover it. This fit perfectly and I have not had a single problem with it so far.

I was having intermittent contact problems with a Mini Educator and a Belgian Malinois because of the thickness of the fur on her mane (Mali owners will know what I mean). This has pretty much solved the problem and is clearly more comfortable for the dog

excelente é a palavra melhrou 10000% o contato o que me fez reduxior o estimulo para o real de 6 e usava 10 SERVE PERFEITAMENTE NA DOGTRA

Item as described. Very happy customer.

My chocolate lab, Georgie, has VERY thick fur around his neck; it’s like a lion’s mane. The original nubs didn’t make contact so I searched for alternatives compatible with his Mini Educator. It solved our problem beautifully, and the price is very reasonable.

Gekocht omdat de standaard pinnen geen contact maakten en langere pinnen pijn en wondjes veroorzaakten. Deze waren absoluut niet comfortabel. De uiteinden zijn heel hard en niet flexibel. In de plaats degene voor kortharigen gekocht, voor mijn Zwitserse herder. Deze maakten goed contact en nooit last van pijn/oncomfortabel gehad. Wel gebroken na 6 maand normaal gebruik. Heel jammer.
