Product Description
Cesar Millan, the acclaimed dog behavior expert, has cared for and rehabilitated dogs for most of his life. Cesar's philosophy espouses that there are no bad dogs. Unruly and aggressive behaviors result from lack of proper training - people training. Cesar and his wife Ilusion realized that owners want to properly control their dogs during walks, but often lacked the necessary tools to do so. They designed The Illusion Dog Training Collar to assist owners in achieving maximum control during walks.
It is sized for small to large breeds. The small collar is for dog's with a 13-15 inch measurement around the base of the neck; the medium collar is for 16-19 inch measurements around the base of the neck; and the large collar is for dog's with 20-23 inch measurements around the base of the neck.

Mastering the walk November 11, 2009
C. Canty (Poinciana, FL United States)
The Illusion collar's been helping me a lot on the walks with my Lab. Although it's medium size, it fits her right. She used to be a big puller, but it's easier to control her on the leash by pulling it up and to the side, so she snaps out of whatever I don't want her to focus on. Obviously, I'm training myself as well by trying to stay calm and assertive (Cesar's way). The Illusion collar/right energy combo is working!
 Great Collar & leash set! October 18, 2009

This item worked wonderfully with our very hard to walk dog, now she walks right next to me, no pulling or anything!
Works great! July 29, 2009

I have a great mixed breed dog (Gabby) who has gone through professional training and is mostly well behaved. However, her Achilles heel is other dogs! On walks, if she sees another dog, she absolutely looses her mind. She foams at the mouth, growls, barks, and dances around on the end of the leash trying to get to the dog. She is far too strong to be physically contained, and she is so crazy that she absolutely does not hear voice commands. We tried everything, including teaching her to focus on us with a treat. This worked if the dog was some distance away, but if it gets close, forget it, you can hold a steak in front of her face, she wouldn't notice. Not only is her behavior very embarrassing, but both myself and my wife have gotten hurt trying to contain her (she doesn't bite, but has actually knocked me over in her craziness). It reached the point where we would actively try to avoid other dog walkers to avoid these scenes. We even considered paying for one-on-one dog training. However, before going that route, we decided to try the Illusion collar. It works like a charm! We had barely started our first walk using the collar when we encountered a friendly, yet unleashed dog who was not listening to voice commands! As the dog approached us, Gabby immediately went into a frenzy. The great news was that the frenzy lasted about five seconds as she realized that she was choking herself. She immediately responded to the "sit" command and calmed down. Her hackles were raised, but no more scene. In fact, another dog went by at this point, and she remained seated. We encountered about four more dogs on the walk, and each time the intensity of her behavior became less, to where we passed the last dog with her only looking back a few times! Clearly the collar does what it is supposed to.
I would say that it probably works better with a trained dog who knows to respond to commands and with an owner who has some idea of how to control their dog and won't rely on choking the dog, but rather will redirect their behavior to something more desirable. Having said that, I would recommend this product to anyone who has a dog that cannot pass other dogs without loosing their marbles and does not respond to other training techniques (believe me, if this is your dog, you know what I am talking about!). I have read many reviews of this product where people rail on users for not using other training techniques, believe me, for some dogs, these don't work in all cases. If this is your dog, this collar is a great. It is a bit of a pain to put on, and you have to make sure that you get it all right, but it is worth it!
Illusion collar works better than a traditional choke collar July 4, 2009

This collar acts as a lead and does offer better control over the dog. I use this and a hiking backpack made for dogs and Baxter is walking on a mission---hes a completely different walking companion.
Dogs really enter into a different mindset when they feel like they are 'working'. I am slowly adding wieght to the pack and his response has been awesome.
Good job on the collar Cesar.
I can only suggest that they offer it in a couple more colors! :)

Best collar for dogs that pull when on a leash. It gives complete control because the collar does not slip down on the neck. It stays up behind the head and a gentle jerk when the dog is not walking beside you corrects the problem.
