The Tri-Tronics dial. Four buttons. No menus. The Sport PRO is the e-collar that works the way you think.
The Garmin Sport PRO is the direct successor to the Tri-Tronics Sport Basic G3 — one of the best-selling e-collars ever made — and it takes everything that made the original a favorite among both professionals and first-time owners and builds on it. The interface is the same intuitive dial-and-button layout that Tri-Tronics made famous: a quick-turn rheostat dial with positive, audible clicks so you can change stimulation levels by feel without ever looking down. Four buttons give you immediate access to continuous stimulation, momentary stimulation, vibration, and tone. Rotate the dial to the auxiliary position and those same two small buttons take on a second function: one controls the beacon lights on the collar, the other controls the BarkLimiter — both remotely, from the handheld. The collar does not need to be touched once it’s on the dog.
The Sport PRO supports up to three dogs from a single handheld. A three-position toggle switch near the top of the transmitter face selects between dogs — black, blue, and red — matching the collar color of each PT 10 dog device. Switching between dogs in the field is a single thumb movement. Range is ¾ mile, and the BarkLimiter uses AutoRise technology, which automatically escalates correction levels if nuisance barking continues, then resets. Both functions can be toggled on and off from the handheld without touching the collar.
The transmitter is IPX7 waterproof and floats — useful if it ends up in the water at a duck blind or during a creek crossing. The PT 10 collar is rated to 1 ATM (10 meters), handling full submersion without issue. Both units run on user-replaceable lithium-ion batteries rated at approximately 60 hours per charge. LED battery indicators on both the handheld and the collar give you green, amber, and red status at a glance.
Compatibility note: The Sport PRO uses PT series collar devices (PT 5, PT 6, PT 10) and is not compatible with Tri-Tronics G2/G3 EXP collars or any other Garmin training collar line. If you’re upgrading from an older Tri-Tronics system, the collars do not cross over — only the familiar dial interface carries over.
For hunters who need GPS tracking in addition to remote training, the Sport PRO handheld includes a built-in spine mount for Garmin accessories. For those needing more stimulation precision or a wider training range, see the Garmin Pro 550 Plus.

Customer Reviews
- Garmin is a great unitBy:Robert Hunt
This is a very good product it replaced a Garmin unit that was 11 years old. (4/7/2025)- Exactly what I wantedBy:Michael
This collar works great. It super easy to use with one hand. I have been using it for a few days now while hiking and mountain biking with the dog. I really like that the shock isn't too strong but the dog immediately reacts to it. I've only had to give him a few shocks and he is learning suoer quickly. The only thing I can recommend is that you buy some type of clip to attach the remote too. I really like the backpack clip and belt clip. (2/1/2022)- Best e-collar on the market By:Sarah Jensen
This collar is amazing. The range is far and that’s just what we need. Very effective too. The flashlight is a Great option! (12/6/2021)- Excellent By:Dorothy
Huskies are notoriously stubborn and mine is no different. I have tried various e-collars and fencing for my dog. The Sport Pro e-collar is the only one that she responds to. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys the outdoors with their pet. (11/19/2020)- Excellent Training ToolBy:Aaron Hills
My wife and I purchased this for our Vizsla and have been very pleased with the functionality of the collar and results. As with any training tool, it's all about taking the time to introduce to your dog(s) properly. The range and performance are just as advertised and recharging both units is easy. Would highly recommend! (7/16/2020)- very satisfiedBy:steve sherritt
Ive gone through a couple of pet store training collars that didn't hold up well over time; reception was not as good as rated on the box. This collar and control are durable and responsive working as advertised; easy to switch between 2 dogs. (1/29/2019)- Great By:Thomas Kinder
I have purchased many "waterproof" and "long range" collars before, and sadly been let down with all of them. With this collar my dog can spend as much time as she wants running through creeks and I have no problems with the collar responding to my controls. Highly recommend this collar, well worth the money. (9/15/2017)- ExcellentBy:James Bergin
Performs all the functions as described in the manual. The bark-limiter function also works really well with out German Shepard. It's in no way cruel and the dog has quickly learned to bark a few times and then quit. He's not been fully silenced, which is good, so he still can voice an alert when a car pulls up outside etc. As a consequence of controlling his excessive barking, the stress level in our household is much reduced. (6/21/2017)- Works great!By:Christie Kennedy
This product works as advertised. We go camping a lot and always put glow sticks on our dogs at night so we know where they are, so the beacon light works wonderful instead of using glow sticks. The collar fits well on our 40lb dog and isn't too bulky or heavy for her. (6/21/2017)- PerfectBy:James Martin
This is a great training tool for my large dog. The vibrate and tone features are mainly all I use and rarely ever have to use the shock feature because he responds so well to the others....but it's nice to know I have that option if I need it. Collar and remote seem very durable and it has great range. My dog really likes the light feature too when going outside at night. I don't use the bark control feature so I am not able to comment on the effectiveness. Overall, great product and I would hands down purchase this again or another collar to pair with the single remote if I were to get another dog. (5/11/2017)- Quality By:Shawn Watson
So far this is the best dog training collar we have used, it absolutely does what it says it will. (2/21/2017)- Nice to toggle between three dogsBy:Quentin Scarberry
Durable easy to use great product for anyone who has more than one dog. Easy to train new dogs who has no e collar training. (4/6/2016)- Quality Garmin productBy:Caleb Jenkins
This has helped greatly in helping me train my dogs. After a few months of low level corrections, they respond positively to the time function, allowing me to not need to use harder corrections. Will be buying a 3rd collar for our new puppy as well. Love that one remote can run 3 collars. (3/31/2016)- Ruff and Tuff By:Emily Woodland
The tough rugged design was exactly what we needed for our Chesapeake. The mud and grit do not bother the collar. After a few electrotherapy sessions after tone; our pup responds to the the tone and at most the vibration. This has been a great hunting tool and we highly recommend. Setting decoys with the LEDs eluminated we never lose track of the dog in the dark. The functions are simple with no fumbling around with small buttons. For the price range this is the collar to purchase. (2/11/2016)- GREAT PRODUCT By:Danny Johnson
This is without a doubt the best money I have spent on anything. I'm normally pretty skeptical when ordering things like this. After following the instructions and doing some research on how to use these collars, it literally changed my dog the first day. If you are considering getting one of these collars and wondering if it will work for your dog. I can assure you if it worked for my dog it will work for yours. I highly recommend it I could not be more pleased with this collar and my dog. Thank you guys for such a great product. (10/29/2015)
