My dog loves to go mountainbiking with me. This doesn’t really work with a leash (obviously), so a training collar comes in very handy on the off chance he sees a squirrel or something and wants to chase (Otherwise he’s very well behaved).

My issue is that the remote is not very easily/quickly accessible when I have it in my pocket. What I need is either, a training collar with a more ‘handsfree’ type of remote, or a different mounting solution for my current remote.

Current ideas include:

-wrist mount (like a watch or something maybe)

-arm mount

-chest mount/strap mount?

-handlebar mount

-belt mount

Let me know if you have any ideas, or if you know of an out-of-the-box solution that’s not going to cost an arm and a leg. I don’t need a super high end training collar, because his behavior isn’t that high maintenance and also I can’t really afford it either.

    For sure I’d try using a handlebar mount close to your thumb with Velcro tape. If you don’t have enough room there then it might be a good idea to 3D print a little platform to hold it on.
