What's the best product you've purchased for your Dobie??
IE: Collar, leash, harness, toys, bed, treats, transportation aids....etc

Dog crate. It is good for potty training and if used correctly is a safe place for your dog to go to. It is more then obvious that Jagangs crate is his safe place. We had some stuff fall (In a closet) and he took off right into his crate. To me security is a big thing for him especially now being in a new home and all....

Probably the new Euro trial sleeve I bought. It is from Slovakia. Light weight and easy flexibility. Also have a nice black line sleeve also light weight. My Dean and Tyler sleeves are very durable but a little heavier and can leave your arm with some bruises if used with many dogs in a row.
Also have a nice Redline sleeve, very durable but much heavier. I wouldn't buy it if you were planning on working a club full of dogs.

I bought Kali for Mars. Turns out the best thing i ever bought either of us. 
Probably not quite the answer you were looking for but its the truth.. I guess as fas as monetary things go.. Our property is the best thing we bought for the dogs.. Before that i had 4 Dobermans in a Mobile Home park there was no real issue because they thought i only owned i red and one black.. I t wasnt until they seen me walking 2 reds one day that they began to think i had three dobermans in the park.. That was the beginning of the end and we were forced to give up the dogs or find some property to move our trailer on.. We moved and still have three of the original four.. I know still not an actual product.. The flirt pole was a fun purchase the dogs all love except for Mars who could care less.

Crate when they're pups.
Spot Bot both for when they're pups having accidents and even now if they vomit on the carpet or something gets spilled.
E-collars so they can run free on all of our property with us, but we can still get immediate recall if something happens that they start bolting to a dangerous area.

Definitely the flirt pole. I decided to give one a try after reading so many rave reviews and I am so glad I did. I bought mine off of ebay (Squishy face brand)... and it is so nice.
It really has been so great in wearing him out physically and mentally.

The best thing......hmmm.....I don't know why, but for Buddy the first thing that comes to mind is his new bed. 
It's so comfy and my heart melts every time I see him in it!
For Kali, it just could be the e-collar. We have a lot of property and I really wanted to give her her freedom but she was, IS, so damn fast!! That girl can be like a bullet and it was very easy to lose her in tall grass, behind bushes, et. And being small I always worry about predators. So I needed a way to get her back to me....NOW. It's worked so well, most of the time I don't even turn it on.
Probably the other 'best thing' for me is the break away cat collar with a BELL for Kali. I could not be without that! Again, she's so small and when I lose sight of her for even a moment, I am panicked. So hearing that bell is a lifesaver for me. And being a break away collar I don't worry about her getting hung up on a bush or even Buddy's teeth.
Favorite toys are the Chuck It balls!

I'm also looking for a harness that also has a handle grip on the top and easy connect for leashes

Kris' two wire crates, one for the house and one for the Van. Also, her e-collar and prong collar although I don't use either of them very much any more but sure made training her a lot easier on both of us.

Is there a specific e collar that everyone is using?

I use tge educator now, I really like it and for the price it is the best deal. Settings from 0-100. Here is a great video I'm it . Funny yet informative.
Best thing I've ever used is a frozen wash cloth while teething, a crate for potty training,sleep, and transportation. Nylabone and icecubes also for teething. Don't use a leash till she is old enough we use a training leash now about to transfer to a prong collar for his schutzhund class but not till its approved by our trainer. lol and our other dogs to wear him out

We have a wide buckle collar on him but right now she so young you just need the basic she can't and shouldn't be walking or doing anything at this point she just a baby baby so it's all play play play till about 5 months

And you certainly don't need an e collar at this stage and shouldn't use one unless you are educated on how to use one. Like I said right now she's a baby and should be treated like one lots of love affection and redirection when it comes to biting you. Try not to yell just simply redirect her to a toy and say good or yes in a happy voice eventually she will get it but mistakes will happen. We call our boy a dobershark but he's a big love you messes up here and there.
