We got a vibrating collar online. Our dog will be focused on everything around them, but make their collar buzz and they snap out of it and look for us to see what we want. It has the shock feature too, but we don't need it. The buzz works fine.

Yep, my dogs have gotten to the point where they don't need the collar anymore. They still wear it when we go out late at night and I can't see if there's a bear/deer/fox on the property. They only get the shock if they ignore the beep and the vibration, and only if they are running off the property. Had one issue with my bigger, more aggressive dog running off and got the collars and now he only tries to run off chasing animals, but is smart enough to stop at the treeline.
