Tips for using dog training equipment

At dogtrainingstore.com we specialize in electronic dog training collars and tons of other dog supplies.

We’re as passionate about dogs and dog training as you are. We take dog training seriously.

electronic dog training collar are used for problem solving (such as jumping on people, chasing cars, stealing food, avoiding snakes) or for more general training (such as obedience training or hunting dog training). Aggressive behavior is NOT a suitable candidate for electronic collars under any circumstances without a behavior specialist supervising the activity.

Many people think of a “shock collar” as a last resort, designed to punish a dog when he performs poorly. However, used properly, a electronic dog training collar can be a boon in ANY training situation.

It is used to communicate, not punish. It can give a dog confidence and give you peace of mind.

Remote Dog Training should be accomplished at the lowest stimulation level that gets an attention

response without causing fear or yipping pain. Your dog should look up at you when he feels the stimulation.

His neck muscle might give a small twitch, but no vocalization, lowered ear set, cowering or otherwise showing fear should be apparent.

When you see that the collar gets his attention, start your work. If you have a collar with a vibration mode, start by asking him to do somethng he does well. When he succeseds, push the light vibrations or praise tone button and give hima treat or stroke on his head.
