| i agree with judi on this one but i would like to add that an ecollar is a very good training tool when used correctly and also any kind of training session must end on a good note even if it your fault or due to outside stimulation(ecollar) or whatever you just cant let your dog lay down quit and then take him off the feild you must through play or smaller stimulas work through this on a good note with your dog completing the task that was ask of him this way he learns that even though he experianced unplessent stimulas he still came through with the task and got praised... by just pulling him off the feild when he layed down and quit because of the ecollar he will learn very quickly that if i go into avoidance momma will get me out of there......... go back to motivational training and re introduce the ecollar later with a good trainer timing is everything when using a e collar. i might add that while i know many great police handlers the few times that i have witnessed police training(not actually training) it was some of theworst sessions i have ever seen in dog training  |
