Oh my God. 3 obedience lessons and the bozos are ready to use an e-collar? I'm not a huge believer in them, although I did use one on my Jagdterrier for dog aggression issues. It didn't work. Most importantly, the dog has to understand what it's supposed to do 1st. The analogy I like is...it's your very 1st lesson in learning to speak Russian. The teacher walks into the room and starts giving instructions...in Russian. You don't understand, so don't follow them. The teacher gives you a shock for disobeying. You have no idea what you did wrong...you did the right thing by getting your dog outta there.
