If your dog is running rings around you and you are feeling like a fool
standing in the middle of a park calling ‘Come here boy’ to no avail, you may
need to consider a remote trainer. A remote trainer, otherwise called a remote
dog training collar, is a clever device that consists of a collar and a small
remote control that you can use from a distance. This device eliminates the need
to be right next to your dog to regain control.
The dog wears the remote trainer collar in the same way as it wears a normal
collar, you should remove the normal collar so there is nothing else to get in
the way. The collar includes in its design a small box with two electrodes that
have to be in conctact with your dog's skin. If your dog's hair is unusually
long, you might need to use your scissors to trim it a bit in order to make sure
that there's contact.
The remote control that comes with the collar will allow you to make the collar
give different levels of correction to the dog in the form of static shocks in
order to call its attention during training.
How To Commence Training
Training should commence as normal with the remote trainer. For example when
learning to sit, you may choose to reinforce the word ‘sit’ with a small static
shock, keeping your dog on his leash.
When you think your dog has understood the command or activity that you've been
teaching it, then it's time to try the remote without the leash. You have the
start with the lowest level of correction available, and increase it if your dog
doesn't obey or the stimulation is simply not enough for your dog to feel.
You can also teach your dog some safety rules with the aid of the remote
trainer, for instance, by stopping your dog with a correction if it tries to run
towards a street full of cars. It also makes walking with him a more pleasant
experience as you can say goodbye to endless shouting, and look forward to a
bouncing dog, tail wagging as he returns.
If your dog is not obeying your commands, it's time to get a remote trainer. This collar and remote control will let you train the most unruly dog. Perhaps the most important feature of the remote trainer is it's range of level corrections, which you can adapt to your dog's temperament.
