Training Collars Dogs
Training collars for dogs are commonly used to address a variety of persistent and unwanted behaviours in family dogs, such as excessive barking and over-excitement. These collars are used as a deterrent to negative behaviour. When your dog is doing something you don't want them to do (jumping on people) or not doing something that they should be doing (not coming when called), they get nudged back into line with a brief static shock delivered through contact points in the collar around their neck. This nudge doesn't hurt the dog, but it does grab their attention. They learn through repetition that when they do something wrong, they get this sensation. They also understand that when the sensation disappears, they are back on track. This is how these collars teach dogs without causing any discomfort to them.
Are training collars good for dogs?
A small jolt from a static shock collar just catches your dog's attention and prevents them from engaging in certain unwanted behaviours. Since the corrective technique used by training collars for dogs is harmless, they are ideal for dogs that are difficult to train or do not respond well to verbal commands. You may need this collar when taking a stubborn dog out in public, when travelling, or whenever they become unruly.
Our range of remote training collars at eDog Australia allows you to train your dog from a distance, with the training collar's bark feature activating automatically when your dog barks, but also comes with the option to activate manually if preferred.
Most shock collars include multiple levels of enforcement and stimulation, allowing you to fine-tune the level to address the undesirable conduct appropriately. Before delivering an actual small jolt to your dog, many shock collars, for example, will emit a warning beep or vibration.
You can give a vocal order by using the warning buzzer or vibration ("No!" or "Down!") to further stop the unwanted action. Static shock collar training should be done in stages, beginning with the lowest level of enforcement and gradually increasing if necessary.
Remember that wearing a shock collar does not suggest that you are a bad pet parent or that you are somehow hurting your dog. Your relationship with your dog is unlikely to be harmed by an electronic training collar. In fact, collaboration with your dog can actually help you to build closer bonds.
When should I start training my dog with a collar?
If you're wondering when to start training with a dog electric collar, know that there are no universal age standards. It all relies on the dog's health and maturity. In some cases, puppies are ready to begin training around 14 to 15 weeks, while others should wait until they are around six months of age. It depends on their ability to focus on training.
So now you know when to start e-collar conditioning and at what age, but there's a lot more to it. You must also follow the proper training technique to ensure that your dog remains attentive and that you get the most out of your e-collar. If your dog is taught well, you can leave them unattended for short periods.
Collar conditioning is when you show your dog what you desire. It teaches dogs what is expected of them in different environments, with people, other dogs, when left alone at home, in public places such as an office or store, and unfamiliar environments like visiting family members or friends. Correct your dog only if they deliberately disobey after receiving verbal instructions. You must give your dog another chance to correct any mistakes they make before putting the training collar on.
