How to Use an Electric Collar to Train a Dog to Come When called

Ойын-сауық

tythedogguy.com
Many dog owners struggle with various aspects of their dog's obedience. One of those biggest challenges is training a dog to come when called.
Coming when called can be a lifesaver, it can prevent the dog from running into the road, and it can help with other behaviors like bad door manners, chasing off after other dogs and more.
One of the most effective ways to train a dog to come when called is the use of an e-collar (sometimes called an electric collar or shock collar).
If it's used poorly it's not a good tool. If you use it properly, though, it can be the most humane way to train a great recall.
In this video I show the way that we introduce an e-collar to a dog and how to use that electric collar on a low level to teach the dog to happily return when called.
Happy Training!

    I've been doing some research into E-Collar training for my german shepherd pup and I like the way you put the e-collar into a term. It's a "language", or what I would prefer to say is "it's a line of communication". A method of communication to be able to get your dog's attention at a distance, no different than poking them on the shoulder and/or calling their name.

    They are wonderful - I have only used the shock twice, to stop my dog from running over to the neighbours dog.( down to 30) the buzz is the one i use to get her to listen to a command. Her behavior has improved beyond recognition. Had trouble with the connection -batteries; but all good now. .

    My dogs all come and I've never had to resort to a shock collar. If you can train this way, you can train using reinforcement without shock. The science works, but the choice whether to use discomfort or pleasure is up to the trainer.

    You are uninformed. We don't correct dogs using physical discomfort, but that doesn't mean there are no consequences. P- and R+ work just fine in concert. I prefer to align with the force free community, thanks. I think my dogs rather enjoy it, too. Also, part of proper recall training is accomplished via respondent learning, and a lot of trainers miss that part, which is why they fail and resort to force. I cannot imagine wanting a dog whose behavior is so globally suppressed.

    Hey I'm looking for something to train my dog so that he only roams around in our yard. He's pretty obedient for the most part but he's just like a child. As soon as you take your eyes off of him he starts exploring and not in a good way. He's about 15 years old and can't hold his bladder as we so we have to let him outside at all hours of the night. The thing is he's very small and his coat is all black. So there's no way you could see him unless he walks out in the street and even then it's hard to see because the street is black too. Any suggestions?

    We have a 2yo pit/boxer mix rescue. He was a stray at the shelter. He's extremely human friendly but has no training and some cat aggression. With the right behavioral training and an e-collar is it possible to get him to where we can at least get him to refocus on us instead of the cat? While we aren't assuming they will ever be best buds, it would be nice if they could at least coexist at some point.

But always call a command before you shock him or her,(30) the buzzer is usually the thing to use, they do get carried away with excitement.

    Dogs trained with shock collars and invisible fences may develop fear or aggression toward what they believe is the source of the shock (e.g., kids on their bikes, the mail carrier, the dog next door). Dogs have also been known to run through invisible barriers when frightened by fireworks or when chasing a squirrel and then to be too scared to cross back through the barrier to return home.
