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, also know as a remote dog
training collar, is an ingenious device that will allow you to train your dog
with the use of a small remote control device. This simple idea allows you to
train your dog from a distance, without the need to put it on a leash.
The dog has to wear the remote trainer collar when you want to train your dog;
of course, you should also remove the normal collar, because otherwise it'd be
uncomfortable. The remote collar includes a small gadget with two outlets that
must be in contact with your dog's neck, right next to its throat. On very
long-haired breeds you may need to trim the hair to achieve this.
The remote trainer owner unit is a small remote control that enables you to send
different levels of static shock into the collar to reinforce commands should
the dog break concentration and stop obeying you.
How to Start Training
Training your dog with the remote trainer starts just like any regular training,
but with an added correction. For example, if you have taught your dog to
associate the action of sitting with the word "sit," you can correct it with a
small static shock with the collar whenever the dog doesn't obey the command
word.
Once you think he has got the hang of it you can try with the dog off leash, and
this is where the remote trainer will come into play. At first, the lowest level
of correction has to be used, however, since some dogs can't even feel it, you
might need to increase the level during the training.
Remote trainers can also be used for proximity training when you need to ensure
that your dog isn’t straying too far from you, and can be a vital aid in
ensuring that he reliably returns when called. With time, you can forget about
the leash completely when you take your dog out for a walk.
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.
