USING THE REMOTE COLLAR: QUICK GUIDE
– Turn on both the transmitter and collar. To turn on the collar, tap the two red magnets together. To turn on the transmitter, hold down the “L” button on the back.
– Fit the collar properly on your dog. It should be snug and not move around.
– The black “S” button is the primary button you’ll be using for training.
– The red “S” button is designed for highly distracting situations.
 

 

OPTIMIZING YOUR DOG’S E-COLLAR WEARING FOR TRAINING SUCCESS
Proper e-collar wearing is critical to achieving your training goals with your dog. The amount of time and frequency of wearing the collar should be aligned with your objectives. If you aim to have a well-behaved pet at home, wearing the collar should be part of your dog’s daily routine. This way, you can immediately correct any potential behavior issues that arise.

The more your dog wears the collar now, the less likely they will need it in the future. Consistency is key, and having the collar on when you need to enforce a specific training goal will help you achieve this. However, it is important to note that a dog CANNOT wear the e-collar 24/7. Prolonged wearing can cause skin irritation and pressure sores due to the snug fit required for proper use.

On average, most dogs can wear the collar for 8-10 hours per day without experiencing any skin problems. It is crucial to check your dog’s neck before and after each use to ensure that the skin looks healthy and there is no inflammation developing. Wet skin can increase the likelihood of skin irritation, so it is best to remove the collar after swimming or when your dog is in wet conditions and let the skin dry thoroughly before putting it back on.

If you notice any signs of irritation or discomfort, immediately remove the collar to allow the skin to breathe. By properly adjusting the collar’s wearing to your training goals and ensuring your dog’s comfort and safety, you’ll be well on your way to achieving success with e-collar training.

 

 

MAXIMIZING YOUR DOG’S TRAINING: THE TOP 6 MISTAKES TO AVOID
Learning how to train your dog can be a challenging process, but it’s important to avoid common mistakes that can hinder your progress. Here are the six most common mistakes that dog owners make when training their dogs:
1. Failing to properly adjust the e-collar, which can make it too loose and ineffective.
2. Not adjusting the level or cadence of tapping when correcting with the e-collar, which can reduce its effectiveness.
3. Moving too quickly to heavily distracting environments after just one training lesson.
4. Failing to use the e-collar during walks or when people come over, missing opportunities to reinforce training.
5. Place Command: Neglecting to use a leash to guide the dog back to the “place” command.
6: Come Command: Not using body language to help the dog understand the “come” command, such as crouching down and clapping or running away from the dog.
By avoiding these common mistakes and working with a qualified dog trainer, you can effectively train your dog and achieve long-lasting results.
