Have you tried everything to get your dog to listen to you? We are not all specialized pet trainers, so we try what we think it can work, like using a firm voice for commands, treat reinforcement for good behavior, specialized training classes.
If you have tried various methods of training your dog to behave and he is still acting you aren't saying a word to him, don't despair.
We need to get well with our dogs, even if we don't speak each others' language.
Today all of us, pet trainers or owners, have the possibility to use a training device that had proven to be of effective help in training even the most stubborn dogs in the whole world.
We just need to ask for a Training Collar to specialized shops.
Looking similar to any other type of collar, the special electronic training device called training collar goes around the neck of the dog you want to train.
The difference is that you are given a remote control for the collar that typically has two functions.
First of all, there is a warning button on the remote control.
By pressing this button, you will send a signal to your dog's collar that will make the collar emit a warning beep telling the dog that it is performing in the wrong behavior.
The second is the shock button, working similarly with the warning button, but triggering the collar to deliver a startling shock to the dog which ignores both your command and the warning beep.
Called as the negative reinforcement, this training method uses different aversive stimuli.
Many people pretend to defend the rights of dogs saying these devices are inhumane to be used to train a dog, and in the same time they spray or smack the nose of their dogs when they do something wrong.
How humane the collar is completely depends on the user.
The device can be used in an inhumane way, by setting the intensity of the electric shock to full and then pressing the button over and over again without warning.
However, most pet owners that have used a training collar have found that they have only ever had to shock their pet two or three times before the warning beeps were enough to correct his or her behavior.
Even if they have not experienced the shocks during a specific bad behavior, the dogs will give up after two or three warning beeps.
Training the dog uses always the two methods, positive and negative reinforcement, so in addition to the warning beep you should reward somehow your dog every time he obeys the command you give him.
After a short training period your dog will listen your commands, avoiding this way many troubling situations.
He will listen to your commands and not run off chasing after whatever catches his eye.
The Training Collaris a better alternative than giving your dog up to a shelter when he may end up being put down.
The collars are in fact humane training methods.
The shocks don't hurt your dog a bit; they simply startle your dog.
You can always try the shock on yourself.
Thousands of dog owners used collars with satisfactory results.
