When you feel your dog understands the obedience commands on the 

leash we can now start with the electric collar training. With the dog 

on the leash wearing the electric collar continue with your obedience

as a command is given; the stimulation is removed as the dog complies. 

Through repetition, a dog learns to turn off the light stimulation by 

performing the command. E-collar training is another form of negative 

reinforcement, similar to the leash and standard collar training. When the 

dog complies with the command, we use praise/positive reinforcement.

avoid the stimulation altogether by performing your commands. When 

these training procedures are complete, the electric collar is used as a 

reminder when the dog does not comply with your commands at home 

or in the field. Keep your initial training sessions short and positive. 

Dogs have a short attention span, especially young dogs.

Always start with low levels of stimulation and work your way up 

depending on the disposition of your dog and any given situation. By 

using only enough stimulation to get your point across, you will have 

a more controllable environment and a dog that is under less stress. 

Animals (and humans) perform better in a less stressful environment.
