If your cute puppy grew to become a big animal that refuses to follow your orders, barks and growls at your guests, and makes constant noise at night and prevents you from sleeping, then you should consider getting a remote trainer. A remote trainer, otherwise called a remote dog training collar, is a clever device that consists of a collar and a small remote control that you can use from a distance. This simple idea allows you to train your dog from a distance, without the need to put it on a leash.
Make sure that you take off the dog’s regular collar before making it wear the remote trainer collar, in order to avoid both malfunctions and accidents. The collar includes in its design a small box with two electrodes that have to be in conctact with your dog’s skin. 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 Begin Training
Training should commence as normal with the remote trainer. For example when learning to sit, you may choose to reinforce the word ‘sit’ with a small static shock, keeping your dog on his leash.
When you think your dog has understood the command or activity that you’ve been teaching it, then it’s time to try the remote without the leash. Should the dog choose to disobey, you can increase the level of static while repeating the command until he obeys.
You can also teach your dog some safety rules with the aid of the remote trainer, for instance, by stopping your dog with a correction if it tries to run towards a street full of cars. It also makes walking with him a more pleasant experience as you can say goodbye to endless shouting, and look forward to a bouncing dog, tail wagging as he returns.
