Are you ready to begin training your family puppy? You may want to consider the use of an electronic collar, such as the Tri Tronics G2 for example. There are many methods to teach your dog and this technique can prove quick and effective when utilized properly. Whether you are concerned about eliminating negative behaviors such as jumping up and barking or you want to teach your dog commands, like how to heel, sit and stay, this remote method of dog training can lead your dog to obedience in no time.
The following are some ideas for effective remote dog collar training:
1. Follow the same step-by-step process each instance that you teach your dog a new command. If your dog already knows a command he can often be a bit confused when it is used along with the collar, so developing a good method from the get go can help to alleviate| that potential confusion.
2. Break the training down into smaller tasks and keep them shorter. Dogs have little attention spans and they learn easiest when they are taught new behaviours in smaller steps.
3. Be consistent in your process of training and the actions that you expect from your dog.
4. Keep your focus on teaching your dog one command or action at a time. He will not be able to make the connections between the collar and the command if you are too scattered with your training process.
5. If your dog performs the command correctly, be sure to let him know by using praise.
6. If your puppy seems confused by a order, simplify it so that he can know success. You want these training sessions to be a great experience for both you and your beloved pet.
7. Do not have the Tri Tronics Upland G2 (or any collar for that matter) set at a level of intensity that is too high when you first begin training. You will need to carefully test your animal’s sensitivity to the remote collar and you should begin with it on the lowest setting.
8. Ideally you will want the beginning phase to take place in an area with as little distractions as possible. He will not be able to concentrate and learn easily if there is too much happening around him.
9. To teach your dog reliability, you will want to add in some training around distractions at a later time as this really more closely mimics real life events.
10. You will want to add those distractions gradually though as opposed to too much all at once and be sure that they are not the type of distractions that will scare your dog as this can definitely work against the training.
11. When you are training in the area of the distractions, it will most likely be necessary to set the collar at a higher intensity level to get the results you are going for.
12. Your dog learns by repetition so you will want to repeat the commands often especially at the beginning of the training process.
After your dog has a few great command successes, be sure to include play time as a part of your training time together. Always try to keep in mind that you want this time to be fun for both you and your dog. The Tri Tronics Upland G2 EXP is a method that takes your dog’s obedience skills to a whole new level. The method of remote dog training can be fast, fun and easy to implement.
