I actually clicked on the video because even though I am a competent, confident, highly skilled professional dog trainer, I am also forever a student and wanted to see what you have to offer. I've never seen your videos before ;-)

I personally condition using the lowest perceptible setting and release the pressure as soon as they commit to the recall. But, I definitely picked up some interesting points that I might try and absolutely see the value of what you're doing. I also say this knowing absolutely nothing about the breed you're demoing this with. Good stuff. Keep up the great work my friend.

We've been following your videos since we got our GSP at 8 weeks. He's 6 months now and such a great well behaved dog! Thank you so much!

I was always so against these but after trying a collar like this it’s so amazing. Now he is to the point to where the vibrate will snap him out of just about anything and it’s like a reset button where he just looks at me for what to do next.

Best video on this topic i've seen. 👍🏻

All E-Collars come with a training video. The problem is they never use them. And of course the collar is to blame when things go south.

Thank you very much, that was fantastic I learnt so much and I I have not got My little pointer yet I get him on the 10th of April

Years back I saw a person misusing a training collar on his dog. The person was teaching their dog the command come which all circumstances should be positively reinforced but when used with negative reinforcement what should be a joyous event becomes a huge negative event. I honestly felt like taking the training collar off his dog, put it around the owners neck turn the setting up to maximum and demand that they do "Rutabaga" and shock them when they didn't do "Rutabaga" without explaining what I meant by "Rutabaga".

Many years ago when I was training our German Longhair Pointer with a number of experienced trainers, she would stop listening to me in the field and would ignore the command 'Come' a command that she knew very well. They put the training collar on her on the lowest possible setting and when she ignored me she got shocked and at which point she came running towards me; it was such an unpleasant event that she never ignored me in the field. She went on to earn one Field Title and one Field Championship, she together with our one year older Vizsla made a fantastic hunting combination if there were any upland game birds in the field that we were hunting together they would find the birds. It was then up to the hunters to do their jobs and shoot the birds once they had been flushed.

Love your training videos! Thank you for making them!

This is amazing especially since I have a GSP mix! She ran away yesterday, chased her through 3 neighborhoods. I think I will be getting an ecollar, she's a year old, 0 recall. Professional will be last resort since they are very expensive! Thank you for this video since I've been question whether or not to get an ecollar and it's purely for recall and her reactiveness (she gets Overexcited, has dragged, clawed, and bit me to get to other dogs)

Looks like a little fire 🔥 going on in the background. Then they got some water 💧 on it.

You did a great job showing us how to correctly use the e-collar. Unfortunately, my dog had a terrible experience. I did it as close to the way you did it and it did not go well. I used the vibration and she went crazy. I made sure to keep the vibration going until I went over to her and then I turned it off. I tried to just use the sound and she went just as crazy. Any advice?

I hade a German shorthaired pointer and he learned so quick

[pkersoul]

What if your dog starts freaking out with vib or stimulation on and doesn't hear or follow ANY commands

[saraceni]

My dog is 6 mos an is a mix of 33%Pyrenees, 15, aussie shepard, 13 pit bull terrier, 12 beagle, 7 German shepard, I'm scared, but he is a smart dog, , he's on a cord, he got loose once, stayed in yard an ran back an forth, caught him with a treat

[cinaralcinar]

I am conditioned myself how to use the e-collar by watching this video : )

[stevenlengyel]

We had a shock color on our Borden setter, but we think he got it wet and it no longer works, he’s very strong willed, he’s a great boy, but the only thing we can get him to do is sit

[jonroth]

Thanks. Very helpful. I have been wondering about using the vibrate function. I am wondering about the pros and cons of keeping the vibrate/stim on until my dog gets to me. I am hesitant to make her bare the discomfort for that long; If I train my dog, turning off the vibrate right when she turns to come to me, do you think it is possible later to train by turning off the vibrate as you did - when she gets to me?

[AdamTime]

Owned Walkers and American foxhounds my whole life, never had an issue with recall. They like to wonder a bit, but never an issue with recall. Had them distance mile out from me in the country chasing deer, they always come back asap when called.
My dogs have never had an e collar. The thought of being paranoid of a shock is crazy. Same as beating them.

[spencerpurves]

I'm trying to find an e-collar that has constant vibration as it seems like that is the approach used here. Most seem to limit vibration to either short bursts or 8 seconds max (Garmin Sport Pro). What have you all been using?

[heximancer]

If only I could get my parakeet food motivated.
