ADVANCED E-COLLAR TRAINING VS FIRST SESSION! MY TWO BELGIAN MALINOIS! NOT WHAT YOU THINK!!

THIS IS NOT A "SHOCK" COLLAR! In this video, I show how I WORK my advanced 6 year old Belgian Malinois on the e-collar/ remote collar, VS the very first e-collar/ remote collar session with my 10 month old Belgian Malinois puppy. This will allow viewers to see session number one vs a final product of proper e-collar/ remote collar training! A very common question for the training method you will see is 'why?' "The dog doesn't need that" "The dog can do it without that." I understand these questions and the simple answer is, he doesn't need it. But by teaching how pressure can activate a behavior, then turn off when it is achieved, is part of a much larger training system. For example, I could say you don't need weights/ resistance bands, etc to train yourself. You can get a good workout using only body weight exercises so you don't need that. Why put additional pressure on yourself? BECAUSE they are tools that when used correctly can benefit you even more! An Ecollar is like any other tool; you can hit yourself in the head with a hammer, or build a house with it, doesn't mean hammers are bad. No dogs were 'shocked' in this video. A certain amount of pressure was applied at specific time in order to ADD to the dog's performance.
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND paying a credible dog training professional (won't be cheap) to either train or step by step help you train your dog on this device. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A QUICK FIX TO GET YOUR UNTRAINED DOG TO STOP DOING SOMETHING, THE ECOLLAR IS NOT FOR YOU!! This tool is not user friendly and is one of the easiest tools to misuse.
While the techniques in this video are being showed on working dogs, they can absolutely be applied to any breed as well as pet dogs!
Please feel free to comment and/ or leave questions! I will answer/ respond to ALL of them. If you comment something crazy YouTube will take it down and I won't even see it, so let's keep it clean!! :)

I’d recommend to anyone using this specific collar to go with the biothane buckle collar with the bungee and quick disconnect. It’ll keep the collar snug but also allow for slight changes in your dog’s neck size when they get hot or exert themselves. The quick disconnect makes it easier to have it adjusted the same each time you put it on. I was concerned it may come undone before I purchased and used it. But after using for sometime now I’ve never had an issue.

that is quite different for what i thought was the common practice.

thank you for sharing those videos.
i will watch all your videos.

My trainer taught us to use it as a communication tool first vice a correction. I can see your method is all about communication vice correction. So many anti-aversive folks need to see what a happy dog ecollar trained looks like. "Studies show that aversives induce stress and make the dog work through fear. Using positive reinforcement makes the dog much happier and trains faster." Meanwhile here is a dog that's eager to work and learn because he understands the communication. Seriously, aversives are not abusive unless you make it abusive.

My 2 year old Belgian malinios is going to advanced off leash training/ e collar training with it and I’m glad I saw this. Gives me a great insight

[newera]

You don't have an idea how much you helped me with that under 10 min video. I'm so glad I smashed that Subscribe button yesterday.

The last time I watched this video, I was new to Patreon and studying your techniques with Freddy.
Today, less than a year later, I am rewatching this video and studying your techniques with Jasper!

1.5 yr German Shepherd—the progress is unreal🙌🏼

Thank for sharing this. It is different than I've used the e collar, but have heard people doing it. Until now, this method didn't fully make sense! I'm going to integrate this into my training today!

[dakaruhipaialamare]

Intro is as amazing as the whole video helping me in many ways thanks brother

[LawEnforcementTodaycom]

Andy, for those who have never used an E-collar, can you go over this one more time in more detail for us who are not comfortable introducing it to our 4 legged buddy?

[joeyprince]

You have such a very different training methods and I think they are awesome. I would love to know who you did your apprenticeship under whoever this person was they did a great job. I really like your videos and I’m probably going to say this in a lot of comments on a lot of different videos but your energy rocks!

[leegrass]

You’re charging the e collar the same as charging the mark. Brilliant idea!

Ok, so an e-collar only comes with a vibration mode? So instead of using a clicker or a whistle that makes a sound you can use an e-collar that vibrates? Is that it and nothing else? I wonder why it's not call a vibration collar or a v-collar then?
Looking forward hearing your answer... Thanks!

[petemiranda]

How were you able to get the sound in the speaker??? Would it work on a sport dog e collar?

[TheName]

I hope I understand it right, please correct me if I'm wrong: You give a command and up until the command is completely done, you keep giving the stim. This should motivate the dog obey the command faster. Is that right?
My other question: If you don't use the ecollar as positive punishment, can you use this training you described but also at some point use the stim as positive punishment? Or you don't use the ecollar as positive punishment at all?

[arye.dogman]

Hey Andy. I wonder...how do know the puppy feels the e-collar threw all this excitement? thanks

[Catabolicmuscle]

Can u make a vid on how to use for offleash recall if in a public park ?
For example take Freddy to a public park?

[MayaBlevins]

Watching Freddy after Jasper really shows how incredible Jasper is (and how great Freddy will be!)

[mikechurcher]

What were you doing with the food dish and the e-collar? Was that part of the conditioning step? So if your dog knows the command to get on and off the place, what purpose does the e-collar have?

[briggsan]

How do you find the lowest perceived working level when introducing the ecollar stim to a young dog? I noticed your advanced dog did a couple minor head jerks from the stim—is that ok to see at working levels or??? I have some ecollar and prong experience, but I liked the way you do the intro with the food bowl! Gonna try that on my pointer pup when he’s old enough!

i really wanted to know where you bought this can you plz give me a link to it
