Remote collar FAQs

Remote collar FAQs

This is questions and concerns about the ecollar (remote collar) followed by a few facts.


My dog wont take food from my hand.

**Remote collar training does not require the use of food though sometimes it can come in handy.


Headhalters are more humane.

**The ecollar is a humane method of dog training when used as instructed. Headhalters can contort the dogs neck causing injury to muscles or bones as the dog struggles to get used to the nose loop or as an owner constantly tugs the dogs head back toward them as the dog pulls forward.


Petstore training is cheaper.

**Yes. It is. You get what you pay for. A qualified remote dog trainer will take your dog far beyond basic on leash training in the same time or less than the Big Petstore training programs.


You cant use a shock collar on a small dog.

**First, lets get away from calling the device a shock collar. Quality ecollars have a different feel than bark collars or invisible fence collars. It feels more like static and with the lower levels of stimulation on todays quality collars it is easy to tweak the feel so that the dog works on a level that is just perceivable to them. So, yes they are safe on small dogs as well as big dogs.


I dont want to stress my dog out.

**Any training program can cause a little stress during the learning stages. During this time your dog is receiving structure he may have never had to deal with before and learning self control. This takes a lot of concentration on his part and mental stress thats no different than a human child having to study their school work. It is also a good workout for the dog when other exercise is not available.


Ecollar training is for stubborn dogs, dogs with behavioral problems, or as a last resort for bad dogs.

**Totally false. Trainers today are using the ecollar as a training tool and not exclusively as a correction device. These methods work for any dog not just problem dogs.


An ecollar on a dog aggressive dog will only make the dog more aggressive.

**While two dogs are fighting or one dog is targeted onto another dogs presence is NOT the time to introduce a dog to the ecollar stim. With proper foundation training an aggressive dog can learn self control around other dogs with amazing results. Again, train, not correct, for lasting results.


Ive seen vibration training collars. Arent these a better alternative.

**Vibration collars dont have the advantage of multiple settings like ecollars do. And with the startle effect that the dog gets from the vibration puts it in the correction use category not the training category like the ecollar.
