Training Collar Guide "A collar won't be any good unless you know how to use it" The first generation of shock collars didn't get much support because of some technical flaws that made people question its cruelty and unreliablity. For the benefits of many dog owners and trainers, we have listed in here a training collar guide to provide necessary infromation on proper operation and correct usage. |

With limitations from the first generation of electronic dog collar, manufacturers worked to refine their electronic training equipments with a variation of multiple stimulation level from the hand-held remote transmitter. The trainer can now select from one of the three main intensity level for a particular corrections: high, medium and low. The benefits of working with a remote training collar is the trainer can immediately send a signal to the dog`s unwanted or undesirable behavior at a distance far greater than leash training allows. Remote Training Collar Important Features It is very important to consider
these important features before buying a remote electronic training collar. · Multiple
Stimulation Levels
Remote hand-held transmitter
must have the flexibility to match the stimulation
level to your dog's temperament. Stimulation
intensity level must also be appropriate to
the size of your dog. Larger dogs need a high
stimulation to follow and obey your commands
while a small collar, your dog may not respond
from the radio frequency if the stimulation
is too weak. Most electronic training collar systems now clearly indicate what size of dog the
training collar is intended for.
There are 2 forms of stimulation available on the market today. First is the continuous stimulation, this method of correction delivers an electronic stimulation to the dog as long as the button is pressed from the hand-held remote transmitter. The second form is the momentary stimulation or sometimes called "nick". The dog will only receive a short electronic stimulation within seconds. Auto shutoff features are also available on some remote transmitter.
· Range
Generally speaking, the more range, the better. Effective range of an electronic collar can vary according to terrain, environmental and line of sight conditions. If you are training your dog in the field, it is recommended to have a long range training collar so the transmitter can still produce a reliable strong signal when if its needed. However, if you are only doing a basic yardwork obedience training, the 150 to 300 yard range is more than enough.
· Handheld
Transmitter Design
The transmitter should be small enough to carry in your pocket. Manufacturers make transmitters that small and lightweight. However, dog trainers have their own personal preferences but the main feature to be considered is the resistance. Some handheld transmitters are waterproof, water resistant, and rugged punishment tested.
· Integrated
Collar Design
Remote training collar should have intelligent engineering with internal antenna to avoid being caught up from the dog's body. And of course, waterproof collars are highly recommended if you intend to train your dog in our around the water.
· Manufacturer &
Retailers
Manufucturers that proven to be in the business with excellent product support. I recommend 2 of finest manufacturers (Innotek and Pet Safe). While Pet Street Mall, the fastest growing internet site with a variety of available pet products has been online since 2001 got my recommendation. Other notables are Innotek Direct, Mutt Mart, KCKaylas Pet Supplies and America Outdoor. |
