Every dog is different. You will see that breed and size has nothing to do with what level of stimulation a dog needs to work. In the chapter titled "Determining Your Dogs Work Level of Stimulation," you will watch us work with 15 dogs of different breeds and sizes. You can watch each of these dogs go through our protocol. That segment will convince you that every dog is different and the size of the dog has nothing to do with how it reacts to stimulation. There is an old wives tail that remote collar training is painful for our dog. That may have been the case many years ago, but today that is 100% not the case. We teach pet owners to use low-level stimulation that is not at all painful. We compare working stimulation levels to a tap on the dog's shoulder reminding him that it needs to pay attention and follow directions. The beauty of remote collars can be seen when our dog is put in a highly distracting environment, like a deer or cat that jumps and runs while out on a walk. With the remote, we have the ability to stop our dog from chasing. The methods we used to determine our dogs working levels of stimulation have changed. We have learned a lot about working levels over the past 11 years. We learned that when dogs are correctly introduced to the feeling of low-level stimulation they will respond to levels so low that we humans cannot even feel the stimulation.

DESCRIPTION

The purpose of a remote collar is not to punish a dog for not minding, but rather to redirect a dog from a distraction and get it to comply with what we are asking it to do with the least amount of force possible.

I purchased my first remote collar in 1978 and produced the first version of this course as a DVD in 2008. Quite frankly, the information in this new DVD (which was produced in 2019) is light years ahead of what I put into that DVD 11 years ago.

Training dogs with remote collars is one of the most misunderstood dog training tools ever invented. This DVD is going to simplify the training program for remote collars. It will also demystify old wives tails concerning "electric collar training".

We show new trainers that remote collars do not have to hurt our dogs. We also help trainers understand exactly when and how they should add collar training to their obedience program. Doing this correctly solves so many behavioral problems people have when they don't use remote collars the right way.

We cover how to select the right collar for you and your dog. Our feeling is that remote collars should be very easy to learn and simple to operate. Too many collars today have bells and whistles that only complicate their operation.

In a step-by-step manner, we cover when and how to introduce a dog to the feeling of low-level stimulation. When this is done correctly, our dogs do not get stressed. They also learn that stimulation does not hurt.

Once the dog has been introduced to what stimulation feels like, we have a protocol that determines the dog's working level of stimulation. Every dog is different. You will see that breed and size has nothing to do with what level of stimulation a dog needs to work.

This is a great introduction to this topic. I agree with others that there was a bunch of unnecessary repetition at the beginning. I really wish I'd had this information years ago, when I bought one of those 10-level resolution e-collars to try to work out bad behaviors when the positive-only training failed. I admit I didn't think to seek out videos about it. At the time there may not have been many, or good ones. Read the manual and it explained how to use it to teach sit, stay, and come, no mention of pairing it with leash pressure, and as an aversive tool for unwanted behaviors. I tried it once and never used it again. Interestingly, there used to be a device they called "throw rings," concentric steel rings or other shapes which you'd throw at the dog to startle it when it landed on the ground near them and jangled. Sort of like the concept of the e-collar to "tap the dog on the shoulder." The throw rings were recommended by the positive-only trainer, but the e-collar wasn't. There was no recommendation for what you'd do when the dog took off after a squirrel...

I don't think this video is up to the standard I've come to expect from Leerburg. In 4 hours and 40 minutes, I found that there was only about 2 hours of real top-notch Leerburg content - you've set a high standard and this time I was disappointed.

1) much of the audio commentary was repetitive - not just for emphasis or summary - but really the same thing over and over 4-5 times.
2) there was very little noteworthy in the first few sections. I don't buy Leerburg streams for the same standard stuff in the directions or on free YouTube videos.
3) It felt like there was an hour of testing the collar on the office staff. After the 3rd time, there was nothing new - would have been a perfect time to summarize and move on.
4) In the section on setting the working level, it was very difficult for the untrained eye to see the dogs' reactions - in fact, there were several times when it seemed like the dog was reacting to a background noise or another dog. This section was trying to make a major point, and it didn't come across in a way that I could confidently repeat on my own.
5) The last section - Aggressive and Reactive Dogs - was completely misleading. The content was basically "don't try this on aggressive or reactive dogs" - not what anyone would have expected from the subtitle.

I really like your stuff - but this one completely missed the mark for me. Hope this feedback is useful and results in a better product next time around.

This video is fairly basic, not very advanced at all. I am not happy and looking for more in dept tips and tricks!

ADMIN: This video is aimed at pet owners new to remote collar training, as noted in the title and description.

I just briefly want to share my video with you on our success story with my five-year-old husky Mika. I’ve had a lot of dogs and I’ve done a lot of training over the years including having German shorthairs who had what we called shock collars 25 years ago. My husky and I hike very frequently and I’ve had her off leash most of her life. I’ve read huskies should not be off leash, so I worked very hard with her to get her to be off leash,. She does very well running through the forest with me but she’s also very smart and very stubborn. When it’s time to put her back on the leash, after about a 3 mile hike, it’s very hard sometimes to get her back. She will walk 20 feet in front of me or next to me. She won’t runoff she just does not want me to put her on the leash. Over the last six months the trails have gotten a little busier and I do run into other people more. I do want her to come back to me when I ask her to on my terms. I watched your videos and I followed your instructions. I wanted to share my results with you with this video. Thank you so much. We are so pleased with the results. I am also amazed that her working level was an eight in the beginning when I worked with her on the leash in my driveway, and now all I need to do is use the vibrate setting.

Thank You
Sandie and Mika

really a newbie course, no deep training. I hope M.Ellis course will provide advanced methods.

ADMIN: This is a course for beginners who want to introduce the ecollar to pet dogs.
