Greetings! Been having great success with my 1100 NC. However; I do have a question and was wondering if anyone had a pointer or two.
How does one go from the e-collar/leash combination to just the e-collar?
Any info would be appreciated.
Happy Holidays!

Once again, Lou will have good advice for you, but here's my two cents:
The way *I* did it with my foster dog was the same as if I were transitioning between on and off leash work. Use two leashes and let the dog simply drag one of them for a few days while you work with him. This will get him used to dragging a leash. Then, when he's working the same way he was for you before you started letting him drag a leash, unhook the leash you've still been holding (be a bit sneaky - start out the same as always, and go through a couple of commands as usual. Then, as you praise him by petting or rubbing his neck or whatever, quickly unhook the leash - if done correctly, he'll have no idea you did it) and work with him for a few minutes without holding a leash. He's still dragging the other one so you can grab hold of it if he tries to run off or if you need to use it for guidance, but this is the way I do it. Eventually you won't need to let him drag a leash, and he'll simply be on the e-collar.
