When it comes to e collars there is a huge misconception that that tool is what makes the dog do things. “The dog won’t recall unless it feels stim” “The dogs only holding command because it’s afraid of getting shocked” “You didn’t get to the root of the issue” All BS fear mongering keeping dogs and their owners stuck. Yet for some weird reason, dogs are fully trained with positive reinforcement before we even begin their e collar training, so how could the collar be what’s “training” them? All

Sorry to disappoint but a lot of e collar training is actually quite “boring” repetitive reps 🙃 In this video from our most recent New Jersey seminar, Joelle is teaching a dog the concept of escape conditioning.
