If your dog is running rings around you and you are feeling like a fool standing in the middle of a park calling ‘Come here boy’ to no avail, you may need to consider a remote trainer. A remote trainer, also know as a remote dog training collar, is an ingenious device that will allow you to train your dog with the use of a small remote control device. This simple idea allows you to train your dog from a distance, without the need to put it on a leash.
The dog has to wear the remote trainer collar when you want to train your dog; of course, you should also remove the normal collar, because otherwise it’d be uncomfortable. The collar contains a small box with two small electrodes that must make contact with your dogs skin, through his coat. On very long-haired breeds you may need to trim the hair to achieve this.
The remote control that comes with the collar will allow you to make the collar give different levels of correction to the dog in the form of static shocks in order to call its attention during training.
How to Start Training
Training your dog with the remote trainer starts just like any regular training, but with an added correction. For example when learning to sit, you may choose to reinforce the word ‘sit’ with a small static shock, keeping your dog on his leash.
Once you think he has got the hang of it you can try with the dog off leash, and this is where the remote trainer will come into play. You have the start with the lowest level of correction available, and increase it if your dog doesn’t obey or the stimulation is simply not enough for your dog to feel.
Remote trainers can also be used for proximity training when you need to ensure that your dog isn’t straying too far from you, and can be a vital aid in ensuring that he reliably returns when called. With time, you can forget about the leash completely when you take your dog out for a walk.
