Is not to use the E Collar.
Sounds a bit backwards doesnโt it.
But if youโre having to press the button every 5 minutes, every walk, every distraction, then the dog hasnโt really learnt anything.
The E Collar shouldnโt be doing the training for you. Itโs simply a way of communicating with your dog at distance and reinforcing things they already understand.
The aim is always to build reliability so that the collar becomes less and less relevant.
Eventually it just becomes insurance.
Because no matter how well trained a dog is, theyโre still a dog. They can get things wrong. They can make bad decisions. They can get caught up in instinct.
Maybe a deer pops out. Maybe a rabbit bolts across a field. Maybe something happens that youโve never come across before.
If your dog suddenly decides chasing that deer is the best idea theyโve ever had and heads straight towards a main road, itโs nice knowing youโve got a way of getting through to them before it turns into a disaster.
The best E Collar trained dogs arenโt the dogs constantly being corrected.
Theyโre the dogs that know exactly whatโs expected of them and rarely need it at all.
