@SuburbanK9DogTraining20 сағат бұрын
A small (2.25) will be around 13 inches in total length. A medium (3.0 or 3.2) will be around 18-21 inches. A large (4.0) will be around 24 inches. It will vary based upon how many links you added or removed over the years.

Walking mine is a nightmare. They’re not trained to heel, they zigzag across each other and when holding in one hand one will stop and the other carries on. They’re chihuahuas so I’ve always been told they can’t have collar/lead because of their necks. I’m planning on having a baby next year and I’ve no idea how I’m going to walk them with a stroller 🤦

Will this work on wolf dogs? Me and my brother both own wolf dogs of the same litter and they aggressively fight each other all the time they both are 10 weeks old and one keeps trying to yank the others ear making the other cry

This will work with wolf hybrids and is even more important than it is with the average breed. They tend to have trust issues with new people as they grow and two littermates could easily become dangerous if not trained and socialized properly.

Weren't you disappointed when you realised it didn't even have the functions that a 10 year old EZ Educator 900 has? I was going to upgrade my 280c, the 280x looks great and has boost, lock and tone, all useful. But I thought I might as well look around if I was going to buy a new handset. The 280x is just a minor upgrade, no programmable buttons, no computer connection, no different modes for the different stimulations. It's like this was designed 10 years ago then sat on the shelf til they came up with a nice modern looking case. Really struggling to see why I would buy this over the same priced EZ 900.
@SuburbanK9DogTraining3 күн бұрын
The main reason we prefer Dogtra collars is that they are reliable and simple to use. Our average client prefers a very simple collar that they know will work when they need it to. The only feature I wish the 280x had would be the ability to have a different preset level for each dog. Hopefully they add that feature in the future!
@Graeme7583 күн бұрын
@SuburbanK9DogTraining I'm not seeing any more reliability issues with the various Educators than I see with Dogtra. As for simplicity even the top of the range, which has way more than 99% of us will ever need, is no more complicated than a smart phone or watch.

What about before biting? What about when growling increases in frequency and intensity towards a child? When is the time to say… it’s too risky? Bearing in mind this is a 50kg 3.5 yo male German shepherd who is more frequently attacking our female dog… reacts to everything like cars, tractors, other dogs, other humans and has also started growling at us, the ‘masters’ when we ask him to leave the house each time he growls at our child? And yes, we’ve had several trainers in and have bent over backwards to adapt to his needs.
@SuburbanK9DogTraining3 күн бұрын
Sounds like a tough situation due to the child in the house. What training method have you followed with him? We often see people led astray by being told to fix all aggression issues with purely positive reinforcement and that rarely if ever works with actual aggression issues.

Honestly, this doesn’t look great. I’m not convinced about the whole ‘no food’ approach-this dog comes across as both unreliable and slow, both slow to turn and also make his way back. But hey, each to their own if you like it that way….. I get that he’s not finished… but your just doing more of the same with no noticeable improvement….
@SuburbanK9DogTraining5 күн бұрын
This dog is early to the training process. We don't expect major improvement in 10 minutes. That is unfair to the animal. We have a lot of videos showing dogs that are fully trained and listen perfectly and this is a video showing how to get them to that point. Regarding treats, that is a hot topic in dog training. We train a lot of dogs with treats and a lot with solely praise. It depends mainly on the dog's personality. Thanks for sparking a conversation!

Quick question about socialization: Do you think over-socializing can become problematic? For example, I’m concerned that if my pup interacts with almost everyone who approaches, he might become leash reactive. Do you think limiting interactions with strangers, especially while on a leash, could be helpful?
@SuburbanK9DogTraining5 күн бұрын
Great question! Over socialization will not lead to leash reactivity, but it can lead to some annoying habits. If a dog is allowed to be petted by every person they see (or say hi to each dog they see) they can develop the habit of pulling towards everyone and everything. We socialize our dogs and let them say hi to lots of people and dogs, but also practice heeling past some people and dogs without saying hi.

Bud I’ve got a 45kg female cane corso who I’ve had since the 2nd of December 2024, as of the 1st of December 2024 her previous owner passed away and he lived in a 2nd floor block of apartments in the USA in the UK flats and the only time she went out was to the area around the communal entrance for toileting and then back inside her small home. She hasn’t ever been socialised outdoors never had any vaccinations never had her paws cut she was in a terrible state when I had her but now I’m able to walk her but she’s very nervous, anxious of the outdoors so I get to walk her around 4.30 am . She has never eaten so well and now I’ve got her in to our local vets and have had to hire a dog walker

Was very keen to upgrade my 280c, the tone and light would be useful, and so would all the new features that competitors have had for years, even though some of their handsets look like kids toys. Then I looked at the specs on the 280X. Essentially it only added a light and a tone. Really not worth the upgrade and a huge disappointment. Not even assignable buttons, the light only strobes and doesn't stay on, not even caught up with 10 year old models from other manufacturers. Does look good though, very clean and modern. These may be more reliable than the Educator range, Dogtra made and assembled in Korea, Educator assembled in US which probably doesn't help, but I don't see any wave of complaints about either make. In 2025 I would have expected computer/phone connectivity, an app for easily changing handset parameters, user assignable buttons with different patterns for each stim type, and updatable firmware to add new features. Surely we have moved past basic models like this.

I was out running and two pit bulls escaped from a hole in their fence and came charging after me. It was in a semi-rural residential area with big lots so not anywhere to go. I took off my running jacket and wrapped it around my forearm (like that would help). Anyway, I figured I was done for so I stopped and faced them and yelled at them to stop. I said NO! And Go Home! They were confused and eventually I was able to walk away from them. I was staying with a friend at the time, and from that day in, I used his treadmill for my daily run!

You could done this all on vibrate. Vibrate is for refocus during training. Shock is for when they are out of control. Like running loose near a road or going Bat Shit Crazy reactivity. My 2 working line Malinois were traineed with the same collar by an X military trainer. Maybe zapped them 3 times in 4 months. Same age as this dog, keep zapping and the dog will shut down. Also that dog will soon figure out you're the one zapping them. So you are building mistrust. This is how my goofy neighbor trained his dog. That Dog was in constant anxiety on walks and became completely reactive because he didn't trust his owner. We could see him trembling in fear on walks.
@SuburbanK9DogTraining9 күн бұрын
Agreed that using an e collar on a high level can build mistrust with a dog. Also agreed that it can cause anxiety. That being said, that’s not what we are doing here. Notice how long it took for the dog to even feel the collar. Low stim levels feel nothing like the high stim levels. For many dogs, the vibration is actually more aversive than a low stim level. Agreed that we could have done this on vibrate with this particular dog, but we use vibration differently. It isn’t a threat and it isn’t a correction. We acclimate the dog to vibration with treats and cause the vibration to equated with the word “come” Thanks for starting a conversation! We have a few videos explaining our method in detail if you are interested.

For a Doberman with a prey drive I would use a long line or an e collar while training to ensure you can control him. Have you tried either of them? We have a few e collar videos that show how to start with the vibration as a pager and then add stim as a correction if needed.
