For those of you who scoff at e-collar users and say to "actually train your dog" and use 100% positive reinforcement, I would encourage you to open your mind a little bit. I love my dog to PIECES. He is a husky German shepherd mix, seven months old, and quite well trained. We work on training every day. I have plenty of time to devote to him. I live in a rural area and every day we go for long walks through the forest. He has little interest in toys and does not enjoy fetch for longer than a few minutes, so long, off leash walks are one of the only way to get out his boundless energy. He stays right with me and has about 95% recall. Can we get to 100%? I believe we will, but the fact is, that kind of training takes years of consistency to achieve, and in the meantime, I want my pup to be free to explore the woods and get the kind of mental and physical stimulation he needs. I bought him an ecollar for emergency recall situations. I use the collar on vibrate ONLY when he is extremely distracted (by a deer, for instance) and gets that one-track husky mind that seems to filter out all sound. Even if I have a juicy steak, no treat will outweigh the pure joy of chasing a deer. The few times I have had to shock him -- I would not even call it a shock, it is a low stimulation, I have shocked myself with it so I know what he's experiencing -- were enough to regain his attention. What is abuse? My tired, happy dog, who comes home muddy at the end of the day, who (maybe) received a light shock for a moment, but immediately forgot about it, and furthermore is EAGER to put on the e collar because it means he is going out for a hike, or my friend's dog, who sits in a small fenced-in space outside all day and has never gotten to run free in his life because my friend is too scared he won't come back? What about a few other commentors, who pointed out that a mild shock to warn the dog that cars are dangerous is far better than having them find out the hard way? Even if you don't let your dog off leash, there is always the possibility they will escape, and having never been off leash before, it is unlikely they will know how to behave, and instead will head straight to the road...

I'm considering getting a collar for my 6 month mastiff puppy. I'm not bothered about stuff like barking, but I am concerned that she has always had a habit of picking up stones, and now she has begun to swallow them. I cannot always see if she is picking up a stone, and she could end up with an intestinal blockage. I need to prevent this behaviour now, and the only thing I can think of is creating a 'stone aversion' with a collar. Like you said, there are some situations where the alternative behaviour is much worse than the aversion training.

I have yet to have any problems and my dog gets so excited when I grab it. She'll be 4 in april and has only recently started using the collar.

If you knew what you were doing, and kept the dog sub-threshold, that would not have happened. You should know that you *never* work a dog beyond the level that a behavior has been proofed and you never practice recall without a long line. So many punishment based trainers simply don't understand how to really do sub-threshold work, then they fail, they fail the dogs, they fail the clients, then pull out the shock collars because they aren't good enough and simply need more humane training. Instead of acknowledging their own error and fault as a trainer, they blame the dog.

For everyone out there wanting to get a dog just because "I like the idea of having a pet" just don't do it. A dog is a loving animal that needs constant structure and discipline. The best way to put it is that if you want a well behave/trained dog you have to be a parent/leader/guidance to them. Being a parent is not something you can do only 2 hours a day... is a 24/7 responsibility that needs a lot of planning ahead. Dogs are also not cats... I always encounter a lot of people wanting a dog just because they did well with a cat. It's funny how most cats already come with a chip in their brain programmed with the latest update to be independent. Dogs on the other hand have nothing preinstalled and sometimes you have to rebuild their behaviors into good ones... they need to slowly learn your ways and you need to literally teach them what things are good and ok and what is not just like you would do with your child as he grows with you.

As a dog trainer , I have to chime in and say his feeling at 15 then going up to 35 is NOT a good representation of how it should be demonstrated. You need to note that you want to increase one number at a time to get result . People might get the perception that we train like that. Ultimately if your dog feels it on 4 there's never a need to just jack the number to 24 or even 14. That many numbers difference can destroy good training if done at the wrong time in the wrong environment with no extra stimulus in the environment. To the person who suggested seeking a trainer ....

I own a American pitbull terrier and an E-collar. We've only had to use the tone and vibration. It's solely a mode for communication as she is young and easily distracted. When she is off leash and goes too far, we use the tone. When she doesn't come the 1st time she's called, we use the tone. When she repeatedly disobey, we use the vibrate. One such instant is when she playing with a dog too aggressively. If I sayb"break" more than twice and she doesn't, I will use #5 vibration only because that's an active situation. I do not punish her (I've not had to), but I can't think of a time when I'd need to shock her. Vibration is, for me sufficient. I've actually ordered a tone and vibration only collar as I fear consrantly about accidentally shocking her.

Tools are not inherently good or bad. That is up to the user. Paul Bunyan would make much better use of a chainsaw, for instance, than would Jeffery Dahmer. But you can't say the chainsaw was cruel!

See, these kinds of videos are full of misinformation which ARE NOT HELPING DOGS. E-collars are amazing tools when used correctly and can improve and even save dog's lives. For starters, this gyu didn't even use the words correctly. They're called prongs or electrodes and not probes. A probe is an instrument used for exploration. It's not even the correct term. It's also called stimulation and not static. Static is electrical current produced through friction. Dogs fur will sometimes have static. The e-collar uses an electrical stimulation at a very low voltage. He says you can't ask the dog what it feels like but everyone who has done ecollar training knows that you have to desensitize and prime the dog starting with the lowest setting which a human can't even feel, until your dog can feel it. So yes, you are testing the level on your dog every time. Some are more and others less sensitive. If you were to instantly go to 35 and your dog freaks out, that's on you. Just like every tool, correct usage is compulsory in order to avoid accidents. I bet this guy walks his dog on a leash, but a leash could technically be used to choke a dog. Do you choke a dog with your leash? No, because you know how to use it correctly. Anti-bark collars are not really recommended just like invisible fencing. E-collar training should be done in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing. And finally, TOOLS DO NOT REPLACE CONSISTENT TRAINING. You can't just "spot" solve problems like barking up and jumping without going through fully consistent training. That's just lazy, and that's the reason why people shouldn't use e-collars when they don't know what they're doing. Thankfully a lot of trainers are putting out consistent knowledge about the use of remote collars which is great and can produce happy and well-balanced dogs.

While I do agree that these collars can be abused and not used properly, I disagree with the whole premise of the video. In my opinion these should be used as a training tool. They are especially great at off leash obedience. I would rather my dog get a small vibrate or shock than have them get hit by a car. A couple personal opinions about these is that only the vibrate should really be used, the collar should be mounted to where the device is on the side of the neck, not the front or back. If shock is used, it's at a low level. These should only be used in a positive manner to help modify your dog's behavior.

You have to remember this arent meant to correct behavior through punishment or hurting the dog. Properly used through training your dog should be able to react to the lowest amount of stimulation. It should feel no more than a tingle to a dog to represent the sensation of your touch to get their attention. Dogs have more nerves than we do making them more sensitive to the sensation from the collar. So we cant start feeling a sensation on those collars till around 12. where a dog can start feeling around a 5. Just like how your car can do 100+ mph, doesn't mean you have to use the highest level.

I adopted a 32lb Bull Terrier/Cattledog mix from a high kill shelter over Thanksgiving. Nothing has brought more fear, stress and anger and anxiety into my life than adopting this dog. I live in an apartment building so the mere thought walking this dog through the hallways to get him outside (without him jumping and barking at every dog and human) for his walk is absolutely frightful! I hired a highly rated dog trainer (bought a 6 pack of 45 min sessions for $1500) and it didn't really help. She did a lot of positivity type training with treats. I am at my wits end over this and I need to get this issue fixed for fear of being evicted. At this point, I think I've decided to try one of these e-collars or take the dog back to the shelter.

This dog is a liability. My father lives in a row home in a big city. The neighbors insist on adopting pit bulls from no one knows where or what happened to them. The dog bit the dog walker inflicting nerve damage. My father and neighbor have adjoining front doors. They were both exiting their houses at the same time and that dog tried to rip into my 85 year old father. Thank god the owner had a good hold of the dog. Give that dog up pronto unless you are a lawyer or can afford a good one. This is not your problem. Historically Pit bulls aggressive towards humans used to be kulled. Today these behaviors are allowed to persist. Not all are bad. Plenty of bad tiny dogs out there too. But these can be dangerous animals and you need to give it up.

musicessexx, seems you chose a mixed breed that is too much for you to handle. Is this your first dog ? The cattle dog has the nature to herd, to control its flock (so to speak). This dog, without proper frequent training will want to control other dogs, and humans too. On top of that you've got the bull terrier traits. Generally I'd say, not the best choice for apartment living unless you can give this dog many hours of play, running in order to release some of that high energy. Personally, I'd try to gift it to a rancher. If you've kept it i'd love to hear how things are going with you and this dog now. I'm prayin' all is well, or at least getting better.

I'm ol' school too. All of our dogs were very well trained, by our parents. As babies, we were placed in the play pen close by so we could begin to be trained as to how to properly train / work with our many dogs. Every dog we had had an even temperament, and all were well behaved...just as we kids were too .lol. We didn't need to take them to someone else to train them. From a very early age dad began to work with them, even in using play , (because they still were quite young) , never-the-less he still was teaching them. He too was ol' school and his methods were very simple, repetition, praise, reward. The reward was never a food treat but something that brought that pup joy, like a small rag/towel rolled up and tied and they could tug-of-war a moment or just play with it however they liked. Of course, never leave out the pat and a ''good girl'.' I see ppl everyday in the park across the street from where I live, most who have dogs. I'd say close to one out of 200 actually have worked with their dog. These dogs pretty much are walking their owners. The owners, they've turned our California State Captl Park into a hunting ground. Dog owners are almost always on the phone, dog is pulling owner as it chases squirrels, cats, birds, etc. This places dogs brain in kill mode which they sometimes carry over towards another dog. The closest thing these ppl have to ''training'' is to pull on the leash trying to drag their dog away from another persons dog. Do they have a clue that THIS IS NOT TRAINING... I don't think they do. It's a chaotic mess. Sadly, these dog owners don't even recognize that this is a problem. I'm searching ''shock'' collars however, to see if I can tweak one enough to place the prongs on the outside of the collar in the efforts to protect my very chill, well behaved dog. In the U.S. we all seem to be dealing with this overnight, (here, Feb 12th-17th, 2020) arrival of huge packs of coyotes. I witnessed this , so those ''coyote experts'' who say this doesn't happen, well maybe it once didn't but it does now. My dog and I have been stalked 3 times now by coyotes. I am trying all I can legally do to protect my 17 1/2 year old jack russell /basset girl. She somewhat resembles the old RCA Victor dog. She's never been a fighter...just a love bug. If you can make out that little picture of her face, you'll see, she has gentle eyes...like a fawn. Coyotes, it's nothing personal, they just are searching for a meal. Hazing...they could care less. A pack of them now live in our state park, the park no longer has raccoons, skunks, rabbits, possums,and more, however, ] one cat has managed to stay alive. He instantly went from 5 years feral to walking 1 foot away along side my dog. It seems he knows he now needs a home. I'm cool with that. He's still not cage ready,but he clearly has chosen me and my dog . I'm hoping I can take him home before the coyotes get him. Look up ''coyotes in midtown''. There have been many postings of coyotes in midtown Sacramento as cats keep disappearing.

Remote collars are one of the best inventions that humans have come up with to improve the communication between the pet and the owner. I recommend them 1.000.000 % that you get one to push the boundaries of your training. Remote collars go way beyond behavior suppression. If you are someone who is just going to shock a dog for barking without even trying to figure out what is happening then you simply should not have a dog in the first place. Dogs are not cats, they are not animals that can be by themselves and are independent. They need training, they need boundaries, they need limitations and they rely hard on the owner. A lot of people get a dog and then blame the dog for a certain behavior that is actually being caused but something else the owner is doing. If you don't understand dogs do not get a dog. If you don't know anything about dogs and you also do not want to learn in the process don't get a dog.

Ecollars are MORE HUMANE than leashes when used correctly. They learn it is a communication tool even on a level you cannot feel. If you want your dog to heel on a leash, typically you are pulling on their throat with a collar. With an ecollar, you are stimulating them with a light sensation that feels like when your hand falls asleep and they instantly know you are communicating with them. The bad thing about ecollars is the people who choose to use it as a punishment. This is unacceptable and harmful to the dog. I am sick of the stigma that people like this create. Your dog will learn at a significantly faster rate and acquire significantly more freedom with the proper use of an ecollar than they ever could with leashes and treats. My dog gets excited every time he sees his ecollar because he knows we are going to do something fun and he can run free. Hiking with an ecollar is LIFE CHANGING. He never breaks heel unless permitted and has perfect recall thanks to this device.

I really like that you come at this from an open-ended, get-you-thinking perspective instead of just outright saying "Do this, not that!" as well as highlighting why a spray collar isn't as harmless as it might seem to us. A lot of dog owners like taking shortcuts, and use collars *instead* of training. They should never be the first or especially not the only option. A lot of them as demonstrated are not made equal, so researching and indeed testing on yourself should happen- think about how police must be pepper sprayed before they use it! I found the level that was too uncomfortable for me and wouldn't go above that. Also, lesser brands (those $20 collars on Amazon) have been known to have very dangerous electrical failures- it's worth the extra money to get what is best for your pet, including sessions with a trainer FIRST. Shock collars have their place, but not so much in the hands of an average dog owner.

And this is why e collars are misused. 1 - never leave a collar on a dog un attended. 2 - e collars are used to replicate a reaction to a commend on a leash. 3 - a qualified trainer typically sets the level to between 5 and 15 with a typical level at7 or 8. The measurement was inadequate as only volts were measured and not the current at the different level. An e coller should never be used to teach a dog a task it should be used as a replacement to a leash correction but only when the dog is extremely adept on leash. Always research with a dog trainer before taking the step to e collar.

E-Collars can be a great training tool if you let it be. The problem usually stems from owners who don't take the time to learn how or when to use it properly. We train a lot of hunting retrievers and use E-Collars with all of them throughout their training unless an owner is dead set against it. Usually, after a short conversation to teach them more about the collar and having them feel what the stimuli feels like they are fine with it. The main problem I see here is you also used some of the cheapest and poorly performing collars on the market. With E-Collars it is important to have a well-made product to ensure the consistency of stimulation levels. If it feels like one strength one time you press the button and another way the next time it is useless. The stimulation level most of our dogs use as their standard working level isn't even felt by most people. E-Collars can certainly be used incorrectly and even to the point of abuse. However, when used properly it is one of the best tools in a dog trainer's tool belt, especially when moving into advanced off-leash training at great distances.

Ecollar is a training tool that is rarely used for punishment. Can someone tell me, why a well fed dog loves to explore the dish washer every time you open its door? That has one reason and it’s curiosity. Having a super powerful nose in a structure like a modern community has consequences for dogs. Dogs are evolved to live in forests, not our cities. So, they would live according to their instincts if not trained. Ecollar is yet another training tool. The good thing about Ecollar is that the leash is invisible. So, a dog won’t associate the sense of discomfort with its owner. Ecollar if used correctly by a trained professional is a great tool. If every kid around the corner gets their hands on it to “tame their tough dogs”, then that’s a recipe for disaster.

He yells at him to shut up and of course Max doesn't respond to that so he went and got a shock collar. Firstly, he put it on him so tight that Max was making weird throaty noises. He mock talks to Max all the time like "Bet you don't wanna bark now huh?" "You know what's coming to you if you bark sucker!" "I'm gonna tighten it more to make sure it stings when you bark" and I just hate it. Max looks miserable with that thing on 24/7. People barely come over to visit so I don't understand why he has to have that collar on so tight all the time. Whenever he's in my room I lock the door and take the collar off. I hate it.

I broke him of the resource guarding and he no longer gets treats after misbehaving in the fashion he learned, but the other behaviors are a safety issue for him and the e-collar is a great tool to distract him from the bad behavior only in those circumstances.

We’ve tried trainers, we’ve tried those whistles, we’ve even tried connecting with them and just trying to see why they dont listen. We do discipline them, (hitting them with a belt) and telling them to go into the cage, but they just dont listen. we had them for a year (there puppies, their mother lives with us, as well as their father.) And now their 1 years old, and i feel that its just as difficult to properly train them now as it was when they were puppies. They always run off, they always break out of their cages, and when they go outside, they ALWAYS run off outside the fences. And the main one who does it is the 2 born of the boys, (His name is Tiger.) He never ever completely listens unless we really yell at him. When we discipline him the belt doesnt work, when he goes into his cage because he’s done something wrong, that doesnt worth either cause he just breaks out!! Just today i had to chase him AND his older brother down because they got out the fence. It’s getting restless doing this on a daily basis. And although some of you may say, “well he’s just a troubled dog.” I find that, that isnt the case. He had a perfect home, a loving family, he’s an inside dog he’s never outside left alone, he has his own cage, as well as his brother, he’s fed, he’s bathed, he goes for walks to the park, he has the perfect home that ANY homeless dog would LOVE. He’s just one of those dogs that need this, and if it doesnt work then i have no clue of what else to do.

There's nothing random about the adjustment of shock put through the collar. You start on one and move up, one level at a time, until you get a visible stimuli response from your dog. Your dog will handle much higher than you can. A good collar will have roughly 100-300 levels. My Euro Mountain Shephernese responds at 12. You might have to tick higher, depending on the situation, but mine has sat on 12 since I got it. If you are trying to get a dangerous situation avoided, then you go higher. There's very little reason for you to go above lowest, or just above lowest stimuli response though. You use tone for a specific reason. You can do it so that if you hit the sound button they're trained to recall, or sit. You can attach sounds to various commands. The collars usually have around 8-20 different sounds. Vibrate is what I use to let her know she's going to far. A warning. There's several different patterns. This can also be used for non-verbal commands. I rarely use shock. There's usually no point if you are training your dog. You should research your dog breed, what they're like, what they like, dislike, common behaviors, etc.

Unfortunately, you are not going to get accurate voltage readings on a base level multi-meter like that one. Most transmitter controlled e-collars put out several hundred to several thousand volts, not 40 - 90 volts (that low would be equivalent to many TENS units). Some e-collar output profiles are intermittently occurring, alternating-type currents: and others are more along the lines of intermittent direct-current pulses. You'll need a (good) oscilloscope if you want to see the voltage outputs and their corresponding electrical signatures or profiles.

I use e-collars because I know what I am doing. Once I show clients what the collars do and how to properly use them, they are for the use of the collars. Remove the triggers? seriously? you teach the dog how to deal with triggers. The dogs are happy, and my clients are happy. Job done. No fear, no injury, no damage.

Use it on your own skin, work about a week with a longer leash, watch some great videos on e collars and don’t listen to it’s animal cruelty. It’s not.

The problem is most people use these collars incorrectly, I have 2 English mastiffs and the both went through e-collar training. People use the collar to "punish" the dog and that is improper use. I almost never need to go past the first "lowest" setting. when used properly the collar is used to regain attention and focus and thats it! if you think that you can train the dog by using a remote collar to "curb" unwanted behavior you are sadly mistaken. The shock that it gives is meant to be used as a tap on the shoulder to get the dogs attention so they are focused on you when you give the command. For example if I am walking my dog in the park and he sees another dog and I feel him staring to pull towards the other dog, a quick tap of the button changes his focus back to me and not on the other dog I give the heel command and we are quickly back on our way with no incident. NEVER USE AN E-COLLAR AS PUNISHMENT AND NEVER USE THE E-COLLAR IF THE DOG IS IN AN AGRESSIVE STATE.

my experience with barking dogs is as a pedestrian. i notice dogs bark at anyone or any other dog that passes the house they are confined to. with other dogs it seems obvious they want dog attention. with people i am pretty sure there is a guard tendency. also i think sometimes dogs are frustrated they don't get enough contact. we have a leash law in our town. walking down the street and being barked at is annoying. but living next to a home with a dog barking at you every time you step outside is frustrating. barking affects humans like shocks affect dogs. so my solution is if you live in town, do not own a dog. i used to live in the country and every dog i met that was free roaming, was well behaved if it was owned. packs of wild dogs however are a serious issue. i love pets. however i now look at the wild animals around me and think associating with them is better than "owning" a pet. sometimes however in the country, having a dog is important. even having a cat is important. cats are very good at killing snakes. dogs are good at protecting chickens. someday people in town will see their "need" for a pet is hurting the pet and is a very selfish motivation. i know that sounds harsh for pet owners. if you are thinking about owning think twice please.

As an autistic person with PTSD and sensory processing disorder, all of these seem like they would give the dog PTSD and amplify aggression issues. If you can't take the time to train a dog properly, don't get one in the first place. That lady should have tested the collars on herself. Not her dog.

These things are effective when done for specific behavior. I remember my dog used to hop on the kitchen counter when he smells food, and I couldn’t get him to stop with any verbal queues. I was recommended to use the static shocker, and it corrected the behavior effectively. It is a good way to create an negative association with the behavior you want to stop, but this type of device should be used responsibly.

DataOrItDidntHappen first of all you don’t know what settings I was using and what have tried to correct the behavior prior, so pump your break on your presumptive judgments pal. Have you actually held the device on your hand? How do you know it is painful? I did! I tried it on myself before even putting on my dog. Secondly, I would never hurt my dog and I have used it at lowest setting, and only to correct the behavior, which it did work for your information. So let’s not jump to conclusions and assuming that I am zapping my dog 24/7. There is a reason why this device is still on the market and considered safe for use. Some dogs are very fixated on certain behaviors and they are not receptive of anything else, in such cases you need something that can interrupt pattern and break their attention away from the behavior you want to prevent. For someone who has his name as “data or it didn’t happen”, you sure make a lot of assumptions without having any of the facts straight.

Man I see a lot of comments of people saying they’d get a collar but only use the shock setting in an extreme circumstance. That is definitely the wrong way to use an E-Collar. You can’t just throw in a new stimulus like that while they’re already in an extreme circumstance and expect them to know how to react to it. You have to introduce them to the stimulus so they know how to respond to it. Use the shock setting on low as part of a game they enjoy and use it when they don’t follow the rules correctly. It’s correction, not punishment. They’ll get used to the stimulus correcting the action, and they won’t be afraid of it because it’s part of a game they like playing. They’ll associate the shock with playing the game correctly. A properly trained dog should be excited to see the shock collar come out. It means they get to go do something.
@bencesarosi7718 Жыл бұрын
"Lots of volts, but minuscule amps" That's simply not true. Amperage depends on and is proportional to voltage. The reason these things are non-lethal lies behind the fact that the impulse is extremely short, thus very small amount of energy is transferred. Also, the circuit goes from contact to contact rather than through vital organs. Current will always be equal to the voltage divided by the resistance of the substance it is passing through. Consequently, the higher the voltage, the higher the current as well, there's no other way around it. Since you have no direct control over the resistance of tissue, it is impossible to have high voltage with low current. Also the voltages measured are just wrong. You can't measure it like that, as the output impedance is very different from when the current passes through skin. Skin resistance is typically said to be between 1-100 kOhms, so a more correct way of estimating the voltage would be to measure the amps through a resistor of, say, 22k and multiply your result by 22000. And I suspect even that will be pretty much off, but way above 20-90V. Anyways, everybody please just refrain from animal cruelty.
