Awesome! Good luck teaching your pup not to chase those birds and feel free to reach out with questions any time!

@ I love the idea that the vibration setting is associated with good behaviour and it would give her the chance to associate it with positive reward. It was also valuable for me to realise that if you don’t have that and you just pop on the collar and work your way up through the settings to get her to stop chasing, she would have no idea what is going on anyway. I did borrow a collar once and I felt terrible using it because of this reason. The way you train with it gives the dog the understanding and gives them the chance to learn the correct behaviour. Also using the word NO means your voice also has power and hopefully is all that is needed in future. That would be great. 👍 Thanks Great videos.

I'm not sure if there's a difference between a shock collar and an e collar. I doubt it. Regardless, I've never used either on a dog. Never had the need (I've been blessed with very good dogs my whole life). However, a couple months ago my neighbor's dog got out and came to my house. I went to put a leash on him to take him home and the collar was really tight. I could barely fit 2 fingers under it. I looked closer and realized what it was, and why it was probably so tight. I loosened the collar and found the "probes" that go into the dog's neck. (I've never seen one of these.) They. Are. Massive.
