The $130 for this top of the line set has already payed for itself,Īnd will only increase in value as I continue to train.īeing able to call him back from getting involved in other dogs really fighting, from traffic, etc has been completed.Īs an added bonus, its helped out significantly in overall attentiveness to what I want him to do. Lately he’s been getting a semi-agressive attitude when we walk out of the house and another dog is on the sidewalk out front.Įven when he barks and starts to run toward the other dog to confront him for being on ”his’ territory, all I’ve needed to do is give a sharp ‘Hier’, and he stops and comes back to me, though he still will bark a few times. I’ve actually been slack and not following his training like I should, mainly because even after 5 months I can be in the middle of the dog park, and simply call “Hier”, and he will stop playing, running, play-fighting with another dog and come back to me without fail. The deal is, you do not use ecollar to primarily shock him into not doing something, you use it as FEEDBACK to him on what you desire. Took about 10 minutes to train him at that level to recall on command. No lie, with the ecollar set to about a 15 on a scale of 100, which measure about 19 volts, several ma, and 100 htz, he just barely registers it, acts like he got bit by a bug, not jumping, howling. I had clicker training for 8 weeks with my dog, and while most commands worked about great, and I was able to even get him to learn to roll-over on a verbal command in 10 minutes, recall was minimally successful. Once you’ve found their ‘working level’, you start by training them to recall. You do not go around cranking up the power trying to zap them every time they do something you think is wrong. Then you start from the lowest setting and work your way up until your dog can just feel the stimulation.Īt that point, they will either look around as if a flea just bit them or similar. He’s a pro-trainer of SAR, Police, and other real-life work dogs.īasically, you get a real ecollar that has 20-100 different settings. Most people are truely ignorant of how ecollars ‘should’ be used, as is well detailed on. I have a 1 year old Sheltie, and an 5 month old Dogtra ecollar. There are always douchebags who try to come off as more ‘humanitarian’ than everyone else. The big problems with things like this and the remote trainers are that people expect magic and in the process misuse the tool. C: If you actually follow the instructions on a radio fence your dog might never even get shocked as you will have spent a couple weeks training them to go away from the flags when the collar beeps at them. B: Almost everything made this way is self adjusting and shouldn’t need to deliver more than a tingle if it’s working. ![]() All custom batteries are made from semi-standard cells and modified.Īs for animal cruelty: A: Dogs don’t fondle things with their skin so they’re not quite as sensitive there as we are. ![]() Keep in mind that precisely nobody makes their own batteries unless they are one of a few battery makers. There’s also an RFA-67 which is used in the larger collars and a bit more popular that seems to be a stack of a couple coin cells (2025s or something) in a flatter package. Battery here is an RFA-188 (before you pull it out of the plastic).
