Is Your Dog Ready to be Trained?
Are you ready to start training your family puppy? You may want to consider the use of an electronic collar, such as the Tri Tronics G2 for example. There are several methods to teach your dog and this technique can prove quick and effective when used properly. Whether you are concerned about stopping negative behaviors such as jumping up and barking or you want to teach your pet commands, like how to heel, sit and stay, this remote method of dog training can lead your dog to obedience right away.
Here are some ideas for effective remote dog collar training:
1. Follow the same step-by-step process every time you teach your dog a new command. If your dog already knows a command he can often be a bit confused when it is used in conjunction with the collar, so developing a good method from the beginning can help to alleviate| that potential confusion.
2. chunk the lessons down into easy tasks and keep them shorter. Dogs have little attention spans and they learn best when they are taught new behaviours in smaller steps.
3. Be consistent in your method of training and the actions that you expect from your dog.
4. Concentrate on teaching your dog one command or action at a time. He will not be able to make the connections between the collar and the command if you are too scattered in your training method.
5. If your dog performs the command correctly, be sure to let him know by using praise.
6. If your puppy seems confused by a command, simplify it so that he can know success. You want these training sessions to be a good experience for both you and your beloved pet.
7. Do not have the Tri Tronics Upland G2 (or any collar for that matter) set at a level of intensity that is too high when you first start out. You will need to carefully test your pet’s sensitivity to the remote collar and you should start with it on the lowest level.
8. Ideally you will want the introduction phase to take place in an area with as little distractions as possible. He will not be able to focus and learn easily if there is too much happening around him.
9. To teach your dog to be realiable, you will want to add in some training around distractions at a later time as this really more closely mimics real life events.
10. You will want to add those distractions gradually though as opposed to too much all at once and be sure that they are not the type of distractions that will scare your dog as this can definitely work against the training.
11. When you are training around the distractions, it will most likely be necessary to set the collar at a higher level of intensity to get the results you are going for.
12. Your dog learns by repetition so you will want to repeat the commands often especially at the start of the training process.
Once your dog has a some good command successes, be sure to include play time as a part of your training time together. Always try to keep in mind that you want this time to be fun for both you and your pet. The Tri Tronics Upland G2 EXP is a tool that takes your dog’s obedience skills to a whole new level. The process of remote dog training can be fast, fun and easy to implement.
