- How to get your dog to come back to you when called is something we talk about often. The remote collar is something that does save dog's lives every single day. Modern E-collar training is dog training for the future, it's the most advanced piece of technology we have in dog training today. Often times the remote collar gets confused with an old school shock collar, the remote collar is much different.

#dogtrainer #ecollar #remotecollar - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
I used to HATE e collars and prongs I used to be one of those people who were uneducated and thought they were just abusive devices. After working with a balanced trainer, learning how to properly use the tools it opened up my dogs world!
I find ecollars especially helpful for me when I want to take my dog on a trail while I'm riding horses. While I'm riding I really can't get to my dog easily, and on trails things always pop up other dogs, people, wildlife, etc. It gives me a peace of mind not having to worry about my dog at all while I'm riding and we all just have fun.
Exactly the same! I didn’t understand it so I was scared of it so I rallied against it. Then watching Tom’s videos made me realize it’s a tool not a torture device. Just like a hammer can build a house or smash his skull hitting on his hands it’s in
it's just a tool and you can use the vibrate or the loud tone rather than the zap...it's used for hunting dogs who are far away to recall...once that dog locks into something, he will chase, no matter how loud the handler yells recall...
Well done to opening up to more options
@@sherrcon the “zap” is a misconception. It is actually a form of muscle stimulation. Just like treatment you would get at a chiropractor. There is no “shock” to it what so ever
@@claywills9993 have you tried putting it on your neck and have someone click the zap?...i bet you haven't...you can set the intensity of the collar from 1 to 99...try setting it to 99 and let us all know that it's just a muscle stimulation...lol...you are hilarious...better yet, zap yourself when it is raining outside or stand in a bucket/pool of water and then tell us it's just a muscle stimulation...lol...
I am a veterinarian and have a 7 month old female black field Lab that after watching your channel (and others), reading 10 books, decided to hire a trainer specifically to teach me how to properly use the E-collar. After 6 weeks of private lessons and my training consistently; I now have a 100% reliable recall and can take my Zenna ANYWHERE and know 100% that when I say “here” she will rocket to my side!!
Best investment! Happy for you!
🥳🥳🥳🥳
Even if you use an ecollar you will never have 100%
@@1316Salva do you have a dog with recall?? My malinois has 100% recall. So maybe do research before you comment. Why does the military and police use dogs if they don’t have 100% recall.
@@cammcvittie9004 even if every time you called your dog in the past they came it doesn't mean that the next time they will come for sure. You can get it very reliable but there's always a possibility of something happening where your dog even ignores the ecollar stim. Yes, I'm being a little pedantic but people here are praising the ecollar like it's a gift sent from god instead of understanding why they tried to use positive reinforcement and it didn't work
I am blind and have a guide dog. Typically, guide dogs are not allowed off leash in areas that are not fenced, because those of us who are blind cannot see the environment and properly react to where our dogs are going or understand when it is time to recall them. The dogs catch on that we cannot see them and do not always recall reliably. However, after talking with my trainer who moved onto working with Dogs on E collar, I decided to get one and work with my girl! We have conditioned her for a few weeks and she is now to the point where we are just introducing her to new environments with the E collar. It is only used for off leash recall with us, and she is still dragging a long line, but responds completely to the E collar! It’s giving her so much freedom and she absolutely loves to run and play ball at the parks and in big fields! I will be taking her to the beach next week and on some hikes and I am so happy that she finally gets the freedom and downtime that any good working dog deserves! She wears a bell so I can hear where she is at and I know that she will recall to meet whenever I need her.
I have an akita inu with very high prey drive and very stubborn. Because e collars are illegal in my country and considered abusive I didn't want to use one. But then I've seen more and more UA-cam videos about them and I started to wonder if they are really that abusive. I did a lot of research, bought a book and finally got a dogtra arc 800. Because e collars (and many other tools) are banned where I live I couldn't go to a trainer. We started training when my dog was 1,5yo. I introduced her to the e collar for about 2 months, since then she is completely off leash. She ALWAYS listens to me, even if she sees wildlife or other dogs. And our relationship got SO MUCH BETTER! The e collar is still on her for emergencies but I didn't have to use it once since we finished the 2 month introduction and training phase. The e collar changed everything. We both are not frustrated anymore, we are the perfect team and we both enjoy daily hour long walks through the nature. The e collar changed everything to the best possible! Thanks Tom 😊
I’m a 60-year-old woman who rescued 90 pound Dogo Argentine. I struggled to give her the proper amount of running exercise and to control her during stressful walks in our neighborhood. I watched your videos for the E collar and bought one. After training with her the E collar has saved our lives. She is now able to run free on our hikes in the woods and is equally adjusted to neighborhood walks. The E collar gives us the added security we both need.
BIG DOGGOOO
I have a sweet Dogo as well, adopted from a shelter and terrified of bicyclists and skateboarders. If I see the riders soon enough, I can sometimes get her attention and distract her with a "Watch" command. My old e-collar was clumsy, and I was moving, so I just bought a new--and smaller!--e-collar. This is a good intro video to share with others who may think e-collars are cruel.
I got an ecollar for my husky-GSD rescue after he decided that the woods behind my apartment were more interesting than whatever I might have for him. I now use it every day when we go out, and it has been great for both of us. We go out together hiking and I never have to worry about him getting into another hiker's business. Having the remote correction saved him from a questionable snake encounter about a month ago. Now when I pull it out he will push his 'sister' out of the way so he can get his on first. He doesn't get excited for the leash, he get's excited for the ecollar. For both he and his sister it has been a saving grace at the dog park. If there is ever a fight that seems like it might be starting to break out I can call them and if necessary apply a light stim or vibration and they come instantly without needing to be ready to run across the park. Now they are starting to default to me when a kerfuffle breaks out. It is one of the best investments that I have ever made.
Thansks for the feedback!
Its almost same with me! Also have a shepsky and he would chase all the bunny's (wich there are a lot off here xd)
Would love to hear about the things you did / steps you took to train them with the e collar as well as create that excitement!! - Me and my GSD/mixed rescue!
@@Anna-io4zh To be perfectly transparent it is not animated excitement with jumping in as much as it is dramatic nihilism until I pull them out and then hyper focus and nagging to make sure I know that he is now entitled to go outside.
Tom has some great videos, but the ones that I found first and really like are Shield k9's 4 pt. video series. I won't link all the videos as I don't want to be rude to Tom, but this is the link for the first one. ua-cam.com/video/HOvhUBW6t_A/v-deo.html
Biggest thing is to go slow with the training process, be clear and consistent, and don't give him bigger challenges than what he is ready for. Altogether it took about a month before I was comfortable going leash free on a hike. I didn't want to put him in a position where he was getting punished for not obeying a command he didn't fully understand yet.
I have a 2yr old female husky and even though we live in the country when I let her or if she gets off leash she is gone for hrs. And I am try in to catch her. I finally figured out the more I chase the more she runs. So now I either leave a door open and she comes in or I set in my yard with my back toward her pretending like I'm not paying any attention. She will then come up and lean against me. I feel like I'm a horrible human to keep such a beautiful intelligent dog captive. I love her so so much and I've had her since a day after she turned one and now she listen to me very well unless she's gotten loose in the house she does tricks and obeys me. I do not want to keep this dog locked up she is so remarkable. I guess I just want to know that I'm not making her life miserable.
Regularly take our 3yo female blue heeler with me to play disc golf. 99% of the time I use voice only but she has her e-collar on just in case. She loves to carry her disc and be out and about with me. Life changer.
Game changer!!
I taught my dog recall from a very young age and would occasionally tune it up with the vibrate or beep function when we are at our HUGE off leash park. He has been good for over a year running back to me when I say "touch." He is now 2 and recently a light went off and he bolted to chase a noisy truck that was driving up the middle of our park going way too fast. It was out of the blue with no warning and his life was in danger. I didn't play around with vibrate or beep, I shocked him as I called his name because he was running about 30 mph on the trucks tail. He stopped on a dime, turned to find me and came running back....nuff said! It's my fault and I now pay extra attention and watch for vehicles coming on the street and I get him leashed up when one is 1000 ft away before he notices it! I don't want this to happen again but will be prepared.
The tens unit analogy is great!
It’s true!!
I have given my dog, who came to me very aggressive and acting out from severe trauma, a wonderful life of fun and freedom because I have the ability to communicate with him from anywhere.
WoooHoo!!! No bad dogs army is here with another awesome FREE video + demo with the one and only Lakota.
:)
Bruh I thought this was an old video because I've been thinking about an e collar after watching your videos for the past 2 weeks...nope. Tom just came out with the video that I literally needed. Seeing Lakota so so happy and free is all I want for my boy. Like you said, just try it. You can return it. That was my final push. Thanks Tom. I'm going to binge more of your videos because I want him to have his best life and our best relationship.
Yasss
I literally just received an e collar I ordered after watching his videos. Pull up UA-cam as I’m opening it up and boom… this video
We rescued a white boxer mix puppy who we found out two weeks later was deaf. We hired a balanced trainer to show us how to use the dog Rea e-collar properly. We take her off leash on walks or out in nature and she is always amazing because if it. We live that she gets the freedom to explore but she will always check in with us. She never goes too far without looking back to see where we are or if we are going to call her back.
Hi, I am from Germany and I hope my English is so good that I understood everything right you said in the video. I really didn't know that the e-collar can be soft. Here so many people say that it hurts for the dog. But if I am right you can choose the level that it's soft for your dog and so I can get the attention.
🙈 Oh, I don't know enough English words to say what I mean. But thank you for your very good channel 👍
Yes. It does not SHOCK the animal. As he mentioned, try it on yourself at each level. An invaluable tool for the pet you love.
I got a husky as a puppy and around 8months I started his off leash training with e collar. My older brother then wanted a husky and bought a 2yr old on Craigslist. The dog was out of control and always running away. Taught them how to train with e collar and the dude was completely different in a week.
I got an E-collar after my lab ran away into someone’s backyard I was a little sacred at first but then I found ur videos and that’s what made me think food is not the only thing I have to rely on for training my dog. She’s a lab so food works yes, but not for long she lost interest in it. Walking became something I didn’t look forward too which is sad. So that’s why I got an E-collar it took weeks of training slowly for her and me to get used too. And now she has a recall which still impresses me to this day and can completely be off leash to have her fun. Now when she see the E-collar she aways thinks we’re going some where fun and that’s good😊. I really thank 🙏 u for posting theses videos it’s taught me so much.😁
Happy to hear the positive changes in your dog!
Did your dog not like the e collar at first and then get used to it over time? I'm really struggling with this with my dog. Please reply please!
@@meeshell2267 I can tell you that my Shepard mix took to it right away, and understood quickly what it meant - it was an invisible leash. I had a story similar to the above where my dog went after a buzzard that swooped down and taunted him. He ended up clearing a 5ft fence and was in someone's back yard before I could even think about catching up to him. I decided right then and there, I had to do something immediately. I did some research and came across Tom's videos on the 280C. I went on Amazon and had it the same day. After binging several hours of videos and tutorials, I felt confident to put it on and begin the process - after trying it on myself, of course... it is true, on the setting 6 or 7 I use for training, I couldn't even feel it! After just one 15 minute session, his on leash was so much better than the prong alone I had been using. After a few sessions on-leash, I took him off-leash, and couldn't believe the difference. On a few occasions I have had to use the boost button (which adds 10 to the setting, and I tried up to 20 on myself and it in no way hurts) when a squirrel or other dog got his focus. He immediately responded and turned on a dime and came right back to me. He is excited to put it on, because he knows we are going to have fun!
I would LOVE to hear your E-collar success stories in the comments! :)
Ecollars are amazing tools!! The way you explain them is EXCELLENT! Also, important sidenote - positive you know, but please people do not buy cheap ecollars! They are a disaster! Only reputable brands!
Best thing I’ve ever bought, my chihuahua is the most level headed, obedient and driven little dog. Since adopting balanced techniques she has come on leaps and bounds. Her ecollar is just the safety net and reinforcement on the side. It gives me the confidence to trust in her abilities. Now it’s been conditioned properly, I rarely have to use it. It’s not a crutch, it’s my seatbelt.
Off topic: but can you please restock the T-shirt that you’re wearing??? PLEASE😃
Which Dogtra would you recommend for my little chihuahua/terrier mix. She is 13lbs
@@TheDarleneBrandon dogtra iq mini is the smallest unit by dogtra but you could get away with the dogtra iq size wise I should think
I love the relationship you have with your dog❤
The information you’ve given in this, and all your videos is great. This style and videography of this one was so clean and profession. Always love seeing Lakota! Great work!
I just did the first session with the ecollar turned on with my dog and it went so well, she seemed to enjoy herself so much! I think the clarity of what I was asking made her so eager. Never seen her like that before. I am so excited.
I already shared this with my husband. I been wanting an E-collar as I been walking the GS 7 months and just found a trainer. I want to give my puppy the best life and I trust her just not the world like this said. she already comes back off-leash with no e collar and just wants to brush in other places where she is not 100 percent. thanks for this video.
Yesb glad this helps!
Fantastic educational video! 👏 Thank you!!
Tom - everything you presented in this video is so true. I rely on my dog’s e-collar daily. He’s a working line GSD and we live in the woods of NH THANK YOU!
Great explanation of the collar! I will definitely be sending this video to my clients who are on the edge about remote training. Thank you for putting out this content. I had a dream of dog training. Watched your videos, applied the knowledge to my own dog, applied to an amazing company and now dog training full-time. So thankful for you.
Montana loved this very clear explanation of the benefits of E collars. I have used them for years because I also love my dogs. It makes STRESS free off leash adventures possible.😊👍 Thank you Tom for all your help I always learn more skills from you.
Love my micro educator for a 4lb pup, no regrets!!
Edit: Just watched the video and the amount of wholesome Lakota content makes me incredibly happy!
Aweesome to hear!
You were talking about how dogs should be excited to put the e-collar on, and ever since getting the prong collar via your videos/recommendation, even just hearing the noise he gets super excited because he knows we're about to go on a walk. Also walks have been night and day switching from a harness to the prong collar, and not only has his obedience been better, he's just overall more happy having some structure in his life now. So thank you for that!
I have a Blue Tick Beagle that had to be constantly fenced or on a lead in the yard or she would bolt. Started training her with the e collar and now I completely trust her off leash and she can roam the yard. Seeing her able to chase my yellow lab around and just be a dog outdoors has been an amazing change for us!
I am excited that you have a podcast. I have watched other of your UA-cam videos and I grateful I have another way of consuming your content.
Youre videos changed my perspective on remote collars and prongs. Thank u sir
The e-collar has changed our lives! I got my dog 3 months ago. She was reactive, anxious and completely unmanageable. Through a ton of training and work we were able to completely turn this situation around. I properly introduced the e-collar and now we are off leash nearly all the time. We are both much happier! Thanks for all your videos and content. It has really helped me and my dog!
love the message and information you are putting out
So inspired! And super helpful comments in the comment section. Makes me excited to train my dogs
Thank you. I will continue to educate myself on this. I owe it to my pet.
Thank You ! I just love your videos ! Thank you for making clear to to teach the dog and their human how to use it !
I am using a Dogtra 280c with my trainer's help...she is learning recall slowly with a long line and continuous as well as using a different function for reactivity as she needs help breaking her attention beyond her prong and it is working beautifully and she calms down and relaxes immediately. Really love what this tool is doing to finally help my dog be a dog.
Hi from Cape Town, South Africa. I just want to thank you, so much, for sharing all of these incredible videos. I believe 100% in balanced training and I have huge respect for your sensible, level-headed approach. I wish with all my heart that you were on this side of the world, since I have an Everest-like task ahead of me with my 2 rescues (that I kind of inherited). Between the 2 of them, I think I’m faced with almost every problem in the book and I type this while trying to heal from an injury that happened on a walk...if you can call what we do ‘walking’. Devices and collars like those in your videos seem to be thin on the ground here, as are balanced trainers unfortunately...but at least I have your videos for guidance. You give me hope.
I stumbled across your videos 4 weeks ago and you literally saved my dog. Starting with a prong collar and heading into an e-collar after 3 weeks of training my dog has went from beyond spastic to almost 100% recall for me and about a 50% with my husband 😅. But thank you soooooooooooo much @tomdavis.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
We have an amazing trainer who introduced your e-collar to us. Great tool!
Your the Best! I would have never considered an Ecollar for training until becoming a fan/student online. I appreciate you so much, Tom! If I lived upstate I would apply for a job ...West Coast girl ;) Born on the East Coast :)
VERY COOL! Thanks for the videos.. I will watch them all and finally order my ecollar.... YOU ROCK DUDE!!!
I love your videos so much. They are really helping me train my rescue! Thank you so much!!
Thanks so much Carly!
You are the trainer who taught me to use the e-collar and the Herm Spreinger correctly with a 3yr old Shepherd who was untrained. She was a master level puller which I turned to my advantage once she would walk reliably at heel, offleash. Cannot thank you enough!👏😉
Because of your videos, I purchased a Dogtra 280C. So far I haven’t used it yet though, because I don’t want to do it wrong! Ultimate goal is for GREAT recall so that she can have safe off leash adventures. I need to re-watch your ecollar videos to gain confidence to try the one I bought! Really really want to learn. Thanks for explaining it like a tens unit - I couldn’t feel it on my skin and wondered why.
Love you channel. Your info is helping untold amount of dogs. Warms my heart.
Thank God for you! Just took my 9 mo. GSD for his first off leash walk. He did great never more than 15 feet from me, and came back every time I asked! So fun!!
I kind of want to see a certain other YT dog trainers two week GSD project dog come to this channel… Not that the other trainer isn’t good, but a huge validation for these methods would be to see that girl turn into the amazing dog she clearly can be.
Zach gorge trained Moria a rescued gsd. I thinks she been adopted out though
Lol I'm watching that train wreck and just think "yeah Moira isn't trained at all". She needs a balanced trainer and his series is proving that r+ isn't gonna work.
@@rauldelgadillo8447 It will work. Just not in two weeks. Time is ultimately the difference between balanced an unbalanced. Zak said it takes two years for him to consider his dog fully trained which isn't realistic for most people. But I have no doubt given his two year timeline he could train Moira.
@@slimslither system is a little flawed when any fault could be blamed on "it takes time". Dog training not going well? "It takes time".
@@rauldelgadillo8447 Even with the two year approach you should see progress regularly in some aspect of the training(leash manners, off leash, tricks, socialization, etc). If no progress is being seen clearly you need to change tactics, but generally speaking in all of his series I've watched there is progress.
Is it a lot less progress than a balanced trainer could get in the same amount of time? Definitely.
you're the man! thank you for all of the great insight.
Off leash hikes are so much fun with your dog. However so many hike without an electric collar, and put their dog and other dogs in harm.
Yep
Not everyone need an ecollar to train their dogs. In fact nobody needs it, there are so many other methods, it is just for the people who don’t know how to create enough value for their dogs to come back to them without it.
@@missylarsson3517 it's the only way to communicate with your dog completely off leash. High prey drive dogs need it. Maybe every dog doesn't need it, however a lot more people should be using it.
@@missylarsson3517 Tom Davis has his dog off leash without the e collar in many videos including this one. But yes you are kind of right, regardless of whether or not you use an e collar it is impossible to achieve a powerful, reliable recall without being able to show your dog that there is value in coming back to you.
I like this type of video ! Outside with Lakota enjoying being outside. More please :)
Tom this is an excellent video. My 5 dogs and I are Team Peaches Dog Training and Education. I use e-collars. I believe in them, when they are in the right hands. I use them because my dogs' lives are more important to me than anything else. My dogs love their collars. As you mentioned, the collars mean freedom and we are going to do something wonderful and fun. The collars are a positive in the minds of my dogs.
You are so right, people don’t understand what they are! We love our dogs just as much as others. Love more ❤️
One more great video. You really know how to explain and analyse everything in a very simple and clear way. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much!!
I've only been using dogtra 1900s black edition for 1 week...and it was a very pleasant experience for my german shepherd dog and me to be able to communicate well..thanks dogtra
I have a Dogtra 1900S and I’m not using it to its full capacity with my GSD. This video has inspired me to buckle down and really train and use it. Thank you! I needed this push!
Yay! Have fun!
Just bought the No Bad Dogs edition from Germany! Waiting for it to come across the ocean and be an awesome Christmas present for us and our Leia! Yes I could have bought the normal edition from an European shop and saved custom tax and shipping; but to be honest I really wanted to somehow be part of what you're doing and be thankful to you and the NBD army :)
Nice video, very descriptive and accurate!
Great video, Because of you I have trained my dog with the E collar and its been great. You should always mention there are huge differences between E collars so you don’t have someone that just watches this video and buys a $35 e collar on amazon and puts that thing on their dog.
Another great video and great information! Thanks Tom!
Thanks so much!!
I bought an E collar last month, my family, my dog and I loves it. Our training and relationships with our dog grew instantly. We found the perfect settings for stimulation for our dog. As of right now, we only using the beep and vibrate. I highly recommend this production just start on a lower settings to find the perfect level for your dog.
Thank you for this IMPORTANT information. As always I love watching you!! 👏 Great job. I’m watching this video from Colorado Springs on vacation!!
Awesome!!! Oldie but a goodie~!
Omg the running across water looked so cute
Great video!! Very informative and it's nice to see a well balanced and trained doggo. My dog is a pitbull, olde English bulldogge mix. I'm looking forward to training him properly with a E collar. Thanks a bunch for the video 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I can't wait to get mine.
Kinda cool to see you in the Saratoga Spa State Park. I like to walk my dog there often.
I use an e-collar with my 3-year-old GSD, and it has been a game changer for both of us in terms of communication. She is 80 pounds of pure strength and speed, so having a way to put the brakes on her or bring her back to me is essential. This video is awesome, and I’m so glad you made it, because now I can refer it to all the people who always comment on/ask me questions about using one!
Love the Saratoga Park back drop! We will be starting Nellie & Wiley on ecollar training with Zach soon. I’d happily volunteer them for a video training ❤️
Thanks Tom. I soo want to train my dog to wear the e-collar. Will look for your other videos.
NO BAD DOG ARMY, LIKE AND COMMENT AS FAST AS YOU CAN ❤️👍🏻💯
Hey Tom, Its been a long time since I used e-collars on my Rotties (which they each lived a good life). You pretty much explained it well enough that the e-collar is Safe and very Effective to help kep our dog safe for themselves and its surroundiings. Well, its been a long time so I gotta get back and even retrain myself in order to use this device again. I will browse your channel for some e-collar training videos. Kep up the Awesome work. God Bless
Beautiful pup! My 2.5 year old boxer cat s currently at a board and train and I am really excited about getting to learn to use the E collar.
I have a mini educator, I've had it for 6 months and have used it 3 times. I am going to do research and learn how to properly use it. I'm currently doing positive reinforcement classes (as in, training to become a trainer), but eventually want to venture into balanced training, I've got to start somewhere
I use the ET-300 mini educator colllar for my Doberman, and we rarely have her on a leash because the collar works great. We trained her to where we really don’t use the collar anymore, she’s extremely obedient but we keep it on her as a precaution.
My dogs have always been so curious about rattlesnakes and have been bitten, need to learn this training to call off. I work my dogs daily but a solid recall has always been the hardest training for me. Especially since we live in an area with no fencingThank you for such an informative video
Trust and believe in u man. When u said that u love ur dog.
That's enough for me to search the other info no more.
Thx man..
May live with ur buddy with a happy long life.
🙏🙏🙏🤘
My dog is the same, around a 6 on the Dogtra collar system recalls him consistently. I hit a 12-14 when I'm competing for his attention with something else that's highly stimulating.
Tom, Thank you for your explanation of the e collar. Was searching for training for Beau. After cking out a 2 wk training that uses e collar training i was skeptical... but this video has convinced me e collars are a great tool for active dogs & humans! ✌️💗
Amazing respect
I just upgraded to a automatic dog door that will work with a separate collar. We have the dogtra training collar that is amazing but now we have a permanent fence and they can go outside whenever they want. So much in the way of electronics are out there for pets and their people. Having the ability to teach them is amazing and videos like yours have helped me so much.
Happy for yoU!
you have the most amazing dog i have ever seen she is so well trained and its so beautiful to see you with her and how much she loves you and you love her. I enjoy all your videos and you are such a wonderful trainer and teacher. Thank you so much for all your teachings. You are such a Amazing human being and your dog is just THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, she is such a pleasure to watch so well trained and such a good dog. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
I really enjoy you videos I am currently working towards getting a e collar, I am wanting to get the 280c. I have also used your videos to help me with teaching my first personal dog also she is my service dog. She was crazy before I was turned to your channel and noticed that how my parents taught me to train her was with no structure. My parents have 2 dogs that are 25 pounds that will walk away and 80% of the time they come when called but they just let them come back at there own pace and not straight away. I didn’t want that for my girl.
Both there dogs are not as active as my dog (just turned 2, 65 pound, working line black field lab). My parents also use strictly positive training to where I am balanced. They don’t like that I use a prong and I showed them your video on prong collars. Even though they still don’t like that I do use tools to correct her, and tell me about it every time they can, they have backed off a bit on trying to tell me how to raise my dog. They are now starting to understand why I use tools and why I’m very structured with her and don’t talk to her excessively and give her so many boundaries. Including on my semi truck she has boundaries and stays on a 10 ft leash, while I’m driving, so that if I need to I can correct her.
Excellent and entertaining as always.
Thanks so much Richard !
Just purchased one brother ! Trying to watch all your videos first before introducing. Love the videos 🙌
Just added Dogdra IQ to my cart! Perfect timing i had many questions.
Tom as always right on time with the education! Lol 🐾🐕💕
excellent information on why to use a E-Collar. I am getting ready to purchase one for my female White shepherd who has high prey drive. She loves squirrels, obsessed.
Nice clear informative video😉 keep up te good work ✌🏻
Yep the Dogtra has saved us. We have the 280 & the tracker! It has a tone that has created a great response from my dog. Not even stimulation! Great options!
Awesome, thanks for sharing Jamie!
Good info about ecollar. Now it is more clear and understandable how ecollar works to every dog.
Your dog is amazing!
Amazing content, love it 👍👍
Thanks Courtney!
Ecollar in combination with a good of leash training is the best and both of you will enjoy great outdoors fun.. I enjoy the outdoors with my dog everyday off leash and he likes the freedom
My dogtra 1202s allows me to control both my dogs when they are off lead playing with peace of mind!
Kiba is a german shepherd x husky. He would chase every bunny he saw, and those where a lot. He has a lot off stress on leash and its a lot less when off leash. The e collar is the reason i can walk my dog with less stress, off leash, with out the bunny's having to be scared. The e collar has made us trust each other so much more! His recall was realy good but never could win it from the bunny... he is also a big time swimmer. I found dogtra, and me and my dog found suc6, freedom, trust and new adventure's. We have the dogtra arc 3000.
Hi Tom, thank you so much for your enlightening videos! In my country, there's a lot of skepticism and misunderstanding about e-collars, making your content incredibly valuable. Thanks to your insights, I've successfully trained my border collie using an e-collar as a communication tool, not punishment. She gets visibly excited and happy every time I bring out the collar-she sniffs it, loves wearing it, and it seems to make her feel secure and safe. It's as if she knows that with it on, she won't lose track of me. Your videos have not only helped us but also challenged common misconceptions about using technology in training. Thank you for reaching audiences worldwide and help us having the same access to the information in order to contribute changing perspectives!
Well my 13 month old GSD has just got interested in chasing my cows. That's it, I am getting and e collar and will watch all your training vids. Thank you.
I never tougth that I will use an e collar one day... Because I didn't really know that there are different levels, and a conditioning phase. I tought that it was an coercitive tool. Correctly introduced and used it is the opposite: more freedom, more understanding and a happier dog. Thank you Tom, now I can walk my dog offleash 3 times per day serenely
Haha finding my own "working level" was hilarious and fun!!
haha I bet!
@@tomdavisofficial my husband was very confused the first few times. 🤭🤣 now I do it so often for clients he knows. Caught him even defending it against a naysayer! #win

i have a bichon that was starting to test me , just the beeping was enough so far to get him to change some of behaviors . just at day one but wow incredible
I love everything you said on this video but especially want to highlight two things you said that dog owners HAVE TO ALWAYS CONSIDER: First, you said dogs are animals and have animals instincts and tendencies. That is so important to remind yourself and I have to constantly. We start to see our dogs as our kids, almost as humans to be honest. Until that moment "dog" takes over and they bolt after an animal or a person on a skateboard, etc. The second was towards the middle when you mention always having your dog wear the collar because of the things YOU cannot control, I.e. other people! I've had more near incidents in my years of dog ownership because of other people and other dogs than my dogs doing something to someone or something else. It's unfortunate but so many people (especially kids) are just awful and have no sense of what is going on around them and put me and my dogs in contentious situations. Great video!
