Advanced collar training

[Buckeye Bob]

I have a 1 year old female that I am real high on but.... she had a mistake breeding at 7 months and I had not spent much time with her up to that point. She is just coming off pups and is wild in the field. I need to collar break her but have not had much success in the past with older dogs. Any experienced suggestions?

I break them to a lead. Then I go to a pinch collar. Use it to teach them the basics, sit, stay, heal, come ect... I then switch to the e-collar and use the tone with the comand, if they dont obey I tap them on the lowest setting like I would with a light snap of the pinch collar. In a couple of days she will be doing just fine.

I would just try to use a check cord it has worked a lot for us over the years

Shes pleanty young to trian her anything you would like that you have already done with other dogs. like said before start on lead with a leash or check cord and work slow shell have no problems coming along.

I agree with other posters here. I teach all of mine on the check cord first. Then once they have the come command down pat , I use it in conjunction with the e collar. Just be patient. It doesnt matter how old the dog is they will catch on pretty quick. Most common mistake I see is people not teaching the dog the come command and going out in woods with the ecollar , shocking the dog and wondering why he took off in another direction.

Long Check Cord with E collar Works for us too Have trained a 4 year old lab as well as a 2 year old beagle with the check cord method..We use a good Enticer as well Like chunks of HOT DOG!! Never Known a beagle that wouldnt respond to food!!
