Dog Training Collars

What you want to do with your dog determines
what collar you pick

Since there are many different kinds of dog training collars made by several different manufacturers, it is to the buyer's best interest to first do some research on finding the one best suited for their needs.

Some electronic training collars are more expensive but are sturdier and designed to last over a longer period of time. Others may be less expensive and are suited for short-term usage.

There are hunting training collars for the sportsman. The citronella training collar sprays a citrus oil towards the dog's nose. There are small dog collars and large dog collars. For containing dogs in the yard, an electronic fence training collar is ideal and they even come in a 2-dog training collar. A vibration collar is perfect for the hearing impaired or older dog.

The following paragraphs are written to give you some insight on choosing the right collar for your canine friend.

First determine what you want to do with your dog. Do you have any of these problems with your dog:

     •   Chasing cars, people or animals
     •   Destructive chewing
     •   Eating what's not allowed
     •   Jumping on furniture
     •   Jumping up on people
     •   Not responding when called
     •   Staying out of the trash or the neighbor's yard
     •   Unwanted barking
     •   Unwanted digging

There is an obedience training collar available to cure most of these problems. The difference in the electronic training collars comes from the quality of the collar, the range of the transmitter, and the choice of stimulation levels.

Please note that some people who want to cure their dog of barking may be looking at a remote training collar. However, In this situation, a no bark training collar is better suited for solving the problem. A remote collar requires you to be present to give the dog the proper stimulation when it barks.

Basic dog training or obedience training includes commands such as "Come", "Down", "Heel", "Sit", and "Stay". This usually requires an obedience training collar with a wider choice of stimulation levels that can be adjusted at the transmitter.

When training your dog, you need to be able to increase the level of stimulation in small increments until you find the level that gets your dog's attention but will not cause it to vocalize or overreact.
