After your dog understands the basic obedience commands, you are ready to
begin more specific behavioral training with your BigLeash™ Remote Trainer. All
of the general and obedience training basics also apply to Behavioral Training.
Behavioral Training Basics
The Basics of General "Avoidance" Behavioral Training
I
When correcting your dog's behavior, you must take into consideration that
•
not all activities, such as barking, should be eliminated completely. The
goal of your training should be to control problem behavior rather than to
eliminate normal and acceptable aspects of the same behavior.
Remember that your dog will not automatically understand what to do
•
when he receives a correction from the remote trainer. For training to be
effective, you must use the remote trainer appropriately.
Some dogs will learn quickly even with a very low correction level; others
•
may need higher levels to get their full attention. For most dogs and most
behaviors, we recommend beginning with a low level before trying
incrementally higher levels.
"
We recommend using the lowest effective correction level.
"Avoidance training" is teaching your dog to associate the correction with
•
the problem behavior and helping him learn that in order to avoid the
correction he must stop the behavior.
It is best to minimize your association with giving the correction. Do not
•
make it obvious that the transmitter is associated with the correction.
The use of verbal commands and/or audible alerts varies with the training
•
situation and the training method. In some training situations, you may
want your dog to associate the behavior only with the correction with no
verbal command or audible warning. In other situations, a verbal
command and/or audible warning may be appropriate.
Do not praise or comfort your dog after giving him a correction.
•
Consistency and the timing of the correction are both very important.

Field Trial Training and Hunting/Sporting Dogs
The BigLeash™ Remote Trainer is appropriate for Field Trial Training and hunting/
sporting dogs as well as companion pets. This Owner's Guide provides only
general training examples for common behaviors. There are many books and
online guides which cover topics more specific to Field Trial Training and
hunting/sporting dog training. Advice and assistance from a professional dog
trainer familiar with remote trainers may also be helpful.
