GENERAL TRAINING TIPS

Getting Started With Your 2700T&B
Your dog must know some basic obedience commands
before beginning training with the 2700T&B. A dog
learns by first being shown a command, followed by
lots of repetition over an extended period. As the dog
becomes proficient at these commands, the trainer
can introduce distractions and different locations to
strengthen them.
Obedience Training on the Leash
Your dog must fully understand the obedience
commands (sit, stay, here, heel, and kennel) before using
the e-collar for reinforcement of these commands. A
leash attached to a standard collar is used to "teach" the
dog the basic obedience commands (here, heel, sit, and
stay). A tug on the leash/collar is used to reinforce the
command. When the dog complies with the command,
use positive reinforcement/praise. Once the dog
understands these commands, the e-collar can be used
to reinforce them.
Beginning E-Collar Training
When you feel your dog understands the obedience
commands on the leash we can now start with the
e-collar training. With the dog on the leash and wearing
the e-collar, continue with your obedience drills. Apply
light stimulation (Nick or Constant) when a command
is given; the stimulation can be removed as the dog
complies. Through repetition, the dog learns to perform
the command.
