help with training

Postby Hayes » Wed Nov 16, 2005 9:46 pm

i have a year and a half old female very energetic and has a ton of drive in her. she knows the basics well but will not fully obey unless i have the collar on her or if she is wearing the dummy collar. is there any suggestions that you have to brake her of this. she is collar smart and i have tried letting her where the dummy collar day and night. when the collars are on she is golden when they are off its half booty. and i dont wont her to half to wear the dummy collar all the time.

Most likely you have relied on the collar too much, and your basics not enough. Your dog will need to wear the collar anytime you expect compliance. Dont give a command you cant enforce, and that means no collar or out of reach, no commands. You dog will need to wear the collar, but you'll need to reley on other forms of corrections for the dog to understand you can/will correct the dog at any time. Start over from square one with obedience, on and off leash. Maintain a very high standard. Defiently dont put dog in situations you cant correct, a test or hunting without the collar defiently come to mind. This didnt happen overnight, and it wont be fixed overnight. What program are you using? travis

Welp, there ya go. If you chose a particular program to train your dog, and then added and delted as you saw fit, its only natrual you'll end up with volkswagen sized holes in the end result. travis
