Dog Training Collar
You want a well trained, well mannered companion for a pet. We all do. To achieve one in the quickest manner possible you may be considering a dog shock collar. The manufacturers say that they provide a totally safe tool to assist you in training your dog.
But are they really safe and harmless to your pet? Before you decide to go this route in training you need to be aware that there are risks in using an electronic shock training collar.
A shock collar is primarily used to transmit small electric shocks to the dogs on which it is attached. It replaces the dog's original collar and the owner or trainer of the dog uses a transmitter to send signals to the shock collar. When the owner pushes a button the dog receives a shock to his neck from the collar.
There are three basic types of shock collars:
- the manual collar which requires a person to press a button to shock the dog,
- the bark activated shock collar and,
- the electronic fence type that shocks the dog when it approaches or crosses a given perimeter.
Human error and equipment malfunction can cause inhumane treatment. The collar may randomly shock your dog when it has done nothing. This not only needlessly hurts your dog but it also can undo the good that has been done and may confuse the dog.Â
The owner or trainer may not properly control the strength or length of a transmission and create a shock that is so intense that it harms the dog. Some dogs seem to tolerate electric shocks until they are strong enough to seriously hurt them.
Some dogs also quickly figure out that the collars are the cause of the pain and fight to not have the collar put on. This can lead to worse behavior than the problem you are trying to correct.
Before deciding to purchase a shock collar to train your dog, search YouTube for dog shock collars and see the harm they are capable of causing even on humans that are much larger than a dog.
With other, more humane methods of training your dog available, the risks associated with using a dog shock collar are not worth the possible benefits. With a little patience and research you can discover safe, effective and humane ways to train your dog.
