I know somone will say it's cruelty but hear me out before making judgement. I am a lifelong upland bird hunter that has salvaged some dogs and owners partnerships. Some call it a shock collar,I prefer to call it an E-collar. Don't mess with the low end units,they are unpredictable and will ocasionaly deliver more or less stimulation (again I don't like to call it shock)than intended or fail outright. Tri-Tronics builds a good line at a reasonable cost. You should watch some instructional videos and read what professional have to say before starting with the device. In summery,you trick the dog into believing he is turning the collar on and off by his behavior. Never use it as punishment. The amount of stimulation is adjustable and the majority of animals require no more than a barly preciptal amount and a few are not good candidates because the least bit of stimulation upsets them and some others will not respond to any amount. I will repeat it once more,do not buy one before researching the subject. Reason being,you must be commited enough to first train the dog to commands such as come,sit,stay,no,kennel and most of all,good boy. I have worked with owners that were so happy with the dog after the preliminary sessions they opted not to use a collar after all. Duh! They just had never spent enough time with their dog and many animals are so eager to please,all you have to do is let them know what will make you happy. I'll bet some of you have dogs lay around looking worn out ontil you say"are you ready to pen some cows"at which point they litterly start dancing. Chances are he would fix your coffee if you asked. Of all things I have assisted with the single thing that has pleased more people is getting the dog to stop and/or come when told to. That alone may one day save his life if headed for a busy road or a frightened stranger with a club. I know that might be more than you asked about Nancy,but I felt some might find it helpful. I sincerely hope you and your pooch work it out soon. It sounds like both of you are stressed.
