E Collar Training HACKS For BEGINNERS

Just wanted to stop by and say how wonderful this dogtra #nobaddogs edition is. I've been working with my GSD on the mini educator and have had butt loads of issues and got this dogtra in the mail today and we had an hour training session. NIGHT AND DAY. If anyone is in the market for one I'd seriously skip the other brand and at least go for the dogtra and i'd specifically recommend tom's because of the strap and features. #NOBADDOGS

Thank you Tom! More people need to be educated that e-collars are not bad. I had my deaf Pitbull trained to both hand signals and an e-collar so that I could get his attention no matter what. He was the best dog I've ever owned and was the only one of my dogs I fully trusted off leash anywhere even though he was deaf. I only ever used a level 2 on him for recall and he responded every single time no matter what distractions there were, and he loved children so taking him to the park was a joy. I used vibration setting with hand signals for other commands when he was not next to me. I would totally train another dog with an e-collar and think nothing of it.

I got the 280C Tom Davis edition and started training with my dog when he was 8 mo. Now at 15 months, my dog is frequently off leash when we go hiking and is very reliable on his recall, even when the collar isn't on. Thank you for all you do, sir!

I just wanted to say how much of a breakthrough this dogtra e-collar has been for our reactive rescue dog. She really needed that extra tap on her shoulder to regain her focus and work through her insecurities. She already seems so much more calm and confident. Thank you SO MUCH Tom for all of your training videos. There truly are NO BAD DOGS! 🖤

With Zak George strongly pushing to have tools banned, it is fantastic to see more videos like this showing people exactly how they are ment to be used and how they should be conditioned. I feel many trainers like Zak only focus on the negative outcome due to wrongful use of a tool vice recognizing the good and seeing that dogs can still be happy and have a positive relationship. Positive reinforcement should always be the first thing. But a tool offers results that +R alone can't achieve as easily. Tools are not abusive unless you make it abusive. Train responsibly and have fun with your best friend. They don't care about the method so long as it's fair and they are enjoying their time.

I've learned so much from Tom videos, he is great. The e-collar is basically a communication device, my dog gets super exited when I show her the collar, she loves her collar and being off leash.

Such a good introduction for e-collar training! It's the MOST humane thing for a dog - they are finally allowed to BE a dog and have FREEDOMS when off leash trained with the e-collar. They get more exercise, naturally get taken out more often by their owners, and can get so many more steps in than dogs that are restricted to a leash. Love it.

Incredible video as always!!!! I’m loving the beginner videos!🫶

Excellent short but concise and very helpful training video. Thanks Tom!

LOOOOOOVE this explanation! I will definitely be referring clients on the fence to this video! One thing I use a lot that I heard you say in a video once is that the stim becomes conditioned to be a positive thing, so it's almost like remote control clicker training. Thank you for doing what you do! 💜💜💜

Just started e collar training with my Dutch shepherd. He is responding well so far and understanding the training! Super excited to have him off leash trained

love you a ton Tom! you've made our quality of life soooo much better thanks to you ❤🎉

Thanks so much Tom!

Excellent video. Sadly people opposed to Ecollars have no idea that they can be turned down and controlled. They only assume that they will only electrocute a dog. A lack of knowledge leads to more people getting that same lack of knowledge l thank you Tom for promoting proper training with the Ecollar. When my dogs see me get the ecollar out they get excited in a positive way and are ready to have fun. It is totally positive for them.

Great instruction. I have a 7 month Lab and she is on E collar on trails and doing great.

I haven't been able to afford this unit since the virus hit. Love your videos and philosophy! Thank you for sharing with us all.

Love Your Videos Tom! I’ve been watching you ever since I got my Doberman 2 years ago. I’ve been able to learn a lot from you and your team!. The amount of freedom I’ve been able to give my dog Jojo is amazing!.

Thank you so much for the wonderful post. Your how-to video is a game changer for me. Thank you so much.🤩

Great partnership between an awesome trainer and a great company. Hands down the best tool I ever used. Thanks for all the tips. Me and my pup definitely appreciate all the freedom because of your hard work.

Thank you, Tom for caring educational training.
