If used correctly, e-collar training can be an extremely useful tool for both rehabilitation of behavioural issues, as well as recall training. I have rehabilitated even some of the most traumatized rescues using e-collars. These dogs have gone from being scared and insecure, to happy and confident pups. E-collar training is very specialized and should ALWAYS be done with a professional who knows what they are doing. I will only work with specific e-collar companies for the sake of reliability. If you don’t already have an e-collar, and you are interested in getting one, I am a re-seller for E-collar Technologies , and Dogtra which are the brands I recommend. I will not sell e-collars to anyone without having a session with them first. You can learn more about e-collar training here , or book a free 15 minute phone consultation so you can discuss your options over the phone with Kristina first.
