The remote collar is a powerful tool and you should ALWAYS introduced by a professional.
Where can I find a professional in Minnesota?
@@susanmercurio1060 I think Neuman K9 Academy does ecollar work, and Sit Means Sit does attention based training with the ecollar.
Would this be the model for training a hyper over stim strong Lab mix. Pinch isnt making a mental connection she blows threshold and is a bit too strong for me. Training her for adoption
My dog is going after cows would a remote collar help with this, he got trampled by a cow 2 weeks ago and keeps going after them. They are free rage on my 40 acres so I really need help with his new obsession with the cows.
How do I find a pink one ? Amazon only had black
hey man, thanks so much! My relationship with my dog has gotten much better thanks to your videos.
This is a service to the public. Thank you SO MUCH for this, can't agree enough to go under the direction of a professional trainer to teach you how to teach your dog on one of these tools. 🐾💕
Thank you so much Tom!! I cant wait to see more videos geared towards using the collar!
I LOOOVE your channel!!! I have been binge watching your content for a week now. I’ve tried other techniques from other dog trainers on TH-cam but yours are the only ones that have worked with my GSD. I love that your content is practical, it makes sense and can be used in everyday life. And your explanations are FANTASTIC! I also love how thankful you are, I’ve never seen a TH-camr thank their subscribers as much as you do. Thank you for everything you do for us fellow dog lovers!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I appreciate you going into detail about both of these collars, thank you
We love having our E collar for Ms Ava and she loves it as well. Thank you for your training on the PROPER use of an E Collar
My dogs LOVE theirs
I just got my no bad dogs hat and hoodie I can’t wait to get more form your dog is so adorable 😍
Thank you so much for explaining the remote ecollar. I appreciate it.
Just in time! I need a new e-collar!! Thank you Tom! 💙🐾
I have a great dog trainer here in Australia and she recommends the same collar. Going to give the collar a go, under supervision, of course. My dog has very good recall, but would like to fine tune some behaviours off lead and have it for the “just in case”........kangaroos!
Lol Hawke was just rolling around and being a goofball I love it he so cute. Very informative video
Thanks for the video tom and great info!
appreciate the helpful Info!
Thank you for the discount code!!! Just bought the dogtra 280c
Welcome back Tom! I'm wearing my No Bad Dogs hoodie today :)
I use the mini educator with my dog. It has been a game changer for my Lab! He has so much freedom and I’m still able to have complete control of him when he’s completely off leash. Yesterday I was able to call him off from chasing a squirrel! It has changed his life in a wonderful way!
@@kennynoNope it has 100 levels. But the goal is to train on low levels. Most dogs are trained on a 5-10
@@kennynoNope you would look into getting help from a professional trainer.
HI I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND WHAT YOU DO!!
Thanks for the input Tom
Thanks for watching!
i just wanna say thank you i got a garmin ecollar for my boy and it was having to but turned out alot because of connection problems and once i found out it worked closer to the side of the neck or back of it its now at a 3 and works amazing
Happy to see you again. Glad it was just a computer thing and not a health thing.
Personally I use the sport dog myself. It’s small lightweight and has amazing battery life. I’ve had mine for 7 years and it is still holding up just fine
Thank you for this video!
Like the hair! Love the info!
Great video, lots of info 😊
Thanks Lisa!!
dogtra will ALWAYS be my #1
I love the Dogtra Edge for my 3 dogs. One remote for all three is very handy.
I use the arc and love it!
A professional trainer recommended a Dogtra 1900S when I adopted an adult cane corso from a kill shelter. Although it turned out I didn’t really need it for her (and the trainer wasn’t as well versed as Tom on it’s theory and applications), I have had it for 5 years now and I’m learning to use it the proper way on my 9 month GSD watching Tom’s videos. Thank you Tom!
Thanks for the info! I have an adult great Dane and was looking for a collar with enough strength for dogs that size. I worked with e collars years ago for our hunting dogs, labs and Chesapeakes, and I believe they are a great tool if used appropriately. I was though, looking for something reliable for dogs with that extra large size and power if they get startled or distracted and decide to use it. Also I really like the seatbelt analogy. Because my dog is huge it's really more about how others respond to her more than her being the dog she is. She is a great dog but she can get to be a bit overbearing if she gets worked up due to people's reaction to her intimidating look. A little nick is all it takes to snap her back 99% of the time but its also so much less stressful for me to know that if needed I have control of her without her hurting me or anyone else. Really appreciate your input! Thanks again!!!!
My grandmother and the many other grannies had hair that same colour back in the 60s.
So good to see where to put collar
Great video!
Loving this new to the channel 😎🙏
Love my ARC. Looks super great on my dog and is pretty low profile :D
We love it 2!! Thanks for watching!
Super helpful!
Hi Tom. Hope you see this. We have been watching your videos since first got our puppy, female German Shepherd. She is now 13 months. Her obedience and heel walking training has been not bad, 8/10, we constantly working on it cause it is a learning process for us and the dog. But over the past few months, she developed this excited/anxious yelping bark when first get out of the car, or at a new place where she expects exciting or scary (Vet) things to happen. Sowe have tried different methods so far, like leave it (she understands the command) then sharp ah-ah if she doesn't stop , reward the quiet moment. But the problem is when she is in the zone yelping barking, it's high pitched n constant, it's hard to find a gap till she finishes. Also sometimes I feel like the sharp ah-ah may have made her feel like she got answered?? So we really don't know if we are doing the right things. We have got different responses from different trainers, which made us more confusing. Some say not to respond to the negative behaviour, some say we need to let the dog know that the unwanted behaviour is not to be encouraged so we need to let the dog know that. If you see this in your busy schedule, please reply, we would really appreciate your help. Thank you.
Have a good day.
Finally! Upstate Canine Academy! Long time no see
I know!!! Sorry
Right! I got worried something happened. Glad to see your back and thanks for the e-collar advice. Thinking our Johnny Walker needs an e-collar since he’s still having out of control moments and the prong has actually pinched him where the chain slides 😖68lbs of pitbull jumping up and spinning is pretty crazy 🙃
Would you be doing a video on how you use the remote collar in your off leash training? I've seen a couple different methods from other trainers. What do you recommend?
Hey Tom! What video camera model do you use? I love the quality of the outdoor shots!
My friend went to a trainer and put his frenchie on the collar. Cat appeared, he gave the dog a vibration and she got a lil’ startled then continued to chase a cat and she got zapped once on a lower setting , she never got zapped since and now she’s really cool during their travels, she still gets the vibrations sometimes.
I am so excited to see a video I have missed you
Missed you guys too!
@@tomdavisofficial missed you for sure!! Glad you got the new computer and you're baaaaacccckkkk!! ❤🙏
I have a dog Tara day love it what a game changer I hardly have to use it but it is on at all times outside
Yes!! Thanks Sharon
Could you talk more about the 1900s one. I’m thinking on getting that one because I like how strong it is. And that is the most popular large breed E-Collar.
Awesome stuff! Got a Dogtra IQ that my trainer suggested for my GSD. :D
Nice!!! 🙏🏻
New computer goes along with the new hair???? Nice.!!!! ¡! ♥️😁
I’m still on the fence about using a e-collar on my 9 month old golden. She has a hard time with off leash recall. Your videos are so helpful and informative so thank you.
❤️❤️❤️
I introduced my lab to an e-collar when she was about 5ish months old (she is now 5 years old). When she hears me turn her collar on she bounces around like crazy with excitement. We've used several brands (sport dog, Garmin, etc.). I've only had a bad experience with the Sport Dog because they claim that they are water proof and since my dog is a lab it is ALMOST impossible to keep her out of water. The first collar died after 2 years so I figured get a new one. Well that one lasted MAYBE 6 months and we were out on a sandbar using a ball launcher into the water. All of a sudden she comes out of the water and runs towards me and then starts yelping and tail between the legs. I immediately took both her normal collar and e-collar off. While I was touching the e-collar I felt it constantly pulsing at what felt like the highest setting. I tried turning it off and it wouldn't. I went and bought the Garmin Pro model because it has two LED's on the side for a light (my lab is black and we go for walks at night on the sandbars and trails) so those LED's make it nice for me to see her. I've replaced the battery once in the collar in the last 3 years. I love it.
Like Tom says its all about how you approach it. If you are only using it in the wrong way your pet will be afraid of it. I never use it for the pulse or nicking feature vibrate and tone is it. I've trained her that tone means that's far enough away and vibrate means return to heal. Don't be afraid or worried if you do things right the way Tom and Larry Krohn train you will have a very happy and healthy puppy who will burn off excess energy with their new found freedom.
I thought the same thing but so worth it he goes to the box I keep his collar in and sits because he knows it is playtime and work time he has come along way with the dog tra arc a big game changer for our relationship
Darren Becker you're a much better person than me. If a product that was advertised as being waterproof malfunctioned and shocked the crap out of my dog I probably would have come completely unglued.
@@samueldeter9735 ya I wasn’t pleased to put it nicely! Thus the reason why I’m no longer using that brand nor do I recommend it. It’s Garmin or Dogtra.
Hi Tom,
Thank you so much for your videos. I get so much out of them. I have had an adopted German Shepherd with 3 paws. He's very reactive but we work on it every day and we see many improvements. Now we want to buy a Dogtra but are hesitating about 2 models.
The ARC models look the most comfortable for him because of the shape but have a less heavy pager. The 280c I think is less comfortable in shape (correct me if I am wrong) but has a stronger pager. My dog is fairly sensitive to his neck for his prong, do you think the ARC is the best choice for him? He often lies down and I don't want the e collar in his way but I also want him to respond to the pager.
Thanks again for all you do. Because of your knowledge I've been able to not only help my own dog but also help several other dogs and dog owners just by teaching them some basic but important stuff.
You are awesome!
Thanks, Max.
Is there a specific reason you dont use or recommend the mini educator anymore? I like that its expandable to 2 dogs and the idea of the "boost" button.
I love your vids..have helped me so much with my 9 month old Boxer.thank you
Thanks again Amber!
I've used a Dogtra 1900s for a couple years with my 90lb. Shepherd. By just puting it on her she knows she going to have fun and I get a great response from her.
Thx Tom for a great video.
👍😎🐺🐾
How do you like the 1900s? I’m thinking on getting that one.
@@sashaadair480 Hey, overall I like it...I swapped out the stiff "plastic"collar for a more flexable rubber one. The reciever is on the big side but I have a big dog. I ordered longer contact points since she is a plush coated Shiloh Shepherd. Good luck👍😎
@@ianmckenzie5303 yeah! I also have a German Shepherd too. What do you like about the 1900s?
@@sashaadair480 I can't speak about other devices but 1900s is tough and waterproof...This is the 1st ecollar I've owned but once my dog was trained in obediance it just made life so much easier....she is very high drive and you can't take drive out of a dog only control it. That is the main reason I bought the ecollar. It allows me to control that dirve from 200m. away. Hope that answers you questions
@@ianmckenzie5303 okay awesome!! What level do you normally have it on?
I just bought the 280c! Thanks for the review!
Does the 280c have good power?
@@kennynoNope yes it does
This is a great channel to watch ! I recently adopted a dog , he's a German shepherd pitbull mix! I watched many videos of dog trainers on how to do certain things with your dogs . This channel is the best by far!
Hi. I love your video. I bought a mini educator but I think your approach and explanation is soooo much better. I have a greyhound that is very stubborn, she stops when she wants to stop , stops bc she doesn’t want to go down a certain block etc. where I used to live she had a pack that would run and play on the beach. I moved and the dog beach I go to is secluded but she found the exit twice and I panicked. I bought the ecollar for safety. Sometimes she goes bonkers in a second if she sees something. How do I prevent this with the collar? When would u use the shock function? I have not used this at the beach yet until I learn how to use it better and my dog understands also. What are your suggestions for a greyhound ? Have u ever used an e collar on a greyhound ?
excellent video, thank you - they are very helpful! One questions, where can I find the elastic bungie cord for the e collar. I don't see it in your Amazon list. Thanks!
Lmao at 8:13. Classic Malinois always wanting to munch on their owners. Great video btw! Hope to see more on e-collars!
Haha!
So I understand you have very good engagement and behaviors with your dogs so you need to use the units very infrequently. Does that ever become a problem if you go too long without needing to use a correction on the remote collar? Do dogs have to wipe off the cobwebs to understand it again or ever regress with the collar losing it's effectiveness / how do you ensure that doesn't happen?
My dog is off leashed trained already. I have a cheap Amazon collar but need a new one! I want something cheap and better than the one I have now! I have a Karelian Bear dog we just moved and now she doesn’t care about the collar! I’m thinking about getting the Dogtra!
Hey love your videos. What do you recommend for a dog that barks? Also I’ve tried a prong for my dog on his walks because he HATES his harness but the prong pisses him off. What am I doing wrong? He’s a golden retriever. Thank you!!!
What do you think about the Dogtra Mini for small dogs?
Just received my dogtra arc and am so excited to use it and am binge watching your vids to learn! Just wondering is it ok if i use the ecollar as a normal collar and attach the lead to it?
No. E collar sits separate up behind the dogs ears.
Hey, have you see a training collar that also works with a e fence?
Trying to find the link for the bungee you’re using. Can’t find it. Can you help? Also, The new Arc Hands Free Plus. Any input on that one?
I've been using a different brand but just ordered the Dogtra ARC Hands Free Plus, we have a 4 month old puppy and being able to use the Square with the single button where two of us can work the dog seemed like a better option than the compact model.
Shouldn’t be using a ecollar on a dog under 6 months
@@TR-ux1kudepends on the dog
I use the mini educator for my dogs when we hike
Nice!
can you do a video on how to get into training with e collar
Will the bungie collar work with an Educator 300? I'm happy with the Educator, but this would be so much easier to put the collar on. (My dog actually sticks his head in the collar, so he really likes it! It has been a life-saver with this strong border collie from cattle herding stock.)
Woohoo new video!!
And 1st! 😆
Yeah!!
Would you recommend a separate remote per dog or one remote would be fine for 2 dog collars being used at the same time
What collar do u recommend for a unsocialized leash reactive Pomeranian 😁 its my moms dog. My chihuahua is very well behaved. My older mother 78...doesnt believe in dog training.😁 becuz my dad passed last year and was in charge of walking bear....he ended up stuck in the house/backyard for 6 months...untill I realized he wasnt being walked. Now I go every day and walk him. He acts like a snarling rottie untill he reaches the stranger dog. If the dog is calm he relaxes does his sniffs and moves on. But untrained humans are usually scared and run off with their dogs. I've tried everything on walks. Now trying the vibrate collar. Since the dog doesnt live with me and never listens to my mom...imagine that... Can I train him with the collar just for walks with me and my dog?
Just started the video but I've seen a few questions get answered so I'll shoot first and see if you answer in the video later
Will this work for a small dog? I have two chihuahua mixes, so they're a bit bigger than other chihuahuas I've seen, ones just below and the other is just above 10 pounds, if it's designed a bit bigger. Do you have any recommendations? I've just started researching and Amazon is where I started, but... it's Amazon, they've been hit or miss for me
Thanks Tom, I’ve been watching your tutorials to get started on this - any tips on getting consistent stim, as I’m struggling a little with that?
Depending on your dog's coat you might want to change your contact points. Also, brushing your dog's neck before you put the collar on can help.
@@jeanrenelatraille6421 Thank you Jean, he’s a border collie cross so the fur is quite long, smooth and thick around his neck. I got a bungee-type elastic collar since posting, which has helped, and will try brushing him out for sure.
@@ruthacheson8604 You are welcome. Happy training.
I've got a high-drive, easily aroused Dutch/pit 100-lb mix who is responding very well to his e-collar training BUT he can easily blow through the one I'm using if he's on the chase. I have 3 unfenced acres I camp on and need a more reliable collar. He knows his commands and responds quickly but I need to know he'll call off every time a golf cart or 4-wheeler goes by. I don't need him chasing them or deer or whatever. I also need him to call off bears and wild pigs. The one I'm using is fine for a "regular" dog but I need distance and enough power. Dogra seems to be best but which one for our needs? He's got a pretty good temperament but sometimes.....I love your channel btw!
Most of the time, a Dogtra or a collar from EcollarTechnologies that is fitted properly will deliver a stimulation sufficient for any dog. Quite often the issue is how the collar is fitted or which contact points people are using. If you are confident that your collar is fitted properly and you have the correct contact points then you could try to get the Boss from EcollarTechnologies. I am sure that Dogtra also has something similar but I am less familiar with Dogtra. Cheers.
I need one for my 15 lb poodle mix and I’m looking for one that’s not huge or heavy on his skinny little neck. I did try an inexpensive one (they seem to be the only ones who have small-ish ones (though still not small enough, imho) but their stimulations are too strong even on the lowest setting. The vibration mode also freaked my dog out. So what can I use?
What's the life expectancy of these products? Obviously, being a quality product, I'm not expecting it to go out after a couple years. Is it a "lifetime" product, or being technology would it wear out and need replaced eventually?
My Dogtra 1900s is on the way for my Dutch Shepherd, Mina. Her recall off leash is pretty good for nine months but her coprophagia is HORRENDOUS and I really hope that the ecollar will disrupt the behavior
My dog has great recall, he just doesn't like other dogs. He was fine when he was younger but it seems like in his old age he loses patience easily and snaps on them. He shows stalking signals towards the puppies I have and I have stopped him before he gets into that state of mind, but I don't know if i should train him to avoid the puppies when he sees them, or force him to socialize when there are new dogs around
Looking for the link for the bungee for the collar did not see in your links? Thanks Great Videos
Same here
I have an excitable pitbull who can be stubborn. Which would you suggest for him. When he gets excited it's like he loses his hearing and doesn't listen.
Hey just looked through your Amazon and the bungee isn't listed (or I'm blind lol) ... btw as far as No Bad Dog merch that bungee would be a really good idea. I see you using it A LOT. Other than that I wanted to ask if you've ever worked with an American Tundra Shepherd? I know you aren't a hybrid/wolfdog fan for pets/family members and it goes back and forth with people if these are hybrid/wolfdogs or not. Personally I find them to be a completely amazing breed.
Oh in case you need a lead on where to read about the breed: atsfoundation.com/
Hi Tom Is there is a way to unlock 10 second safety features of stimulation mini educator I have a ft 330
Old video but I need help. Suffered from an accident during brand new puppy training(Shepard). He’s now 4months old and family is doing what they can but they loose control when trying to excercise dog off leash out back. Nicer weather so more steet activity. Can an E collar save us from those surprizes? If so, how to train for that? We have normal ‘come’ but not distracted ‘come’!
I’m trying to find the bungee collar, but it’s not on your Amazon list. Can you post a link so I can buy the correct one?
Wht exactly is the name of the first two collars u said? You said it so fast I couldn’t understand you so please tell me again what the names of those two colors were so I can order one because my dog is out of control
hey tom! I’ve been waiting for months to buy a prong collar and safety clip from your website but you’ve been sold out for months! Any chance you would know when you’ll be back in stock? I don’t want to buy anywhere else as there’s lots of fakes out there I hear. Please help
I have a e collar petspy that lasted for almost 1 year and a half but it has lost its connection range and I want to find a good one that lasts quite a long time and I read some of the reviews for the doctra arc and I see problems that it doesn’t charge so I’m in between so I need help.
I want the arc so bad for my Service dog in training there so expensive though so the Mini iq work for bigger dogs because it says it’s for little dogs ? And I have a 65 lb 6 month old shepwililer I have used Amazon brands in my other dog and works great but she does have a high prey drive and that one does not phase her lol
Can anyone please tell me if the arc would fit a 16lb Jack Russell with an 11.5" neck properly? I'm getting conflicting information from different sources. I was told by Dogtra to get the IQ Plus but I want something with a digital display and less bulky. I'm torn between the Arc and the 280c. I currently use a Petspy unit that has failed as it doesn't seem to like the snow much.
What is the color of your malinois? Its beautiful
Where can we buy the bungee collar that Tom uses on the 280C?
Hey Tom!! Anyway we can schedule a session!!
OK can someone tell me how this works? I have researched the E 300 mini Educator. From what I have seen is you need to have it on very tight. So how is this one different without losing contact to the skin. I would much prefer this, versus TIGHT? Someone please help me
My dog is a mutt. I believe he has pit bull or Rottweiler in him, maybe some boxer. Anyways he’s very reactive to people and dogs. Recently he has escaped from his harness and gone after neighborhood dogs. I am mortified. I’ve been really thinking of getting the e collar but I’m afraid that since he doesn’t know how to lay down or stay on command that he isn’t ready. I’m honestly at a loss. He’s 2 years old and usually only sits for me if I have treats or a toy. If we are outside, forget it. He intentionally doesn’t listen to me. He doesn’t follow my lead on leash or come when I call his name. He is a strong (75lb) puller. I want to do the e collar because I feel like it’s my last hope and I’m watching all of your videos and I want to implement your training tools. I just need to know if an e collar would even work for me at this point. ):
Whats your opinion on SportDog brand?
Where can you buy the bungie attachment?
Is the dog sport collar a good one ?
Are these vibration only type training collars or include sound stimulus ? Also can you explain what the "NIC" mode is when button is held down?
I got a dogtra IQ and tested it out on myself. the nic is a 1/10 sec stim, whether or not you hold it down it only taps once. continuous is a continuous stim for as long as you hold the button down, up to 12 seconds.
its difficult (for me) to feel the NIC on lower levels, so I usually tap the continuous on my dog. I'd probably use the nic if I ever had to turn the collar up past 25-30.
is the 200c recommended as well.
A question and thank you but we have an electric collar fence GSD only fights it until the auto stops which means he could bolt but we have 3 acres of woven fenced in place. He just fights the collar limits like it is the enemy. Other dog no problem she just all is good. a suggestion? Back up start again?
From what I understand, you have an electric fence and your dog probably doesn't understand why they are getting shocked. An electric fence doesnt really teach a dog anything, except to either be afraid and/or fight the invisible attacker. I can imagine your dog might be very frustrated because it doesn't understand that a boundary is not to be crossed. Have you tried teaching your dog the boundaries of the yard? Do you have an e-collar in addition to the electric fence? When Tom uses his e-collar, it is used to communicate and show what the dog is supposed to do, it is aversive but it is not a strong shocking punishment like an electric fence could be
@Upstate Canine Academy
Can you give me some tips on how I can stop my chihuahua from being aggressive to strangers? He is very food motivated but when strangers are near buy even food can’t attract him. What are some ways of calming down this behaviour without using a prong collar?
Ecollar and use the vibrate mode.. shake a bottle full of rocks... Something to disrupt the behaviour and any time he doesn't react reward him. Also see where his comfort zone is (when he's still able to focus on food with a person around) then slowly work outside his comfort zone.
What would you recommend for huskies? I have three 1 yo males smh
