For Those Who Use E-collars

[shekhina]

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

SB, interesting to get your experience with the collar so far. The dog I want to use it on also has a crazy level of prey drive and just has no focus...well he has focus, just not on the commands I'm trying to give!

I would love for him to experience more out of life, being off lead and doing the fun stuff with dog training, such as fly ball and agility, but he cannot be trusted when not on a lead.

My partner and I are looking to definitely get a good collar as soon as we can afford one. It will be well worth the investment to give my present and future dogs much more freedom.

Like others have said - they are not the be all and end all - they are just a tool to help with training.. it would be advisable to talk to a professional on their use..

as for selection - The DT Systems Micro iDTZ is a awesome device DT SYSTEMS Website

Thanks bigdogg

I have already spoken with someone and I believe this is the way to go with this particular dog, and if it's useful in the future for other dogs all well and good. I will be getting the manual from K9 Force that has been spoken of in this thread as well.
