Dog training question.

We use a collar on our pits. It’s not a “shock” collar though. It’s like that stimulating thing a human would use on a muscle. We took our dogs to a training program that trains police K-9’s and that’s all they use. Like stated though you actually need to be trained how to use the collar and down the road they won’t need the collar. As soon as that collar goes on they know heal, off, break, sit, down etc. etc.... then know when I stop walking that they are to sit right next to me on my left in heal position. its amazing. If I remember when I get home I’ll find what collars they are.

Make sure you train them to always be on your left or right. It keeps things consistent. If I step first with my left foot it means we are going and the dog is to walk with me on my left in heal position. If I step first with my right foot they know they are to stay. If I stay consistent with trading they are pretty damn good with it. My older one completed the good canine citizen class and passed.
