How do you suggest I use the shock collar? I don't want to mess him up. I was thinking that when he starts the whining and bawling and pulling to say "Quit" at the same time I zap him. Am I correct on this thinking? If not please explain.
Well unless you use "quit" for everything. example dogs jumping on people you say quit, dogs trashin you yell quit. Just saying if a dogs doing wrong its much easyer for them to accociate one word with bad behavior. I usually stick with NO or EEHHH... The last ones more flexable. Anyway when useing the collar the idea is to start at the lowest setting that you can tell the dog feels it and that can be as much as seeing the ears go back. When the dog does the bad behavior you say your command and hit your button once. Timming is the most important thing. It must be immediately following your command. Do it a couple times then bump it up a notch untill the dog stops the behavior. Increase the strength untill the dog stops the barking and pulling. you can also slap the back with the lead if theyre pulling. Sounds like your holding back a good dog but that just my oppinion. Good luck Man.
