Corrective stimulus can be useful, even essential in effective dog training and
in most cases, need not be painful to your dog. Electronic Dog Training Collars.
High Tech Pet Collars provide stimulus that is divided into painless, moderate
and strong levels.
MILD CORRECTIVE STIMULUS
Provides a painless tactile sensation to
redirect unwanted behavior with a
positive command. For example, if your
dog is jumping, give a stern "Stop" command along
with a low level stimulus. Then follow with a "Sit"
command and the tone you have taught your dog to
associate with "Sit".
Steps to Stop Unwanted Behaviors:
1. Speak the "No" command
2. Apply LOW LEVEL stimulus.
3. Speak a positive command while playing
associated positive tone.
STRONG CORRECTIVE STIMULUS
The higher level correction should be
reserved for only those cases where
your dog's behavior threatens his
safety or the safety of others. Examples include
chasing cars or people. With proper use and
consistency you will find that use of the higher
level stimulus is rarely necessary and that the "Low
Level" stimulus provided on all our electronic
training collars is all that is necessary to deter
unwanted behavior.
MEDIUM CORRECTIVE STIMULUS
If your dog persists in the unwanted
behavior, you may follow up with a
medium level stimulus. This level is
strong enough to create discomfort. Then follow
up with a positive command. Always use the low
level stimulus first. In time even a stubborn dog
will learn to respond to the painless stimulus,
knowing that a stronger correction will follow.
