his bowl, you give him a drink or some food, etc.
The dog has adapted his behaviour to his environment. In this way, much unwanted
behaviour starts to pollute the owner’s environment. The electronic dog training
collar is the best solution for resolving problems with unwanted behaviour.
This explains its success. It responds perfectly to the aspirations of dog owners and
is a tremendous catalyst for harmony between the owner and the animal.

3.1 HUMANE
Dogs are not human beings. They live in packs. In a democracy the dog very quickly
becomes a dictator. You have to be the leader of the pack, the dominant one, your
dog must obey you!
3.2 PRO-ANIMAL
In most European countries it is prohibited from “causing suffering to an animal and/or
treating it cruelly”. These laws are interpreted differently in each country.
The ECMA organisation is a lobby of electronic dog collar manufacturers which works
at the highest political level to get products approved which meet strict standards
from a technological point of view, as well as with respect to the animal and com-
pliance with the law.
3.3 EFFECTIVE
Electronic collars are extremely effective. They quickly provide a durable solution to
problems which would have required long, costly, and sometimes ineffective, therapy
(see II, Point a). By using training collars, owners can control the freedom of their
dogs and ensure their safety. In a lot of cases, these tools help dog owners to pre-
serve the environment and the peace and quiet of their neighbours.

4.1 Correction stimulation (stimulation)
If the dog, after being strongly distracted, ignores a known command, a sufficient
stimulation must bring him back under control. A correction must always be inflicted
immediately, or at the very least, within 2 seconds following the disobedience.
At the start, we advise you to use the collar and a lead (the lead makes the dog obey
to remove the stimulation). After a certain amount of training, the electronic collar
becomes an invisible lead.
