General Training Tips

Getting started with your 200C

Your dog must know some very basic obedience commands 

before beginning training with the 200C. A dog learns by 

first being shown a command, followed by lots of repetition 

over an extended period. As the dog becomes proficient at 

these commands, the trainer can introduce distractions and 

different locations to strengthen them. Throw in the correct 

amount of positive and negative reinforcement and you 

should end up with a well-mannered dog.

Obedience training on the leash

Your dog must fully understand the obedience commands 

(sit, stay, here, heel and kennel) before using the e-collar 

for reinforcement of these commands. A leash attached 

to a standard collar is used to "teach" the dog the basic 

obedience commands (here, heel, sit, and stay). A tug on the 

leash/collar is used to reinforce the command. When the dog 

complies with the command, use positive reinforcement/

praise. Once the dog understands these commands, the 

e-collar can be used to reinforce them.

Beginning e-collar training

When you feel your dog understands the obedience 

commands on the leash we can now start with the electric 

collar training. With the dog on the leash wearing the 

electric collar continue with your obedience drills. Light 

stimulation (nick or constant) is going to be applied as a 

command is given, the stimulation is removed as the dog 

complies. Through repetition, a dog learns to turn off the 

light stimulation by performing the command. 
E-collar training is another form of negative reinforcement, 

similar to the leash and standard collar training. When the
