Dog Training Article: The Facts About Modern Electronic Training Devices

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

“We recognize that older products were often unreliable and difficult to use humanely. But we feel that new technology employed by responsible manufacturers has led to products that can be and are being used safely and effectively to preserve the safety and well-being of many dogs and strengthen the bond with their human companions.”

Today’s technology is surprisingly subtle, more effective

In the 30 years since the first “shock collars” became widely available in the United States, these increasingly popular behavioral training products have been refined to produce more effective results in ways that have proven not only to be humane, but also—in fact—gentle.

While the technology behind modern electronic training devices has come a long way, some veterinarians and consumers harbor misconceptions about these products and their effect on dogs based upon their impressions of older, crudely designed devices. To the contrary, clinical studies in recent years offer conclusive evidence that the proper use of modern electronic training devices does not lead to adverse physiological effects on dogs.

This paper presents case studies, conclusions and informed opinions on risks versus benefits from researchers at the Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine, international canine behavior experts, practicing veterinarians, animal welfare organizations, professional dog trainers, sport dog enthusiasts and others who have tested and observed the effects of electronic training devices on dogs in shelters and laboratories, on farms and in other real-world settings.

As you will gather from reviewing the current literature, a wide range of credible experts believe that the average dog owner with basic knowledge of training techniques can effectively and humanely use electronic training devices for behavioral modification, obedience training and containment needs.

This paper dispels a number of myths about electronic training devices. As evidence of the evolving body of knowledge about today’s technology, conclusions about the safety and effectiveness of modern electronic training devices are supported by The Humane Society of the United States, The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and the International Association of Canine Professionals, among others.

Because dog owners frequently ask veterinarians how to address common behavioral issues, professionals have an opportunity to impart credible, proactive and vital information that can greatly increase the likelihood of a dog’s acceptance into the family. This paper’s purpose is to help you become more familiar with credible research into and objective facts about today’s products so as to be conversant when discussing behavioral solutions with dog owners.

Myths About Electronic Training Devices

Evidence exists that almost all veterinarians are concerned about the alarming rise in shelter populations and euthanasia statistics—many of which are attributable to behavioral issues. Because veterinarians are in a unique and credible position to proactively educate dog owners about behavioral health, it is helpful to be aware of the latest tools that dog owners may employ to help their pets succeed as valued and permanent members of the family.

This paper will dispel many myths about electronic training devices, including that:

  • They make dogs aggressive;

Or, conversely . . .

  • . . . The devices only work on aggressive dogs
  • They “shock” the dog
  • Electronic collars can cause burns
  • Dog owners have to be … [read the full article for FREE, simply register for our newsletter below to gain instant access!]

Remote Dog Training Collars- linking food

Saturday, December 5th, 2009



Believe it or not, there are actually dog trainers out there that believe that there is no way that a remote dog training collar could ever have any sort of positive connotation.
Now I know that in this day and age of technology, that’s pretty hard to believe that those people still exist. Especially when you consider the fact that I wrote an article on it 10 years ago, so it’s not like Sit Means Sit dog training just started this yesterday.

It’s easy to understand though how someone not familiar with us, and has never been a client or has never even been around a successful remote dog training
program such as ours could think such a thing. Then again, that’s why Sit Means Sit is always on the cutting edge of training. So can a remote be linked with food?
Of course, and like always we will show you.

Here is another example with a 3 1/2 month old puppy.
