General Training Tips
Getting started with your 280C

over an extended period. As the dog becomes procient at
these commands, the trainer can introduce distractions and
dierent 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
o 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
