Like every industry, dog training has various pieces of equipment. There are harnesses, slip leads, flat collars, pull collars, prong collars, and ecollars to name a few.
All pieces of equipment work, if you know how to properly condition the dog to said equipment. Dogs think in pictures, and every piece of equipment represents a picture to your dog.
If you walk your dog on a harness and it pulls you around during the walks, then you’ve told your dog through your actions that it should pull you on the harness.
There are no quick fixes in dog training, and the same applies to equipment. Simply putting your dog a specific type of collar doesn’t fix anything.
If you want to use a specific piece of equipment like a slip lead or prong collar, then you must take the time to tell the dog what that piece of equipment means.
Our trainers at Dynamic Canine Solutions come to your house, and teach you how to paint pictures that your dog can easily understand. We define clear expectations around different collars and leashes, and take the time to communicate fluently with the canine.
Once the dog understands your expectations, and what the equipment means, the dog can find its advantage by enjoying life by those expectations. We pride ourselves on offering clients holistic, ethical, and professional training to address any behavioral issues in a way the dog understands.
