Do you have a dog that's so nice to other people? This can be so bad (or good, since other people think it's cute) that your dog keeps running away from you. It can be so annoying that the simple act of visiting your garden or backyard with your dog ends up with the dog on a leash. If this scenario is all too familiar, if you have a dog that tends to ignore your calls just so it could run after or bark at other people and other pets, then you need get a remote dog training collar.
Some background on the subject
Some dog owners wish they could make their dogs heed their call at the click of a button, like using the remote control for your television. With a remote dog collar, that wish can actually come true. Before the idea of using transmitters and receivers for dog training came to be, obedience training for dogs was hard work and time consuming. One had to expose one's dog to a situation where the problem behavior could be manifested, and then one had to punish the dog right after. Naturally, rewards came when the dog heeded your calls.
How technology eased up the dog obedience training program
You still need to expose the dog to the situation where it will react in the expected unwanted way, but the transmitter in your hand means it will get a static correction each time it does something you do not approve of. From avoiding to chew shoes and plants, to stopping the habit of running after cars, to not leaving your side when other pets are around - you can train your dog to stay still during all these moments.
Results at your fingertips
You won't have to keep your dog on a tight lease, ready to be yanked back, should it not do as you say. You can think of the transmitted as the new longer-range leash, even more than a hundred yards and your dog can still get some discipline from you. That means, whether your have one small dog that keeps running around, or several sheep dogs on your ranch, a remote dog collar can help you keep a "leash" on them.
Correction from a distance - how it works
Essentially, a remote dog collar just waits for your transmitted signal to release a static correction. You might get exhausted with a leash - you may even have to yank it when restraining your dog in public - but that fatigue and inconvenience is gone with a remote collar. Your constant sending of static shocks whenever the dog misbehaves is the crucial factor in instilling discipline. The longer this continues, the more your dog gets to link his behavior with the follow-up static shock - it wants to avoid the shocks, so it will avoid engaging in the problematic behavior you disapprove of.
