Dog Training Collars for Hunting and Mustering / Extra Long Range
Does this sound familiar to you?
“no matter how loud I yell or whistle the bloody dog just won’t listen and come back” or “when I ‘m out in the field with the dog/s and they are supposed to be working and get distracted by something and I can’t get their attention back to the job by using my normal method of command” or “when I caught up with the dog and he had the pig he wouldn’t come off it”
Using a dog training collar is by far less stressful for the dog and the owner and these are just a couple of examples of how frustrating it can be for a working dog owner or hunter to be out in the field with their dog/s and find that the dog/s can be ‘hard of hearing’ at a distance (or sometimes even close up!) so this is when a dog training collar becomes an invaluable tool to add to an owners or dog trainers training kit. These are also known as a ‘shock collar’, training collar or e-collar and all have different functions that you can choose to use in your dog training e.g. varying levels of static correction, ‘vibration’ or ‘tone’ warning.
We all know what it means to have consequences so when used correctly these devices tell the dog to listen right at the time he has disobeyed his command. In obedience training timing is everything so when using the dog training collar and the dog doesn’t listen when it’s on the lowest level you can then increase the level until you get the dog to respond just the way he or she should.
The systems that are available today differ greatly from years gone by because modern technology has helped make these products far more humane and easier pieces of equipment to use.
When choosing a device to use consider the situation that you might be using it in e.g. rounding up sheep or cattle with more than one working/mustering dog or out with more than one hunting dog, because you can choose a system tailored to your needs e.g. with just one dog training collar - the Dogtra 1900NCP Dog Training Collar or one that has multiple collars - the Dogtra 1804NC Dog Training Collar or one that you can add collars as required - SD1825 SportDOG Training Collar
Other Products from Dogtra include the Dogtra 1802NC which is a 2 dog training collar and the Dogtra 1803NC e collar
When considering ‘range’ of a device this means the distance away from you that you will be working with the dog/s, whether it’s a dog trainer using it for obedience training or a working dog out in the paddock or even a hunter in the bush so the devices have ranges from 800 metres to 1600 metres and you need to remember that when there is going to be something between you and the dog e.g. hills, livestock, scrub etc then the range can be cut down so make sure you choose one that has plenty of range in the field.
