Dog Shock Collar Guide

"A collar won't be any good unless you know how to use it"

Some people perceive a dog shock collar to be cruel.

The static correction itself is brief and only minimally uncomfortable. A dog shock collar can provide a way to safely teach your dog to avoid potentially unwanted and dangerous behaviors.

With limitations from the first generation of electronic dog collar, manufacturers worked to refine their electronic training equipments with a variation of multiple stimulation level from the hand-held remote transmitter. The trainer can now select from one of the three main intensity level for a particular corrections: high, medium and low. The benefits of working with a remote dog collar is the trainer can immediately send a signal to the dog`s unwanted or undesirable behavior at a distance far greater than leash training allows.

Remote Dog Training Collar Important Features

It is very important to consider these important features before buying a remote electronic dog shock collar.

· Multiple Stimulation Levels

Remote hand-held transmitter must have the flexibility to match the stimulation level to your dog's temperament. Stimulation intensity level must also be appropriate to the size of your dog. Larger dogs need a high stimulation to follow and obey your commands while a small collar, your dog may not respond from the radio frequency if the stimulation is too weak. Most electronic dog shock collar systems now clearly indicate what size of dog the training collar is intended for.

Innotek BT-502A Dog Shock Collar has 4 stimulation levels while Innotek ADV-1000 Dog Shock Collar and Innotek ADV-1002 Dog Training have 15.

There are 2 forms of stimulation available on the market today. First is the continuous stimulation, this method of correction delivers an electronic stimulation to the dog as long as the button is pressed from the hand-held remote transmitter. The second form is the momentary stimulation or sometimes called "nick". The dog will only receive a short electronic stimulation within seconds. Auto shutoff features are also available on some remote transmitter.

· Range


Generally speaking, the more range, the better. Effective range of an electronic collar can vary according to terrain, environmental and line of sight conditions. If you are training your dog in the field, it is recommended to have a long range training collar so the transmitter can still produce a reliable strong signal when if its needed. However, if you are only doing a basic yardwork obedience training, the 150 to 300 yard range is more than enough.

If you want to cover a 150 yards range, you can use our Innotek BT-502A Dog Shock Collar. For 300 yards range, you can choose between our Electronic Remote Dog Shock Collar, IUT-302 Innotek UltraSmart or Innotek ADV-300 Dog Shock Collar . If you have a larger area that you want to cover, we also offer Innotek ADV-1000 Dog Shock Collar and Innotek ADV-1002 Dog Training for 1000 yards range.

· Handheld Transmitter Design

The transmitter should be small enough to carry in your pocket. Manufacturers make transmitters that small and lightweight. However, dog trainers have their own personal preferences but the main feature to be considered is the resistance. Some handheld transmitters are waterproof, water resistant, and rugged punishment tested.

· Integrated Collar Design

Remote electronic dog collar should have intelligent engineering with internal antenna to avoid being caught up from the dog's body. And of course, waterproof collars are highly recommended if you intend to train your dog in our around the water.

· Manufacturer & Retailers

Manufucturers that proven to be in the business with excellent product support. I recommend 2 of finest manufacturers (Innotek and Pet Safe). While Pet Street Mall, the fastest growing internet site with a variety of available pet products has been online since 2001 got my recommendation. Other notables are Innotek Direct, Mutt Mart, KCKaylas Pet Supplies and America Outdoor.
