With Marc's permission - here is some information about an upcoming workshop that focuses on the correct use of electronic collars in field work and obedience training.
The Correct Use of E-Collars in Field Work and Obedience Training
A two day workshop with Anne Everett
Feb 26-27, 2011
During this workshop you will learn how to effectively and humanely use an electronic collar as part of your training program. The first day of the workshop will begin with a session on how to fit the e-collar and determine what level of stimulation is appropriate for your dog. The theory behind the use of e-collars will be discussed, as well as their mis-use. The balance of the workshop will be devoted to demonstrating the use of the e-collar in obedience and field training.
A number of obedience and field exercises will be covered over the two days. You will have the opportunity to participate in each session, based on the level of understanding your dog has of the obedience or field skill that is the focus of that particular session. For example, your dog must understand the heel and fetch commands before those commands are reinforced with the e-collar. The workshop will be held in a heated indoor facility. Sessions in the field will be scheduled throughout the weekend.
