GENERAL TRAINING TIPS
Your dog must know some basic obedience commands
before beginning training with the ARC. A dog learns
by first being shown a command, followed by lots of
repetition over an extended period. As the dog becomes
proficient at these commands, the trainer can introduce
distractions and different locations to strengthen them.

on the leash/collar is used to reinforce the command.
When the dog complies with the command, use positive
reinforcement/praise. Once the dog understands these
commands, the e-collar can be used to reinforce them.
Beginning E-Collar Training
When you feel your dog understands the obedience
commands on the leash we can now start with the e-collar
training. With the dog on the leash and wearing the
e-collar, continue with your obedience drills. Apply light
stimulation (Nick or Constant) when a command is given;
the stimulation can be removed as the dog complies.
Through repetition, the dog learns to perform the
command.
The final step is the avoidance phase in which the
dog learns that he can avoid the stimulation altogether
by performing your commands. When these training
