This Dog Training video shows how to teach your dog the 3 most important commands and be in control: SIT, HERE, NO. To accomplish this Bill will teach you how to use the electric collar, using his "Soft Collar" method = an electronic signal between you and your dog. Consecutive training sessions are with a yr old 1/2 Jack Russell. "Tilly" has never been worked before the camera started shooting the lessons. In other words the dog is being trained in front of the camera. This film does not show a dog that is already trained and merely showing the end result. No other video has ever been produced that shows the actual training of one specific dog over a period of time, using the electric collar. You will see the first time "Tilly" hears the SIT command. What Bill wants to accomplish with this video is to outline a way for you to get your dog to do what you want and NOT to do what you don't want him to do. He wants to simplify it to the point where anyone can understand it. Bill's goal is to give information to a person who owns a dog, and wants to have him be an intricate part of the family, without being a force that threatens everything else that the family wants to do. Dogs have been trained using many different methods, but what Bill will avoid is the politically correct but functionally useless program that he calls the Pet Shop Method. This is where people bribe their dogs with food to get them to learn commands. The fact is that they do learn what the commands are, they just don't learn they MUST DO them. Using this approach you don't have any recourse if the dog doesn't comply, you just watch him do what you don't want him to do and be mad at yourself because you didn't have the right kind of food with you. A dog must obey every command, and you must have a way to reinforce the command you give to your dog. Food is a great tool, as a REWARD, but there still has to be a mechanism to reinforce the command after has been learned. 12 pg manual incl
