My spouse trains dogs for hunting as a side business. He started by teaching our pet dogs. He realized when he went hunting with associates; they were amazed with how well our dogs handled during the hunting trips. Associates began asking him to train their pet dogs & this has expanded into a part-time business. He works at training the canines to respond to a whistle in addition to to hand and verbal commands. When he is training for up-land duck hunting he employs choke collars and for water retrieves he utilizes nylon dog collars.

The choke collar provides for a lot more control for keeping the dogs steady and at a nearby enough hunting range so any fowl they flush will be in shooting range. The nylon dog collars insure that the canines can be recognized if they get away from him. The flexible nylon canine collars are lighter weight for the dogs to wear while in the water & they also dry swiftly. In times past he used leather collars, however the leather takes quite a long time to dry & they can also cause discoloration around the dog's neck. Leather collars also tend to hold the smell of the oils from the hunting dog's fur. The aroma can become offensive over time. A number of individuals aside from teaching for hunting ask about the anti bark collar. There are some versions of anti bark collar. Some he agrees with their use, others no. He always believes that an anti bark collar should be used as a last resort & he does other training to keep away from the use of them.

My spouse encourages the owners to purchase an assortment of collars for their dogs. He wants them to use the choke collars that will be the accurate size for the canine as it grows. He also requests nylon dog collars in an assortment of widths depending on the activity the canine is doing. Ill fitting collars can be risky for a canine. If the collar is too tight the dogs will be uncomfortable & if it's too lose it can snag on brush or debris that is below the surface of the water. A collar should fit so that it is too snug for the canine to slip out of but is loose enough so that two fingers can fit between the collar and the dog's neck.

Most of the nylon canine collars are adjustable, but they should still be near to the right size. Nylon dog collars are cost-effective so you can afford to replace them as the size changes.

During leash training my husband makes use of leather leashes. They're heavier in weight so the dog adjusts to the principle of being attached to you. Also the leather is more difficult for a dog to chew through if it is used to tie him up. We had one dog that could chew through a nylon leash if we would stop to speak to some-one during a walk. She was so good at doing this that's would take her less than a minute to be off and running on her own.

It's great to have a dog that is well trained. It makes time that you spend together more enjoyable.
