Whether you're e collar training your dog for true off leash freedom, simply improving their recall, or dealing with challenging/stubborn behavior, e-collars can be an incredibly effective tool. Unfortunately, many owners rush the process or skip foundational steps that are critical to long term success. Training correctly with an e collar is absolutely essential! You can easily make mistakes that will set back your training and take months to fix.

This video will walk you through the do’s and don’ts of e-collar training your dog and give you a clear roadmap for the training process.

What You’ll Learn in This Video:

Mistake #1: Starting Too Soon
You’ll learn why starting e-collar training without putting in the foundational work is a recipe for confusion, fear, and setbacks. If you haven’t mastered leash control with a long line, your dog isn’t ready for an e collar. We explain why obedience must come before corrections, and how to prepare both you and your dog before you start e collar training.

Mistake #2: Not Having a Clear Plan
Should you use stimulation (stim) as positive punishment or negative reinforcement? Is vibration a threat? A warning? A reward marker? If you don’t know, you shouldn’t be using these tools yet. Matt explains the psychology behind each training method and how to choose an intentional, consistent strategy before introducing any form of e-collar communication.

Mistake #3: Improper Acclimation
This is the most overlooked and most critical part of e-collar training. Matt outlines exactly how to introduce stim and vibration separately, how long to acclimate, and how to use food and repetition to create calm, confident behavior instead of fear or confusion. This section includes his personal approach to using vibration as a “pager” system, and how he conditions dogs to respond without stress or hesitation.

We made this video because far too many people use e-collars incorrectly—and it’s not their fault. There’s a ton of misinformation out there. Some people use them too early. Others use them too harshly. And many just don’t have the right guidance.

E-collar training should never be about shocking your dog into obedience. It should be about building clarity, reliability, and communication. If done right, an e-collar gives your dog more freedom, more off-leash fun, and more confidence in you as a leader.

By avoiding these 3 major mistakes, you’ll lay the groundwork for a healthy, trust-based training relationship with your dog that lasts a lifetime.
