What defines a remote trainer?

Remote trainers enable distant communication with your pet, reinforcing commands and correcting undesirable behaviors. They offer precise and consistent training, key for effective learning.

What are the Mechanics of a Remote Trainer?

A remote training system consists of a hand-held 'transmitter' and a 'receiver' attached to the dog’s collar. The transmitter issues a radio signal to the receiver on the collar, which then communicates with your dog via two stainless steel posts in contact with the neck. The system allows for various training cues, including audible tones, vibrations, brief or constant stimulation, guiding your dog to heed commands or desist from unwanted behaviors.

What are the Safety and Comfort of Stimulation Signals?

The collar's stimulation is designed to be a safe, mild sensation, akin to a static shock from a doorknob, to redirect your dog's focus. The BigLeash collar offers multiple stimulation intensities, usually effective at low levels and barely noticeable to humans. It also includes audible and vibration options, enabling training without physical stimulation.

Warranty Information for BigLeash Collars

DogWatch, Inc. offers a 2-year limited warranty on the transmitter and receiver, covering parts and labor, and a 1-year warranty for batteries and accessories such as chargers and splitter cables. The warranty excludes damage from misuse, improper maintenance, water damage to water-resistant transmitters, and unauthorized repairs, and is non-transferable.

Ideal Age for Starting Remote Training

The right age for remote training varies based on the dog’s comprehension of basic commands. While some trainers suggest starting at five or six months, others might begin earlier if the dog understands basic commands.

Safety Features of the BigLeash

The BigLeash boasts 15 training levels and audible/vibration modes, and can be set to a '0' stimulation level to prevent accidental corrections. It also features an automatic shut-off after 8 seconds of continuous stimulation, ensuring safety during training.

Trainers that allow you to walk your dog using a remote control are excellent for teaching and reinforcing training commands, as well as correcting undesirable behaviors. They're also an excellent method of communicating with your dog when he's too preoccupied or far away to hear you.

Overview

The S-15 Remote Canine Training Collar offers a unique way to communicate with your dog using a signal that travels from a hand-held transmitter to a collar your dog wears. This method is effective for capturing your dog's attention, aiding in teaching new commands, and correcting unwelcome behaviors.

It boasts the distinction of being the sole remote trainer equipped with digital FM technology and the exclusive ‘In-Touch’™ two-way communication system linking the transmitter and the dog's collar.
