Training collars are effective tools if they are used properly.

Training religiously with a dog helps the owner develop communication skills that the dog can easily respond to and at the same time, the activities allow for bonding and development of trust from the dog to his owner. The key to

dog training is reinforcement - a dog should learn how to follow instructions or commands that are enforced by the owner, whether by pulling on a leash, or by giving a treat.

When teaching your dog the come and heel command, use a friendly voice. Be consistent with your training commands - when you’re teaching a dog a command, you must decide ahead of time on the verbal cue you’re going to be giving her, and then stick to it. There's a popular saying among dog trainers: "There's no such thing as a bad dog".
