Collars  

A collar is not just a fashion statement but a very important piece of equipment. The tag attached to it should have not only your dog’s name and phone number, but any medical needs as well. There are a variety of collars used for training and handling your dog. 

Flat or slip collars, also called chokers are used in leash training as an aid to curb excessive pulling. There are prong or pinch collars as well as electronic or remote training collars available to aid with hunting. Which collar you choose depends on your needs, but it should fit well so it will not easily come off yet still be comfortable.

Reward dog training tools consist of either a favorite treat or toy. Most dogs are food responsive, so using the treat system is effective. Some dogs are addicted to toys and you can use this to your advantage as well to entice him into obeying a command. Of course, remember to give praise to reinforce obedience. Keep treats in very small pieces to avoid over-feeding, and only use as a reward for obedience.
