Trainer Shock
Trainer Shock
Should I used a Shock Collar on my aggressive lab with out te help of a trainer?
I have a 2 year old lab. I recently got him fix in hopes of solving the problem with aggression. however, this did not work and the problem is getting out of hand he try to bite a guy on a bycicle today and that made me very scare. i try Dog Training clases when he was a puppy but ever since i got him he doesn't listen to my commands and overpowers me( he is 90 pounds and i'm 110). I really don;t know what to do i cannot afford any training classes and and affraid he might hurt someone or hurt me. i was reading about shock collar and i'm considering the option however if i do it a will ready and do it myself. what does everyone think about this? i really don't know what to do i love my dog but he is too agrresive.
Bad idea. Shock collars can actually make them more aggressive. You say you cannot afford classes. Classes cost about $100, shock collars much more than that.
One tool that might help you physically control the dog is a head halter. Read the directions carefully. They can help tremendously with pulling.
Another thing to really look into is "why is this dog being aggressive?" It's not normal for a dog to be aggressive. Dogs are pack animals. Is he frightened? If so, a shock collar will make it MUCH worse. Is he "guarding" you, claiming you as his possession? Then a shock collar will again associate the shock with the threat of the stranger/strange dog and make him more aggressive.
Most training doesn't happen in class, it happens at home. If you cannot afford the classes, you can still do most of the exercises at home. You say "ever since I got him he doesn't listen to my commands and overpowers me" A big, strong dog can certainly do that, and so you have to use psychology. There is a training regimen called "Nothing in Life Is Free" or NLIF. Google it. The basic idea is, everything the dog gets, he gets from you, and he has to do something for you first:
Food - no free feeding. Hand feed him, a kibble at a time, and make him sit, or down. He'll figure it out.
Going outside - he has to sit by the door.
Toys - put them up out of his reach. Never get them out when he barks for them or tries to nudge you into getting them. Only get them out when he responds to a sit or down or some other command that YOU GIVE HIM.
Before you pet him, make him sit, or down, or shake paws, or whatever you think of.
It will be very frustrating and you will get sick of it, but please persist. It will be much more helpful to you than a shock collar, and, ironically considering the name of the program, is free.
