How do you decide on the level of correction to give with the e collar. I would of thought that warranted a much smaller correction to get him in the right direction? It seemed like a high correction for him to vocalize. I would of thought that type of correction was more for when a dog refuses a command, (e.g chasing a rabbit avoiding recall command) and not for making a mistake. I don't know how to train a dog to this level so i am not criticising you but just curious. Is your nick button set at 100 or something?
If you have criteria for a behavior and the dog makes a "mistake" or error that is costly, it must not occur again. This is the avoidance of part of training. Knowing the kind of dog you have, motiviation, resilience, and fluency in a behavior dictates intensity. Vocalization can happen even at "low" intensity. Don't look too deep into it. In the world of protection dogs, a dog failing to perform a trained behavior is the same as a pet dog chasing an animal for that world.
For a typical pet dog this would be massively overkill for a seemingly small mistake. You have to remember the type of dog Gage is and the work he does. Extremely hard dogs like Gage will be amped up by "normal" corrections. And I would guess has been trained to respond positively to low level stim. Low level stim will amp him up and encourage him, not discourage him. On the field he has no handler help and no tools. By creating a serious consequence to failure it helps ensure that when the tools are removed he doesn't make the same mistake again. It is far better to over-correct once than under correct 10 times. Under correction is at best ineffective, at worst is negatively reinforcing a bad behaviour.
what was the 1st "article" youre telling me that dog tracked down a single square inch piece of material? has he added scent, that was crazy either way
Love watching Gage.
No matter the work, he always brings so much intensity to it 💥
Good “vibrations” in training 😂
Glad you’re using a “vibration” collar 😂
The good vibes in training😜
Seening a dog working always gives me a good vibe day💪
He's looking good Haz. Nice.

I have my doubts that this is what the champion level IGP trainers are doing. According to Ivan and Mia Skogster it's not.
Does this help with deer tracking?
!!!!!!!
How you are marking corners with flags so far from corner and they are i ground?
💪💪💪

What's the article?
Nice "vibrations" , maybe use a no pull harness to slow him down on the track #science
Prongs and "vibration collar" only in my opinion, no pull harnesses are useless.
@@yungsparkles7355I am joking lol
that makes no sense
