What is the average best age to start shock collar training? Im getting a black lab puppy in a couple of weeks and want to start training him as soon as possible to be a good duck dog.Thanks
This!!^^^After he already knows his commands and has been collar conditioned .
And This!!^^^We don't train with an e-collar until we enter "advanced" training. In our opinion, e-collars are used to reinforce NO at a distance. Save your time and money and reinforce the basics, and you may not need one at all. The basics are taught with a choke chain and lead rope. The more the dog advances, the longer the rope gets.
The collar should only be used to reinforce known commands!!...........Age has nothing to do with this!!Thanks for the info guys. I think I'll hold off on getting the shock collar. At first I had the idea that they were used for main training purposes, but I got a lot of feedback basically that its for advanced dogs that already know their main commands. Thanks for the help guys, I want to be sure to train him the right way

You will know when your dog understands a command, but just doesn't wan't to comply.
