Ivan, thank you for having these hard conversations and talking about BIG topics!

Banning them is incredibly stupid. 90% of training can be done with positive reinforcement, but there are just some things you can't effectively teach without some aversion training. An e-collar, used correctly, is a safe and humane form of correction that can make the point without ever actually hurting the dog. Some dogs are simply not going to respond to positive reinforcement when the temptation is too strong.

anything can be misused, banning is not the answer. education and information is key...

Ive never heard of an reinforcement only trainer that seen some crazy person kicking a dog abusivly and call it training. And as a result of that cut their leg off. Education. Education and education. Thats the solution. I would love to have a no aversives training but i dont want to fail my dog, want to have a off leash dog. Thats why i do some aversives, but mostly play with my dog 🥰

My rescue was feral when I got her and impossible to let off leash. After 2 years of daily long line recall training, her recall was no better than the day I got her. Walks were horrible, she needed to run and I had no where safe to let her run (there were no fenced areas without livestock where I lived). I bought an ecollar (calling them shock collars is BS) and trained her with that, not as a punishment, but as a way of getting her attention. I use the vibrate function and have never used the stim mode above 3/10. She now has full off leash freedom and walks are a joy. It transformed our relationship. People who ban these tools are selfish idiots.

The nuance of his argument is lost on her. I appreciate his persistence and patience but it's a dead end.

We almost had to give up my wife’s boxer, nice dog but became very protective of our entire farm . On leash great obedience , easy to work with but of leash whole different animal. After a couple of bad experiences we were about to give the dog away, breaking our hearts . Then came trying e-Colar , having no experience we researched, Ivan, Robert all Excelant dog trainers. Before I put the colar on the dog I put it on my own neck, started lowest setting then brought it up to where I could feel a tingle no shock. So we slowly started on our dog, there is a ringing mode, vibration mode then shock. Within several trading sessions and on tingle mode, Tyson has on felt tingle twice, learned very quickly with ringing and vibrate, our boxer has a shepherd brother that is very obedient off leash when there both playing and get very close to leaving the property 5 hectares , we call them back if they don’t listen just with the ring, both dogs return fast , the shepherd has learned when she hears the ring she comes on recall. Best investment ever, used properly is the most humane device you can use on a dog. Who knows where Tyson would have ended up if it weren’t for the e-collar .

Does this include containment e collars? I personally am not able to afford a fence and this is a solution for me. I do not leave her alone but it’s nice to be outside with my dog while we are both in the yard. We contain livestock with electric fences.

My concern with training tool bans is that more dogs will face being surrendered and potentially euthanized because the owner is forced to give up on their dog because they have no other choice. They are forced to give up on the results they have found where another method failed to achieve. Force Free absolutely works but I don't believe it is the sole answer to all problems.

You are reinforcing one of the points Ivan expressed here. I will reinforce another of his points made here. Years ago, when the first ecollars were developed and available for use, the technology was primitive by today's standards. They were much hotter (higher stimulation) without the ability to moderate the intensity. Also, there was no readily accessible information available for "best practices" techniques for ecollar training. The advancements in ecollar technology and technique along with the availability of information for proper use have resulted in today's ecollar training to be incomparable to the early days of ecollar training. Nevertheless, at the time of the introduction of ecollars, used very harshly by today's standards, those ecollars instantly replaced horribly abusive techniques and tools commonly in use at that time. As Ivan points out, if ecollars are banned, people who currently use an ecollar with any inclination toward abuse will replace their ecollar tool with something else that is far more abusive. Any ban will result in worse treatment for many dogs. I think Ivan is pointing out that there are many different scenarios in the "before ban" and "after ban" comparison. In almost all of those scenarios, the dog is worse off after the ban. The better alternative to banning is education. Growth, advancement and enlightenment comes from adding (information, choices, abilities), not from taking away.

the 'no other choice' is training which nearly NO owner does at all! They bluff and lie and I have seen it for 30 years and taken 3 of my own dogs through CGC certification and 3 levels of dog training...
