My dog needs more training and I have an older Sportdog FT-100 remote and a FR-200A collar that I need battery?
I need new battery packs and a new charger for them. Have they changed model numbers and are they still available.

2 days ago I got my 47lb female lab x Rotti a prong collar because she pulls on walks and because she has aggression towards other dogs. (Having never been socialized with them)
She walked great with it! And I could easily correct her when she tried going into one of her berserk rages when she sees another dog. But then I tried walking her in a field…
She changed back into her pulling and strained against the leash as hard as ever. (It was on properly, it was high on her neck). As soon as she stepped back onto pavement she went into a heel… How should I train her? She didn’t seem to feel the prong collar at all.
Besides that she learned really fast. I’m teaching her the word "heel’ and she already understands what I mean ( I still need to perfect it though) I am also teaching her the command "loose-leash" Which just means she doesn’t have to heel anymore.
I am training her by correction- if she pulls I will give her a tug so she comes back to me. If she is obedient she gets praise and occasionally a treat.
I live in Canada- its the CKC here. I’m not getting her a trainer. She is a dog.
I don’t "babble" to my dog. She understands what I want her to do.
Isn’t longe line work for horses? I looked it up but couldn’t find what it is.
I tried the head collar… It does limit her pulling but because if various reasons I’ve decided not to use it.
Anyone have it? What is it? Does it really work? I need a system to use, from what I’ve heard ppl are raving about it…
okay so I tried training my dog with a static training collar and she completely flipped out she didn’t understand what the static stimulation was for.. Ive trained two other dogs using this collar and they both understood perfectly what it is I am not asking them for 1,000,000 dollars I’m asking them for simple commands they already know sit come ect. But this dog a wire hair pointing griffon/ lab mix just does not get the picture and its not on its highest level of stimulation in fact it’s only on 1 or 2 out of 10.. is it because its a female and the others were male or?? Any ideas
i am using the collar because of her attention span she always has something on her mind so im using the collar to motivate her to pay attention more.. i cant use treats because when i do she gives me a completely different kind of attention and one that doesn’t work well.. im training her to be a water dog and family pet and when i throw the dummy into the water wile she knows the reward is a treat she says what? just give me the treat.. she is a year and a half old and hyper thanks for your answers!! ps the other two dogs are amazing retrievers and great hunters
The reason is the dog barks at other dogs while inside our fence. I know that our dog had little socialization when it was young and did not get Her until She was about 3-4 months old. I take Her to the Dog Park, and everyone and every dog likes Her. She even receives complements about How well She behaves with other dogs. But if those same dogs walk by our fence, it is all bets off. One Dog in particular is a Shnoser who drives Her wild. The other night, She pulled away from my Wife on the leash and the two got into a fight. Ended up taking other dog to vet for stitches. So I know She needs training, but do we use someone that trains hunting dogs that uses shock collars.
HI I have a big Black lab 1 year and 5 months years old. And I want a collar that can help me train her she is a good dog but I need help and don’t have money for a trainer. She is a quick learner and I heard a bark collar is the best investment. I want a zap collar that there is a remote so she doesn’t get zapped everytime. thats harsh. So could you help me find a good one?
do i have to use my dogs head collar for life? i really dont want to use it for life.
We have aquired 2 sled dogs, from a deceased family member friend, we love dogs and were wondering if we could leash train these two sled dogs and not ruin their pulling(we think dog sledding would be fun) we will probably use a prong collar just for training.
I use a trainig collar with my dog and properly, I was shown how to use the high-collar correction but havn’t used it in a while and kind of forget the placement of collar and stuff.thanks
PS. please no answers of not using it!
the type of training collar is a slip collar that I am using
