At one time or another, a dog owner will find it necessary to train a dog to change its certain behaviors and manners. In this case, dog training will be invaluable and it is only in using the right training techniques that you can be able to make the dog understand what is right, what is wrong and what is expected of it. There are many dog training techniques available for you to use. However, the suitability of these techniques is not necessarily universal and just because one technique works on one dog is not guaranteed to work on another.

The first step in successful training of your dog is choosing the right training method that will address the root concern to the behavior of the dog. The best training techniques is always optimistic, meaning that it should not involve spanking, beating, punishing or scolding the dog. A dog will never learn from any form of oppressive training. Oppressing a dog during training will make it fearful and dangerous and this will never be a characteristic of a good pet.

However, at some instances, it is necessary to warn or even punish a dog. How you do it is the greatest determinant of its effectiveness. Most dog owners are always confused when to warn, to punish or even to reward a dog. Rewarding a dog when it is supposed to be punished or punishing it when it is supposed to be motivated can have very serious negative effects on the training.

In many instances, most dog training exercise fail because the family members confuse it by issuing contradicting and unclear training commands. There should only be one dog trainer at a time. Even in a large family, the dog trainer should be consistent and advice other family members what not to do, what not to train the dog and how to assist the dog grasp some of the training they have taught it. This will be a positive action that will definitely bear fruit in the long run.

Another vital point to note while training your dog is his performance while it is near you. For a professional dog trainer, it may be easy to get the dog’s attention because they have no special attachment. If the dog owner is acting as the trainer, there are bound to be many distractions especially if the dog is grown. The dog could be tempting the trainer every now and then to play its favorite game or just wants to walk. As a trainer, you must learn to instruct a dog when it is serious lesson time and what time is play time.

If there are many distractions during the dog training, it is wise to train the dog while under leash. This way, the trainer will be in control and bring the dog’s concentration back whenever it strays. The dog will be more focused and cooperative if it is under leash. If you are not sure how to control the dog using a leash, it is important to learn and practice this prior to beginning the dog training exercise.

As an approved reseller of Canicom dog training collars within the UK we are well placed to give you an honest review on the performance about these collars.

The journey with Canicom who are made by the French manufacturer Numaxes started when we were approached by them to sell their products within the UK. Before we agree to sell any new products we always research their suitability thoroughly so we travelled to Germany to meet a Canicom distributor to get their feedback which was very positive. We then went to see the manufacturer south of Paris to see Numaxes manufacturing facility which was excellent. The company has a very professional modern factory with much emphasis on quality procedures checking every component at each stage of the manufacturing process to ensure that the products have been fully tested and meet customers’ expectations.

The main difference between Canicom dog training collars are that they are the only company that doesn’t source any components from China, all parts are manufactured in France and there is no compromise on the quality of the components that are used. This emphasis on quality rather than cost is an important factor that has enabled Canicom collars become so recognised within gun dog training circles.

Whilst certainly not the cheapest of dog training collars they have built up a reputation as a good quality reliable trainer. There are some makes that are much more expensive than Canicom but you certainly wouldn’t get a product with better performance.

Since we have been selling Canicom training collars we have been delighted with the very few after-sales issues that we have had to deal with and most of these have been down to operator errors. All Canicom collars come with a 2 year warranty against defective components so customers have peace of mind when making a decision to purchase. All Canicom collars are fully waterproof so these collars are ideal for all terrains, and will suit dogs that love water.

Whilst the Canicom brand is relatively unknown outside the gun dog fraternity these collars are often the choice of dog trainers and we have sold many of these to professional trainers which does indicate the level of trust in them. More recently the brand has started to be recognised by the general public as an affordable option to control their dog with recall or behavioural issues.

Numaxes manufacture a whole range of dog training collars from 200metres through to 1500 metre distances, one issue with other brands has been that they have failed to live up to their claims on the operating range. We are however pleased to confirm that our independent trials have backed up Numaxes claims that these Canicom dog training collars really do what they say on the tin relating to the distances even in difficult terrains.
