Dog trainers, especially those who are not professionals in the field, usually confuse dog training with control.犬培训,特别是那些谁不专业领域,通常是混淆狗的训练与控制。 In any dog-man pair, the human always have the need to gain control.在任何狗人一双,人总是有需要增益控制。 This is not really bad except that sometimes, the man abuses the privileged of control.这是确实不坏,但有时,这名男子的特权行为的控制。
Dog training collars provide that control.狗训练衣领规定,控制。 While the intention is normally good- to remove unwanted (but instinctual) behaviors of the dogs for example- the process of training is sometimes incorrect and abusive of the dog’s weaknesses and the tools used for training are not well-adapted to the needs of the dog.虽然意图通常是良好的,以消除不必要的(但本能)行为的狗例如,在训练过程中有时是不正确和虐待的狗的弱点和工具用于培训没有得到很好适应的需要狗。
We, humans, often forget that dogs are individuals too.我们,人类往往忘记了狗是个人了。 Some dogs are very aggressive and hard to control, some are funny and gives us much comfort and joy, others are just laid back and refuse to undergo training and some are naturally fast learners while others are slow learners.有些狗是非常积极的和难以控制,有些滑稽,给了我们很多安慰和喜悦,其他人只是悠闲,并拒绝接受培训和一些自然快速的学习者,而其他人学得慢。
Training collars were invented to gain enough control over the canines, however some people fail to adhere to the basic principles of these tools.训练项圈发明获得足够的控制犬,但一些人不遵守的基本原则,这些工具。 Choke or chain collars, for example, are one of the very first tools invented to help lessen the tension between man and dog.扼流圈或连锁衣领举例来说,是一个非常首先发明的工具,以帮助减少之间的紧张关系人与狗。
But there are people who overuse and misuse the choke collars.但是,有些人谁过度使用和滥用窒息衣领。 Some handlers are so harsh that many dogs experience neck damages and some even choke to death.有些处理是如此恶劣,许多狗的脖子损害的经验,有些甚至窒息死亡。 In short the use of this type of collars is very dangerous, if not counter-productive.总之使用这种类型的衣领是非常危险的,如果不是适得其反。
Some handlers, on the other hand, lack sufficient knowledge on the specific collars that would work well with their dogs.有些从业员,另一方面,缺乏足够的知识的具体衣领将工作以及他们的狗。 For example, the popular choice of collar these days are the electronic dog collar due to its remote access to dogs which provide continuous “training” for even when the owner is not around.例如,流行的选择衣领这些天是电子狗颈圈由于其远程访问狗提供持续的“训练” ,甚至当主人不在身边。 While this may be a popular alternative to old fashioned dog training collars, many people just don’t completely understand its disadvantages.虽然这可能是一种流行的替代老式的警犬训练项圈,很多人只是不完全理解其缺点。
There are some very mundane reasons as to why collars could be, at times, counterproductive.也有一些非常世俗的原因,为什么可以领,有时适得其反。 For one, there are people who just don’t take the extra time to check if the collar is fit or not.其中之一是,有些人谁不采取额外的时间来检查,如果是白领或不适合。 With improper fitting, the collar could pinch the skin (especially the Martingale collar) and scratch it causing burning spots.不当拟合,衣领可以捏的皮肤(特别是鞅白领)和它造成从头燃烧点。
These are very uncomfortable to dogs as much as having skin lesions would make someone feel irritated.这些都是非常不舒服狗多有皮肤损伤会使人感到恼火。 The rule of thumb for getting the right fit of collar for your dog is to allow two to three inches gap between the attached collar and the neck.法治的拇指为获得合适的衣领为你的狗是允许两个的3英寸之间的差距十分衣领和脖子上。
Another reason why dog collars could be potentially counterproductive is that they work on the principle of pain and fear and not really on discipline.另一个原因狗项圈可能会产生适得其反的是,他们的工作的原则,疼痛和恐惧,而不是真正的纪律。 Electronic training collars work by sending electronic shocks to the dog wearing it or unpleasant sound that will discourage the dog from barking.电子培训工作的项圈发送电子冲击狗穿或不愉快的声音,将阻止从狗叫声。
Even when it proves to be efficient in delivering its purpose- to distract the dog from barking- the results are not as good.即使当它被证明是有效地提供它的目的,来分散狗的叫声,结果并不好。 Why?为什么? Because the dog starts to lose its confidence.由于狗开始失去信心。
Quick fixes for behavior control are more often than not tempting to use and leads to overdependence to control devices.快速修复行为控制往往不是诱人的使用,并导致过度控制装置。 While doing it the long way usually proves to be more valuable.虽然做了很长的路通常被证明是更有价值。
Therefore, before one chooses a dog training collar, it is recommended to do your research first so your dog’s comfort would not be compromised.因此,在选择一个狗训练衣领,建议做您的研究第一次让您的狗的舒适性不会受到损害。
