ALWAYS TRAIN WITH A CHECK CORD OF ABOUT 15 -20' TO CORRECT THE DOG . IF YOU DO NOT CORRECT THE DOG QUICKLY THEY WILL NOT ASSSOCIATE THE CORRECTION TO THE COMMAND. ITS HARD TO START TRAINING BUT IT MUST BE DONE CORRECTLY FROM THE START OR YOU WILL HAVE MORE PROBLEMS IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I HAVE A GERMAN SHORTHAIR THAT WILL BE SIX ON OCT. 6TH. I DID NOT START HIM FULLY HUNTING UNTIL THE FOLLOWING SEASON BUT I BROUGHT HIM TO THE FIELDS AT 10 WEEKS. DON'T SHOOT OVER IT UNTIL HE'S AT LEAST 10- 12 WEEKS AND USE A CAP GUN OR A STARTER PISTOL SO THAT YOU DON'T RUIN THE DOG AND MAKE IT GUN SHY.TRY USING A FROZEN WING ON A STICK AND A STRING JUST DON'T LET THE DOG CATCH IT , OR HIDE THE WINGIN THE GRASS OR BRUSH AND LET IT COME UP TO IT AND WHOA THE DOG AND PRAISE IT .

I just joined 20 minutes ago and this is my first post. I have a GSP and this will be his second season. I have a lot of deer that hang around the house and my dog will not allow them in the yard on his watch and that is his job. Out in the field he is all business hunting for birds. I have a collar and did use it once when he was right on the tail of a deer, down in the field. On small zap cured him from chasing deer anywhere but out of the yard. I call the collar "The Good Dog Collar" because whenever he has it on he's a real good dog. Don't over use it, the tone button is what I use and always hit the tone button before you zap. You'll be surprised that you'll only use the tone button after once or twice zapping. I used the control measure button also because I think the boost button should be used only in the last resorts. My 2ct.
