Dog Training Equipment

Someone tried Don Sullivan's dog is a perfect system?

I saw this video a commercial for dog training and equipment: Have you bought This http://www.thane.com/products/promos/perfectdog/perfectdog.php? What has been your experience with it? Would you recommend?

It is a wonderful example of someone who is very sophisticated in the way of using the Internet. Do a quick search of "Don Sullivan" and "Perfect Dog" and find a zillions of forums with a question and then a couple of answers that are all positive (without explaining the technique). Do not miss the curious, the answers seem to read the same … "It one man down "or" faithful to the promise in the infomercial "or seen the results in the coming weeks" or "worked better than any thing I've tried. 1. Don Sullivan said that it does not work. Yes, if you lure. However, decades of research on operant conditioning (with loved humans and other species such as dolphins, horses, cats, dogs Orcs and, of course) has shown that this is false. The problem is that you are a bunch of old times, no contact the search for new people who think it is bribery. They are not. What you do is the development of the association who has a dog with a particular event. 2. Not used a marker (for dogs that would be a clicker to dolphins or whales, whistle) Research has shown that simpler, faster train. All coaches Serious animals in places like Hollywood and SeaWorld animal trainers depend on them. 3. His technique is based on modified by a plastic ring pin. Yes, it will a change in behavior, but only very superficial. For example, suppose your dog was frantic when strangers approach the door and starts barking quickly. It Sullivan uses the collar and stops barking. Problem solved? Not really. The dog probably transfers the behavior of something. For example, probably will be more likely to bite. What I mean is the pain and the adverse behavior does not resolve why the dog does what he does, it moves the whole performance. Therefore, if your dog is threatened by neighbors and a dog starts barking every time the dog is for you "correct" your dog will not suddenly feel that the other dog is not a threat just does not bark. Instead, you may request an opportunity to attack. Or maybe you can not trust. Or the dog may be more likely to flee. For decades, educators have used the necklaces old school pins and collars to train dogs. Of course, they can produce a change in behavior. But what we found is that definitely does not change why the dog was behaving in this way, the behavior is transferred to something else, often produces aggressive dogs or aggressive behavior and does not improve the relationship with the manager or owner. But beyond that, it is effective. I'll give you one last thought: I can compete in agility. At the highest level, absolutely none of the directors I know who treat their dogs in this way. And some of them to perform rescue (this is not unusual for a dog, unlike the rest of us). Some of these people have dogs that do agility tricks or watch TV ads for products for dogs – again, never think of using such behavior. Save your money. It's a bit like everything BarkBusters promo. It is better to invest something like books by Patricia McConnell (the other end the strap is good) or Leslie McDevitt "Control Unleashed" (if you have a reactive dog) or visit Shirley Chong web.
