It has some help but it is a matter of knowing why the dog destroys why you're gone it could be separation anxiety and that has a whole nother case

Actually Gerry I highly recommend this product. Our neighbors and friends are blown away at the difference it made in our dog. We made a family affair and the whole family watched the videos and we noticed a difference after only 2 sessions with our dog. Our dog would chew on everything and that has disappeared as well. Hope this feedback helps

You sent a return label, but I didn't have anything to print it on. Can you please resend it....Thanks in advance.. the only thing that helped my dog was the collar. We are still having problems. My dog is a Boxer, she has a attention problem. Getting a Electric Collar.

Yes, if the window and the dog are close enough as they need to be when there's no window or wall between you and the dog. I've used it within my home for that purpose. I try to yell "No" loudly enough near the window for her to associate the command with the collar stimulus. Ultimately, I want her to respond to a voice command because sometimes I do want her to bark for security purposes.

Ditto the first response. Video states the training is for all types of dogs except PitBulls. (He explains why in the video.)

Yes, we have the box and Havanese dogs! We do not use the box because out dogs were more interested in pulling pads out of the frame like a toy to shred when they were puppies. Repeated attempts were no more successful and our dogs are 6 mos and adult. They are house trained and use pads on the floor when our timing does not match theirs or we are away. They did use the smaller pad holders found in most pet supply chain stores. We found it was just another thing to clean. Puppy training is essential; we were training 4 puppies after rescuing a pregnant mama dog, so factor that into our mixed success rate:) Yes, we have the box and Havanese dogs!

It might. The video with the training techniques is helpful if you follow the instruction and training consistently. My 3 year old schnauzer-terrier mix learned quickly not to pull on the leash. It wasn't not effective at teaching him not to jump on people or 'counter-surf' to steal food. We used the techniques from the video and got a shock collar. It only took two zaps to teach him and an occasional buzz of sound to remind him and he rarely jumps! So the collar works for mild-mannered dogs but the technique works for more rambunctious fellow.

It doesn't come with a training video. I haven't needed one, it's easy to use with some common sense. The dogs respond to it beautifully. You can probably find some on YouTube.

This I do not know. It's supposed to simulate hugging and feeling safe. The aggressor may feel differently if he has a distraction, but don't bet on it. Try doggie grenades - empty, clean, dry soda can with pennies in it. When the dog displays bad behavior you shake it and say no firmly. If it continues, up the shaking and yell louder. They can be thrown at a wall, the ground or the dog. Wont hurt any of them. Man's best friend uses these to train.

First of all its a greatsystem but you Must train your dog.the way it work is you put the unit in your home adjust the range by turning a knob its numbered.you put flags in the yard so the dog knows its boundaries. You tell the dog a command like easy or no when the collar Beeps.then use your leash and pull him back into tge safe zone and reward him.you have the ccollar in beep only mode.you do this about 3 times a day for a week.then when your sure you turn the correction on.its got good directions.my dogs can go in and out all the time.hope that helps.

No. The motion detector is super sensitive to any movement. If you were going to go out without your pet, you would have to turn the motion detector off. Otherwise, your pet would set off the alarm. GL

Yes, it explains how to do it in the directions that comes with it. They show how you can keep dogs out of flower beds, pools, and other areas.

I used the system to keep my dog from bolting after critters and running out of sight. I now just have to give the warning button and almost never the actual shock. As stated, you would have to have the collar on the dog all the time and watch all the time until the dog associates the bad behavior with the Shock. It should work but it takes some dedication on your part.

No, not at all. I didn't reference them at all. I'm not even sure why they're included to be honest. Bigger issue is whether this aversive training method is best for your dog. I returned mine and went with "clicker" training. Karen Pryor has a book here on Amazon about it. Clicker training uses positive reinforcement versus leash pops with Don's slightly painful Command collar to train your dog. It comes down to your personal belief on what is right.

No it will learn on its own the floors and area's. Once you get it and set it up and then start running it then it will start learning the area's threw the house.

of course! always ignore bad behavior in the dog,(just like a child screams and yells/barks for attention) reward good behavior. this will take dedication and patience, but it's totally worth it. if I can train a rabbit you can easily do a dog. :)Karen Pryor, Getting Started: Clicker Training for Dogs Kit

Hi Diane, check out Karen Pryor's website for all the information you need on clicker training. She also has a book 'Getting Started: Clicker Training for Dogs'. It works!!

There are several sections where he goes over jumping onto people and also jumping onto the counter or for something that the dog wants (like a ball). He does not specifically go over mouthing that i can remember, but i think that once you fully watched the two dvds that will be something you can easily figure out how to correct. The training is for full off leash control and reaching the "trust zone" with your dog and in order for the dog to have that freedom you will have to trust that they wont run off, be aggressive towards others, or other bad doggie type behaviors. There will be work ahead and it is well worth it for the dog and for you.

If he barks continuously after you have left, this product will not work for you. You are thinking of an anti-bark collar, which is sound-activated to deliver a shock at the sound of a bark. Because those collars are not controlled by you, but mechanically, they can be dangerous or cruel. Resolve the dog's issues. Either he is afraid of being left alone or he is going crazy from boredom. A crate, as T. Moon suggested, can provide a sense of security. Toys can help with boredom. Making sure the dog knows it is safe in its home by treating like a member of the family always makes a difference in a dog's behavior.
