We’ve had a lot of you reach out about giving your dogs more off-leash freedom while still having that added layer of safety and communication. That’s why we’re excited to offer our: E-collar Foundations Pop-in Session. There are two spots remaining!

Curious about e-collar training but not sure where to start?

This pop in session is designed to educate dog owners on how e-collars are properly and ethically used in training. Whether you’re looking to incorporate one into your training or simply want to better understand the tool, we’re happy to meet you where you’re at.

We’ll spend the first half of the session breaking down:
• What an e-collar actually is (and what it isn’t)
• How dogs learn through pressure and release
• Proper fit, levels, and timing
• Common mistakes and misuse

The second half will be hands on, where we’ll guide you through:
• Finding your dog’s working level
• Proper application
• How to use the e-collar clearly and fairly

We recommend the Mini Educator ET-300, but you don’t need one for the session!

If you aren’t ready to use this tool that’s completely okay. This class is also a great fit for owners who:
• Feel unsure or nervous about e-collars
• Have heard mixed opinions and want more information
• Simply want to understand the tool before making a decision

There is no pressure to use one, our goal is to help you make an informed choice.

Where do we stand on this?

We’ve had a lot of clients reach out recently about e-collar training, so we wanted to create a space to talk about it the right way.

At Bear Brook, we are positive reinforcement first. We believe in building strong foundations, clear communication, and a positive relationship with your dog. That being said, we also recognize that not every dog learns the same way, and certain tools can be incredibly effective when used correctly and fairly.

Our goal is never to push tools, it’s to educate owners so they can make informed decisions. Because at the end of the day:

It’s not the tool that’s bad, it’s how it’s used 🐾
