An effective training collar for boundaries can teach your dog to behave in an orderly and safe manner outside the house, from staying off furniture or not running into people/pets to staying away from items they shouldn’t get into, having clear boundaries is beneficial to everyone involved!
Doing a good job training your dog to respect its boundaries may take work, but it isn’t impossible. Consistent training with an effective dog training collar is key. Boundary training works best when done in an environment familiar to your pup such as their backyard; this helps your pup understand where the off-limit areas lie more quickly.
Begin by using a long line to show your dog where the boundaries of your property lie, while simultaneously training commands like sitting, staying, and heeling on this long line. As soon as they understand its purpose and understands your boundaries well enough off leash, gradually remove it until they’re reliable off leash enough for “leave it” exercises.
