German Shepherd Collars

Before you start leash training your puppy, make sure that you are using the proper equipment. Do not start with an extension leash; these are strictly for playtime. Your puppy or newly adopted older dog needs to understand that the person holding the leash is in charge of the walk direction and pace. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to learn more about leash training your new puppy or adopted dog.

Sometimes we need a little more control over our pet. There are times when we have to work with an uncontrollable or frightened dog. For out of control pets there is the Gentle Leader head collar (or promise collar). Dogs can still eat and drink with this gentle muzzle type of collar on, but they can't bite. Most dogs start behaving within minutes of putting this collar on, but corrections are easy. Just a gentle tug and it pulls down the nose of the dog just like the lead pack dog would correct them in the wild.

The Gentle Leader training head collar has been used by trainers for years to calm aggressive dogs. Once you get used to putting it on correctly it will have your German Shepherd listening to your commands within minutes!

The Gentle Leader is just one of the training collars available to German Shepherd owners. There's also the choke chain and the prong collar. Both are very effective when used properly.

The "choke chain" gets a bad wrap due to the name. It's actually one of the most effective training tools available to dog owners. Just slip it over your dog's head (it should hang so it presents itself in a "P" shape). When the dog pulls even slightly give a gentle correction by pulling on the leash with a quick light jerk. You should not be jerking the dog back to your side or choking the dog in any way. Just a quick tug does the trick. These collars are more effective on short haired breeds, but they are perfect for starting your German Shepherd training.

There are times when you need complete control over your dog. For example, some grooming or veterinary procedures. When it becomes a health issue for your pet you may need to use a muzzle. These are not cruel to the animal (unless left on for a lengthy amount of time). A muzzle could actually save your dog's life. Sometimes our pets bite us out of fear or pain. If you need to handle your pet when it's injured and can't due to biting, a muzzle is your best friend and could save your dog.

Find a specialty pet shop in your area, preferably specializing in dog collars and leashes. The more specialized the store, the more knowledgeable the staff (hopefully). Many specialty dog shops also allow you to bring your puppy in for fittings, just make sure that the shop is clean prior to bringing in your new puppy.

Get a leash that comfortably comes to your waist when the dog is standing at your side or slightly behind you. For example; hold the leash handle in your left hand (at your waist), run the leash across your body to your right hand (at your waist) and let the leash fall down your right leg (forming an upside down L) to the height of your dog's neck when standing next to you.
