If you simply observe the dogs behaviour and are aware of the wind direction there should be no problem, this is often done with snake avoidance.

Note the dogs reaction, it does a 180 and goes the other way.

You'd move the dog away with the lead? At the beginning of the thread you said you'd never trust your dogs safety to a bit of rope.

Is anyone else getting a sinking feeling whenever they see the name AP on a thread?

*raises hand* Me! Because I know what it's going to turn into. I really do wish the mods would rid the place of that troll.

Fact is my e collar/aversive discussion is restricted to those threads about e collars/aversives. If you dislike it don't read the thread.

Btw anyone who doubts the effectiveness of this training should watch that vid.

As you just pointed out in another thread videos can be made to show whatever you want them to.

*sigh* watched the vid and yes the dog turned on a sixpence BUT (regardless of the fact it was trained to avoid snakes) what that clip tells me is that the "zaps" it received must have been VERY painful to have gained such an immediate, fearful and panicked reaction
