E-Collar Training Bella the Pitbull Mix.

We are so proud of Brittany and her dedication to her dog’s training! They have both come such a long way and the success they continue to strive for is inspiring.

“Training at Unleashed Potential has changed not only my life but Bella’s.

Before training, I remember crying. I cried so much because I just didn’t know what I was doing wrong. I still lived with my parents and they never experienced a dog like Bella either. She was a handful but she was also the sweetest, most loving, and cuddly dog. She had many issues: counter surfing, jumping, no recall, pulling when walking, no bite inhibition, no boundaries with our senior family dog and the family cat, didn’t listen or connect with me outside, and the list went on. When I sit and think about what she did that was amazing and easy before our training, all that comes to mind (aside from being the sweetest, loving, and cuddly girl) was not peeing or pooping in the house.

With training, the following changed:

• She learned boundaries. Our senior dog was able to eat in peace without Bella bombarding her way in.
• I could recall her. We could go in the fields with a ball and play. She would come back when called. We could go on hikes off-leash. I finally had off-leash control on her.
• The counter-surfing stopped.
• The jumping stopped.
• Leash walking improved. She focused on me finally. This was big. She is part beagle and when the nose went down, it was like I was dead to her, but not anymore.

Now, I won’t lie- I like to keep it real. Bella still has some issues and she has developed new issues over the years. I blame myself because I didn’t stay on top of her training. I slacked off. But with each new issue, I always had Sara to help us and I am forever grateful for her! Bella is a good girl. She is not perfect, but she has come such a long way over the years. We both have.

I was never a perfect dog mom and I’m still not, but I am way more confident with handling Bella than I was before e-collar training. I know it can be scary to use an e-collar for the first time but once you see the positive reaction from it, you’ll realize it’s not scary. The e-collar is not used for punishment and they (Unleashed Potential) teach you how to use it. The e-collar is used for positive things like recalling back to you, sitting, etc. which ends with a reward. The e-collar is also used for corrections like jumping, counter surfing, etc.

I cannot recommend Unleashed Potential enough. The training is life-changing and beyond helpful. If you are wondering if training with them is right for you, the answer is yes. 100000 times yes!!!”
