## Caption

An e-collar does NOT fix reactivity nor does it necessarily make a dog reactive ❌

It’s simply a communication tool and shouldn’t be used before a dog understands:
1. Engagement
2. Markers
3. Leash pressure
4. Basic obedience cues

The collar keeps communication clear & works best once the relationship is already established. 

It doesn’t solve anything just by having it. In fact, used incorrectly, it can make things worse.

Got a question on reactivity? Drop it below. And keep tuning into the series where I’ll be breaking down more myths!
