Training Tech
Remote-controlled training gear
Training tech should support reward-based training, not replace it. The tools that hold up improve timing: a marker you can trigger remotely, a dispenser that rewards calm, or a boundary that warns before anything else. Avoid anything whose entire mechanism is punishment.

Remote treat dispensers
Reward the exact second the dog settles. Timing is the whole game in reward-based training.

Virtual boundaries with a warning tone before anything else; useful where burying a wire is impractical.
- Warning first
- No buried wire

Humane anti-bark devices
Ultrasonic and spray units interrupt rather than punish; pair them with finding out what triggers the barking.
- Interrupts, does not punish
- Adjustable sensitivity

Puzzle feeders and enrichment
Mental work tires a dog faster than a walk and cuts destructive boredom: the cheapest training upgrade there is.
