Almost always, the root causes are:
- No line of communication between hunter and dog.
- Dog has no self-control.
- Hunter becomes so engrossed by the hunt that his
preoccupation with his own interest is reflected by the dog.
The DOG MASTER SYSTEM book discusses all these problems and gives the corrections.

DOG-MASTER® versus Electronic Collars
For those who may be thinking of getting these fancy-looking and rather
expensive gadgets, we offer additional thoughts:
 From
a learning standpoint there honestly is little to compare. The
DOG-MASTER® LEARNING SYSTEM is holistic in that you get the whole story, the whole thing.
Starting with exactly how to go about not just getting your hunter
right, but also the breed research, the critical time to get your hunter
from the litter, house training, early feeding, grooming, handling, long
walks together, even the jealous wife, and so much more.
In other words, DOG-MASTER® is COMPLETE from birth to death, where
believe me, you grieve, recover, remember, and start over with a much
wiser and more equipped hunter.
With electronic shock collars, everything is based on negative
reinforcement. The only thought is to punish the dog, force him/her not
to do― this or that.
And so on and on. The cycle will just repeat itself and eventually you
end in such a rut. And this rut has no grieving. At the end you'll at
least avoid that.
 Granted,
changes have been made in that you can now adjust the intensity levels
on the shock collars according to your dog's sensitivity, but nothing is
taken away from the fact that they are what they
are: shock collars, instruments of pain. Too often they can affect the
dog's nervous system. As Dr. Miller has witnessed over the years, these
training collars can make a good hunting dog shock-shy and refusing to
hunt altogether [more on the ill-effects of
shock collars...].
As to finding your dog not doing what you want in the heaviest of cover, electronic shock
collars are merely like band-aids, quick fixes to stop the bleeding. But
they never really address the root cause of the problem, which quite
often is over-ranging.
Almost all books on hunting dog training say, and we quote the
oft-repeated refrain: "Don't waste time, just get rid of the dog." What
can we say?
 On
the other hand, not only can DOG-MASTER® give you superb, instant control and
guidance in the field even in heavy cover, it also helps you tune
your hunting dog in so that you do not have to worry about him/her getting
lost, with none of the side effects of electronic shock or pain.
DOG-MASTER® dogs are tuned in― to you. They hunt FOR YOU. And that is not all.
You the hunter will never want to get in any of these
situations where you say "Dammit, I just lost it. I shot him!"
But remember, every mistake is an opportunity! The
point is, you have to get the background, the real story, all of it. DOG-MASTER® does it
all FASTER, EASIER. You will enjoy this life with the best buddy you'll ever
have, hunting or no.
