You only collar condition AFTER your dog completely understands the commands you are giving. Usually right after force fetch is a good time IF you have properly taught here, heel, sit

I started my dog at 13 months after he had all the commands down, that's when he testicles got him thinking if he couldn't see me he didn't have to listen. 0-12 months he was the best minding dog without a collar, then he got his first whiff of pussy and it was all downhill. Just like it happened to the rest of us.

Labs are smart and no matter what you do they will get collar smart, he's good 95% of the time. But the one time I have my back turned he'll chase another dog trying to play or fuck. I've been Told the older they get they mellow out.

We usually collar condition to "here" when the pups start wanting to play keep away, which is usually about 4-5 months. Then finish collar conditioning when they are a little more mature and have had more training. This is usually after FF, but not always.
