Re: Tranfering obedence to other family members
Dealing with family and the dog is difficult. Kinda like the telephone game. It shouldnt start out on a walk, but in the home with everyday life. Wait for food, wait for the door. Sit, down, stay. whatever you do. Work with each member individually. Make sure they are being consistent.

The continious on a Pro 200 is always a high stimulation at the desired dial setting. On my pro 500 I can't even feel a High 1 so the sensitivity will likely vary between individuals.
