I made the mistake of using the beeper part of the collar as a warning, instead of just zapping her. Before I started zapping her then she ignored any commands until she heard the beep, then she would listen. It took a lot of re-training before she stopped waiting for the beep. Piece of advice, never bother using the beep or vibrations,
