I did read your post and I was not sure if you had gone from tone to zap.

Thanks for clarifying that for me.... but and it is a little but you can get the tone correction without the zap at all.
You know the consequences and I know them but many have not clue what they are and have any idea that there are any.
I have seen one of those used to a dog going to a fear bite... not fun.

It is what is called an interrupter to stop behavior but it does not teach the dog what to do after and it leaves the dog in the dark and a stopped behavior will crop up else where as a result and it will be a negative one.
so after the stop action teach what you want instead do not leave a hole the dog needs to plug with something.
Use of these on a dog with fear is not a good idea as it creates more fear and the dogs that are being talked about are all showing lack of social skills and fear aggression.
