i have a friend who was going to put that on his dog, but after he put it on his neck and tried it on himself, he decided that he is not going to torture the dog with it because it's too mean.

hopefully the ones you guys are using is different?
There is a differnce between the ones that send out a shock and those that make a sound or spray.

Shock ones are not ok but and sound and spray ones are in a pinch to keep a dog in its home while you work on teaching it to feel safe and not have sepration anxiety is a ok stop gap but should not be the end all be all and trainig should happen with it.
