I have nothing against a prong collar......used properly, it will not hurt and is a good training tool. I am not for choke chains or E-Collars. A reguale leather collor is not real effective and can even be dangerous if the dog somehow gets part of it in their mouth and can't get it out. A Harness is great on a trained dog, but difficult to train a dog with. Carlo still wears his Prong on walks.....I know I am going against the majority here, but thats my story and I am sticking to it. Basil and Caper's little Prongs are used in class and walks, and cost over $35 each because they are so small. They do not pull with it on, and a jentle tug gets their attention. I think most of you know I try my best to do what is best for the dogs. |
