The training place I went to required a collar for puppies, and choke chain for adult dogs. I used a harness for both classes. The puppy trainer had no problem with it, the adult dog trainer was extremely annoyed and nearly kicked me out of the class. Because of that, I will never go back to that training center.
I looked around some more and found a different training place that was more focused on positive reinforcement instead of harsh punishment. Jax is pretty much done training, but if I get another puppy, I will go to the positive reinforcement place. |
