These collars are often ineffective even in the larger breeds (especially high pain threshold breeds such as Malamutes..etc), who will "endure" the shock repeatedly and run through the fence.
I personally find it abusive to any animal...but that is JMO.

I don't like them either and would never use one. Patti
