| Is this for a Yorkie? Why would you need a training collar for a Yorkie, if you are referring to one? Yorkies should n e v e r wear collars that are attached to a leash. Check out the sites for collapsed trecheas. Some Yorkies have that and have never used a collar, but the chances are greater if you do use one.

| I would never use any kind of choke collar on a Yorkie and I wouldn't use pinch/prong collars either. How about an Easy Walk Harness?

| You should never train with a collar on a yorkie. Even a body harness that goes across their chest is harmful. Use a "step in" harness for walks. If you are training you can use one of the muzzle trainers. We use it and it works. Your leash is attached under the chin, so it never chokes them. Good luck. |
