Proper choice of training collars

Let's now evaluate the different collars that are used by our company, and maybe we can help you find the right choice.

1) Prong training collar - I train dogs with prong collars. I tell all my clients that the use of this type of collar not only gets your training point across, but saves your dog a lot of throat damage from choke collars. There are very few dogs that I would not train with this type of collar.

The biggest problem with a prong collar is that most people do not know how to fit a dog correctly with this collar. Prong collars allow the owner to give a mild correction during training and gain complete control during training. Miracles can be achieved when this collar is used correctly.

2) Choke chain collar - This type of collar is the most popular and the one that does the most damage to your dog. See when you use the choke chain and go to give your dog a correction, the collar is designed to choke your dog. Repeated choking of your dog will cause panic and distress as well as lack of oxygen, which causes the dog a lot of pain and confusion. We never use a choke collar.

3) Flat collar - We use a flat collar after the dog is under complete control and when we teach protection work. When a dog is fully trained with the prong collar, then we move to the flat collar, then to off-leash training.

4) Electronic training collars - These are to be used only by a trained handler and I would never suggest using one without proper education.

5) Bark training collars are a safe and effective way to stop this very annoying habit. If you can not train your dog to stop barking, then your next choice is to seek a trainer or buy a bark training collar. We sell these types of collars. If you are local, we can help with a rental.

We offer all the above collars for sale. Visit our product page at www.mydogneedshelp.com and place your order today.
