Are You Nuts? Dog Obedience Collar – Be Careful With Them!
A dog obedience collar can really hurt your dog. I want to tell you a little story. I can hear you now, “oh know, another one, lol” When I was a kid, a dog was walking with his owner and out of no where the dog jumped me. I remember how the owner pulled the dog’s leash that was attached to his collar and you could tell it really hurt the dog. The dog was whining and in pain. I felt so bad for the dog so dog owners watch it with those collars. To find out more about these collars continue reading.
* The flat collar is used in clicker training. This is a type of dog obedience collar that is good for small dogs, but they lift the dog in the air so when you are trying to get them to listen to you they won’t because they are distracted. Wouldn’t you be distracted if you all of a sudden was lifted in the air?
* The slip collar has another name, which is called the choke chain. My god, this one is so dangerous! It is actually made of metal links, and nylon. There is a metal ring at the end of it. This particular collar is not in use as much, because on how dangerous it is. When you pull it the collar makes a fast clicking noise to get the dog’s attention. You have to be so careful with this one though, because you can choke the dog.
* The martingale collar is made of nylon that when you pull the leash it tightens around the dog’s neck. Another one that is dangerous! When you place this collar around the dog’s neck it will fit loose, but when you pull it that is when it tightens so be very careful with this one.
* Prong collars looks just like the martingale collar, but it is made of metal links. Inside the collar there are prongs that will stop the dog from moving forward, and causes the dog to experience temporary pain. Again, you have to be careful with prong collars, because when you pull it your dog will be going through discomfort.
* Shock collars also have another name, which is the e-collar. It receives a signal from a device that the dog owner operates. Then, an electrical shock goes from the collar to the dog. What is dangerous about this one is, the owner can change the different amount of high level shocks he can send to the collar. He can increase it to such a high level and hurt the dog. There are a lot of places where this collar is banned for the reasons mentioned above.
* The leash is a dog obedience collar that connects from the handler to the dog. This one is made of nylon, metal or even leather. Usually it is 6 feet in length, but you can get it shorter or longer if you want. This one is used if you are trying to get a dog to listen to you if you are calling them from far away.
* Head halters are very similar to what is used on a horse. It looks like a muzzle and it stops the dog from pulling on its leash, but when you pull it the dog’s neck can get injured. There has been reports that this one causes a lot of harm to the dog.
As you can see, there are 7 different types of dog collars. If you are going to use a dog obedience collar, please be careful that you don’t hurt your dog ok.
All the best!

Do haltis and gentle leaders TEACH a dog proper leash behavior?
I know they physically deter dogs from pulling, but after a dog has worn one for a while will they have actually learned how to walk properly so they can wear a regular flat collar?
I’ve always used choke or prong collars when training my dogs and will continue to do so as they are an excellent tool when fitted and used correctly. I just always see these dogs being walked around like they’re horses and I wander if they’re actually learning anything.
i always start my dogs on flat collars then either move to a choke or prong collar depending on circumstances and the individual dog.
Choke and prong collars, when used correctly, do not harm a dog.
Personally, I would stick with what you’ve been doing. I’ve used prong collars and had great success with them. With some of the dogs that were in my training classes and dogs walking around the store, as soon as the leaders came off/slipped off the dog bolted. I think most people would agree, that is not proper leash training. In my opinion, the most important part of leash training is for your dog to obey YOU, not the collar/leader/whatever. The prong collars act more like a “bite” from the pack leader, which helps the dog obey the person on the other end of the leash. It sounds like you’re familiar with prong collars, so you’re probably well aware of what I mean.
In short, stick with what you know works. That’s what dog training is partially about; finding a humane way that works specifically for you and your dog.
Hope this helps.
