FREE: best behavior collar!!

I think these collars are wonderful, if they are used correctly And if they are fitted correctly also.. Any training aid can be abused and used wrong. Its important to make sure that its fitted correctly and you are using it correctly as well.. ( you can buy extra links as well as remove links., to make sure this prong collar fits your dog,... I used to use it with my first lab, I used to hate walking her, it was exhausting, contant corrections, and after working wiith a trainer and this type of collar, our walks became much more pleasant. and eventually I no longer needed this collar at all..
Good Luck with this auction. :)"

You can always buy extra links to make it larger. These work GREAT though they look cruel they are not, regular choke chains can damage your dog. These are great for leash training though never leave them on your dog at all times. I have trained many dogs with these including my 10 pound Chihuahua who use to try to walk me LOL.

I got a Pit Bull who NEEDS this when I walk her! :) F & w :D

Choke chains are dangerous. Pinch collars are not. If you look at me wrong, I bruise. ~:^) I got this type of collar for my Lethal White Aussie as I have a bad back and she's a bad puller. Before I put it on her I put it on my arm in various places and pulled and yanked and you name it. It did not hurt and did not bruise my sensitive skin. It is a similar feeling to your dog of being corrected by their mother when they were young. It is always advisable to go to a trainer or other knowledgeable person to get a good fit for your dog...links can be removed or added. You can also buy tips for them if you want to be extra cautious.

i have a pitbull and all she does is pull she is very strong for the size she is she pulls me down stairs up stairs etc....

f&w

I could use this so bad! I have a small mastiff/lab, only 80lbs and I think that with a few extra links, this would fit him perfectly! We have tried everything else to keep him from pulling, but he has still yanked me down the stairs before. Now that I am pregnant, I don't even want to risk walking him down those stairs so he only gets to go out when my husband is home at lunch, once in the morning, and once in the evening. That, to me, is far worse for him than a pinchy collar.

These collars are excellent and save on your back as well as train your larger, stronger dogs from the time they are pups to walk along your side as all dogs should. I have owned a boxer and a pit bull that were the best behaved dogs I have ever met and the sweetest ever partially due to instating the use of these collars.

There are rubber "tips" you can place on the prongs if it is scratching their neck, but if it scratches their neck that means you need more "dog walk" training. If it weren't for these collars my dogs would have been all over the place even as little pups -- they don't hurt them one bit!!! This isn't animal cruelty -- this is to train for proper puppy etiquette when walking and meeting other puppies -- eventually you don't have to use the pronged collar at all if you keep up with it and train and walk your puppy everyday.

Great auction!! I still have mine from my pups but the only puppy I have is an 11 month old little boy that acts like a cute little puppy and we don't need THIS KIND of collar for him!! LOL.

Does it hurt the dog? My puppy is having a hard time with learning not to pull and he's getting big! :( thanks

i have a standard poodle who pulls i heard ths works good nice......

To JAOUC890: I think this color is too small for your American Bulldog. However I do HIGHLY recommend this type of collar. It is the only thing that worked so my pitbull doesn't pull me or make himself puke from pulling. Before when I used a regular choke chain, he would pull so hard he'd be coughing for days from the stress he put on his throat from pulling. The trainer and vet both said this type of collar gets the best results for the least damage to the all muscle dogs, who just love to pull pull pull no matter how much it hurts. It hurts, but its a pinch. They get pinched and quickly change their behavior. Hope that helps :)

To JASON580: This collar fits my dog up to about 50lbs. I'm pretty sure you dog is too big.
To RICOISHBIC: I think this collar is too small for you dog. I don't know that this collar would make the urge to attack someone, it certainly was an attitude adjustment for my dog, but he was eager not aggressive. I do think it helps behavior modification easier. I would definitely suggest trying this type of collar out.

Hey everyone! Thanks for bidding :)
To Rin5: I think this would be great for your puppy. I got my pitbull puppy a local shelter, when he was 10 weeks old. He was already then a strong boy, and the older he got the stronger he got. Before he was six months, he was trying to walk me, instead of me walking him when we'd leave the house. I was against choke chains of any kind when I got him because I thought they were cruel, but when I took my dog to a trainer the first thing, she told me to get was this kind of a choke chain. I was really upset, but she continued to tell me about a lot of dogs on regular choke chains injuring their necks and throats. I spoke to my vet, because I wanted his opinion and he told me that he sees more injuries from regular choke chains than this kind. He said that some dogs will pull themselves till they are actually puking (which my puppy did many times) and create neck/throat injuries. He explained just as the trainer did, it pinches their neck as they pull. It was hard to use for both me and my puppy at first. He'd limper and shriek the first couple times he pulled but he quickly learned that pulling created that pain, and his attitude chained immediately. He became a great walking partner then. When he outgrew that one, I immediately bought the next size up. If I don't have this collar on him, he is just too strong and pulls me.

will it work for my rot hes about 2 but i can never take him on walks or anything without him runnin or tryin to attact someone

will it fit a full grown bloodhound?

I have an american bulldog who is soooo hard to walk.... I use a choke chain, but he will strangle himself if necessary to pull me along to where he wants. SUPER frustrating! ... Do you think this can work? I am afraid he will KILL himself just to get whatever he wants. This dog is 80 pounds of PURE MUSCLE
