Ultra-Plus Prong Dog Training Collar, 2.25 mm x 14" Neck Size, 2.25 mm x 16" Chain Length, Steel Chrome Plated Dog Prong Collar, Pinch Collar for Dogs, Dog Correction Collar

Before I purchased this prong collar I have did tons of research, and everyone all say the Herm Sprenger is the best effective collar. Yes there are several off brand collars out there that maybe cheaper and also may work, but I didn't want to cheap myself or my dog. I heard that the off brand prong collars can be faulty and poorly made and have sharp edges instead of round smooth edges. But we ain't here to talk about those we here to talk about this bad boy. I like to reference Tom Davis and Dog Daddy on youtube. Both of these guys are amazing which shows real dogs with reactive and pulling and aggressive dogs. My dog is a 4 year old German Shepard mix that I got from the shelter. Very friendly, but very reactive to things like cars, people and dogs moving by. His bark definitely gives off that I'm a aggressive dog, but really not. After doing my research from the two Trainers above I purchased the Herm Sprenger prong collar. Note there are mentioned of fakes out there so be sure to check the spelling and prongs edges. So the first day we wanted to see how he do without the prong collar. Which he pulled and was just doing his own thing. My Dog is about around 65 pounds and is pretty strong so I know my wife and 6 year old won't be able to walk him. I had to take out about 4 links off, my dogs neck about 18inches, the collar I got was 22inches, so I got extra link just in case. Mind you that it will take some time getting use to taking the collar on and off as you have to pinch pretty hard to pull off but once you do it a few times you get the hang of it. So I slapped the collar on my dog, and we begin training. The tip is to conduct U-turn correction which means if you see your dog leading ahead of you, you want to immediately U turn and pop the collar as you turning which your dog would immediately turn with you as the collar does a pinch pressure. For a good 10 mins of doing this I saw my dog do way less pulling. The tips I learned is that the dog needs a job to do. The dog wants to be led. If he can not be led he or she will assume command and do what they want. Hence you see some dogs pulling their owners. So it more of the dog taking the owner for a walk rather then the owner taking the dog for a walk. So the goal is to make sure your Dog is paying attention to you and you only. When you cut left your dog should cut left. Now note that timing the correction is key. I recommend you watch the youtube clips on Tom Davis and Dog Daddy. As for the second day of leash training, my dog only needed one correction that was at the very beginning of the walk. I did my U turn , all around in circles and stops and my dog was watching my every move. Not letting the leash extend to far to feel that pressure. My dog slows walk with me and you can see him looking back at me every other second to make sure I'm not trying to make a U turn or move. But definitely improved his walking on leash without pulling. You can see him checking in which is what I want from him. Mind you that during your corrections you may hear your dog yelp that is perfectly fine as that is part of the correction. Like example when your mom tells you don't do something and you do it and she give you a pop in the head. So next time when you in that same situation you think before doing it as you know if you do it youll get pop again. So the Dog have that same sense, they know if they do that wrong thing they will feel that pop. I know some people may think prong collar are inhumane or think that it hurts the dog. But If you properly and fitted correctly the prong collar can be a useful tool to correct misbehavior and communicate with your dog. Dogs don't know English so the collar can be used to help communicate what you trying to command your dog to do. As I mentioned I recommend that you watch youtube videos to see what I'm saying. But overall this product is a must have if you want to teach your dog to walk on the leash and to prevent the reactiveness of your dog.

Essa é a melhor coleira do gênero. Não machuca o cachorro, mas deve estar ajustada para que não fique muito justa. Uso apenas para treino e eles adoram!

Producto de excelente calidad, funciona muy bien

Hella long review but walk with me, haha. 🐶 I have hypermobile EDS and my joints ache severely every time after taking my dogs out or for a walk. We have a Border Collie mix and a Husky, they both pull but the Husky pulls to the point where I straight up can’t deal with him on the leash. We tried everything: treats, clickers, shorter leashes, and gentle leaders. The gentle leader worked until the Husky figured out he could just turn around and pull, which made going out a long process full of constant corrections and redirection. My boyfriend had graciously started solely taking them out so I’m not in pain, but I didn’t want to put that all on him or miss out on my babies having fun outside. I figured we had exhausted all options and this was just how life would be with our dogs, but after the Husky slipped out of his gentle leader on Halloween and made a run for it dressed up as a hot dog, I knew I needed to figured something out fast! After hours of searching and comparing, I decided to give this collar a try and when it showed up, my boyfriend thought I bought a torture device and honestly I was a little worried about it too. I took them out just ONE TIME to go potty, and it was MAGICAL!! Our Husky boy STOPPED PULLING!!! Even after getting the collar on him, he didn’t fuss around! The sizing chart and directions are very accurate: we measured his neck at 18” and added 2”. The 20” collar was perfect fit right out of the package, but can be easily adjusted by removing or adding links. The prongs on the links can be a little tricky at first, but get easier with use. As long as you have a little grip strength, it’s not that difficult to pop off/on. Other reviewers said to get the additional quick release thing, which I agree would be better in the long run if you have issues with hand strength, joint pain, or mobility. The chain, rings, and links feel very durable and there is no smell. I like that it’s just metal, so much easier to keep clean! I took them for a walk the next day and he did so good on the leash, no pulling or choking himself and no coughing!! 😭 I felt like it made him more aware of commands, he looked happy and confident for the first time! I was so impressed by this collar’s ability to distribute the pressure of him pulling without harming him that I returned the martingale collar we got for our other dog because she was coughing from pulling on the leash during our walk and buying her this one instead!!

That will help to teach your dog and keep your self safe. I got it after my dog run after a Bicycle rider and he pooled with him while raining and I broke my elbow unfortunately.
