Choice of the most effective style of dog training collar for your personal training objectives is just step one. You also need to make sure it is the correct size and that you know how to use it correctly. Even the very best collar may not be suitable if it's not employed properly.

Varieties of Dog Training Collars

Dog training collars include prong collars, head halters, choke collars, electronic collars. Dog harnesses and standard pet collars do the job fine for their designed purpose, but are not regarded as "training collars" and so will not be covered here.

Prong collars have the appearance of a thing from a medieval torture chamber that would be quite painful. Used properly, these are pretty humane. Prong dog training collars were originally constructed from metal prongs linked with each other in chain fashion. These days they're also offered made out of plastic which is recommended by many. These kinds of collars control the dog by means of slightly "pinching" the neck when the handler pulls on the lead. If utilized over aggressively, they can injure so caution should be used.

Head halters like the Haiti and Gentle Leader halters resemble and function in a fashion similar to harnesses intended for horses. They operate by means of directing the dogs' path. The dogs' body naturally follows the head and a harness does a very good job of controlling the head. While they may appear to be very restrictive, the dog easily becomes accustomed to them. They are especially effective in controlling aggressive dogs.

Choke collars remain popular and are recommended for use in many 4H dog training programs despite the controversy surrounding their use. Used correctly, they are acceptable dog training collars, however are easy to misuse. When they are placed on the dog incorrectly, if links come to be twisted or if too much force is employed by the handler, they can, indeed, become instruments of torture. Personally, I discontinued using choke collars years ago and will never go back to them. There are so many better dog training collars readily available.

Electronic dog collars are designed to give the dog a slight zap on command from the handler. The power can be adjusted from a small buzz or tingle to get the dogs' attention to a more severe jolt. These shouldn't be used on tiny or timid dogs and only after discussion of your situation with a reputable trainer. Shock collars can easily harm your dog if used carelessly.

Whatever your own personal requirements, you'll find the proper collar from the a wide variety of dog training collars available on the web. Take a few minutes to search our site and change your difficult dog into an agreeable,well behaved friend.
