Selection of the best kind of dog training collar for your personal training goals is just the initial step. You also must ensure it is the right size and that you understand how to use it properly. Even the best collar may not be suitable if it's not used properly.

Varieties of Dog Training Collars

Dog training collars include prong collars, head halters, choke collars, electronic collars. Dog harnesses and standard dog collars perform fine for their intended purpose, but aren't viewed as "training collars" thus will not be included in this article.

Prong collars possess the appearance of something from a middle ages torture chamber that would be really painful. Used properly, these are quite humane. Prong dog training collars were initially made up of metal prongs linked with one another in chain fashion. Currently they're also obtainable made out of plastic material which is recommended by many. These collars control the dog by slightly "pinching" the neck when the handler pulls on the lead. If utilized over aggressively, they're able to hurt so care should be used.

Head halters such as Haiti and Gentle Leader halters resemble and function in a manner much like harnesses used for horses. They function by directing the dogs' path. The dogs' body naturally follows the head and a harness does a remarkably good job of controlling the head. Although they might appear to be very restrictive, the dog quickly gets accustomed to them. They are particularly useful in managing aggressive dogs.

Choke collars continue to be popular and are also recommended for use in many 4H dog training programs despite the debate around their use. Utilized properly, they are good dog training collars, however are very easy to misuse. When they are put on the dog incorrectly, if links become twisted or if too much force is used by the handler, they can, without a doubt, become tools of torture. Personally, I discontinued using choke collars long ago and will never return to them. There are too many much better dog training collars on the market.

Electronic dog collars are designed to give the dog a slight zap on command of the handler. The strength can be adjusted from a small buzz or tingle to get the dogs' notice to a more severe jolt. These should never be used on little or fearful dogs and only following discussion of your situation with a reputable trainer. Shock collars can easily harm your dog if used thoughtlessly.
