Choice of the most effective type of dog training collar for your personal training objectives is only step one. You also must make sure it is the proper size and that you know how to utilize it properly. Even the best collar may not be appropriate if it is not used properly.

Kinds of Dog Training Collars

Dog training collars include prong collars, head halters, choke collars, electronic collars. Dog harnesses and standard pet collars work fine for their designed purpose, but aren't considered "training collars" thus will not be covered in this article.

Prong collars have the look of something from a middle ages torture chamber that would be quite painful. Used properly, they are quite humane. Prong dog training collars were to begin with made up of metallic prongs linked to one another in chain fashion. These days they are also offered made out of plastic material that is preferred by many. These types of collars control your dog by means of slightly "pinching" the neck when the handler pulls on the lead. If used over aggressively, they're able to cause pain so caution should be used.

Head halters such as the Haiti and Gentle Leader halters resemble and function in a fashion much like harnesses used for horses. They function by directing the dogs' path. The dogs' body naturally follows the head and a harness really does an exceptionally good job of controlling the head. Whilst they might appear to be overly restrictive, the dog quickly becomes accustomed to them. They are particularly helpful in curbing aggressive dogs.

Choke collars continue to be popular and are recommended for use in numerous 4H dog training programs in spite of the controversy surrounding their use. Used properly, they are satisfactory dog training collars, however are very easy to misuse. If they are put on the dog incorrectly, if links become twisted or if an excess of force is used by the handler, they can, without a doubt, become instruments of torture. For me personally, I discontinued using choke collars years ago and will never go back to them. There are many much better dog training collars on the market.

Electronic dog collars are intended to give the dog a small shock on command from the handler. The intensity can be adjusted from a slight buzz or tingle to get the dogs' notice to a more serious jolt. These should never be used on tiny or timid dogs and only after discussion of your situation with a professional trainer. Shock collars can easily cause harm to your dog if utilized carelessly.
