BLACKBOB 9 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Worked on mine and then did the same left it on after turning it off, trouble was it put two holes in the dogs neck where the two pins touched the neck , so i had to take it off and the dog started barking again. I was under the impression that this could happen, but only if the shock treatment is left on. # I think i will try out the dummy ones you can buy, if this happens to my dog.

FastDogz 155 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Wudnt use a shock collar i am dead against them but again thats just my view - there is better ways to train ok maybe not easier for you but better way - You can get spray collars that spray somthing horrible out when the dog barks - Or how about a good bit of old fashioned training Quote Link to post
Terrier Stuff 0 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I dont like the shock collars but the citronella ones are good I heard of a shock collar that shocked the dog when a differant one barked...:D:D Quote Link to post

I agree that training collars are often used by inexperienced trainers as a "quick fix" but good old fashioned training is a bit difficult if your out and the dog is barking. One thing I always disagree with is the notion that citrolella collars are more humane Whats more humane 1. A quick shock on a low level that gives the dog a sharp correction......or....... 2. A citronella collar that squirts fluid up a dogs primary sense which burns after the initial spray :whistle: Quote Link to post
Guest Haggler Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Just had a look at the range of collars-------there's dozens on the market. Can anybody recommend one particular brand? One of the best. http://www.mightypets.com/product.asp?3=788 Haggler Quote Link to post
