Default Re: OH NO!!! The dreaded DOG topic again.

I now appreciate the title of this thread. You all make it sound like we electrocuted our dog. This is so far from the truth. During the training session the collar provides a gentle vibration that gets the dog’s attention. I was there, saw it and (barely) felt it. This is a heck of a lot more humane than, say, a choke collar. Again, folks, if you have not experienced this, you may not want to pass judgment on this training aid. That’s as gentle and respectful as I can get on this subject. Just know that the term “shock collar” is extremely unfortunate.
