Dog Training: A Guide To Dog Training Collars - Part 3

Dog Training Collar

An innovation of the choke chain dog training collar is the Snap-around choke.


Hey Dog Loving Friend,

Most of the collars we've discussed so far are worn around the dog’s neck...

The snap-around is like the choke chain, but designed to be a lot more 'dog-friendly' so as not to damage a dog’s windpipe:

• The snap-around choke is very snugly fit and it is worn up high the dog’s neck
• When the leash is jerked, it doesn't damage the dog’s windpipe
• And doesn't jolt the dog as much...

These days there are also dog training collars that are worn on the head:

• These type of collars are fitted on the dog’s head with a leash attached under the dog’s muzzle. The advantage of this collar, where the dog’s head is, its body will follow
• The dog may not adjust that easily to wearing these kinds of dog collars and they may look like a pony halter or a muzzle

Another type of collar available is the Pronged or the German Pinch dog training collar:

• This type of collar is especially made for dogs that are wild, unruly and difficult to control
• These collars apply pressure on the protruding areas in the dog’s neck therefore it effectively catches the dog’s attention
• This dog training collar does not damage the dog’s windpipe

In part 4, we'll take a closer look at the electronic dog training collar, should be an eye opener.

Enjoy and have fun.
