pinch dog training collar
You know as you look for a collar for your dog you have quite a selection. I know that you have the cloth collars, leather collars, pincher collars, and choker collars. Now all the collars have bonuses and they also have negatives. I know the choke collar has quite a few positives and some big negatives that I found out the hard way.
The first positive that I have about the choker collar is that they will help you keep your dog close to you and in control while you're walking him. I know that when my dog would start to wander away when they were supposed to be in a heel and close to me they would instantly come back to my side when the collar started to tighten up on them. This is nice because it helps you control your dog better without having to exert much effort on your part.
The next positive is that the choker collar can be used to let your dog know that your boss. Now granted I do not like using a choker collar for anything at all, but you are able to use a choker collar to help teach your dog that you are boss. I know that some training programs will recommend you use either a choker collar or pinch collar because they give you a better control over your dog and how he is going to act.
Now the main negative that I have for the choker collar is that they are not quick release. So if your dog gets tangled up in something and is starting to choke themselves you will have to release them from the object. With a quick release collar if your dog starts exerting enough pressure on the collar you will then have the collar break free from your dog's neck. A quick release is a great feature if you leave your dog's collar on when you are not around him.
The other negative is that the choker collar can choke your dog to death. I know this from personal experience and lost one of my own dogs because of the choker collar getting tangled up in my other dog's mouth while they were playing. Now she choked to death even with people trying to free her from the collar. So you do have to be wary of that feature of the choker collar and always remove them when you are not going to be around to keep an eye on your dog.
Overall I would have to say the choker collar might work for you and your dog. It all just depends on the situation that you have for your dog. However, before purchasing a choker collar I would heavily weigh on the bonuses that they provide versus the negatives that they have as well.
