[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My feisty sled dog needs a covered prong collar with martingale and no amount of leash training will teach them not to pull like crazy and injure me or give himself tracheal collapse. I've also tried electronics collars, that give a mild electric jolt - mild, as in, I've tried it on myself first before putting it on my dog, but their ruff is so voluminous, they don't feel the zap half the time: those work only for short-haired dogs. Don't let the "positive only" people force you to lose your dog, OP. You've got to do what's best in your specific situation. Most sleek-headed dogs need martingales, and a martingale will not hurt your dog. [/quote] Why di you put positive trainers in quotes? Any training method used incorrectly will not work. Even " balanced" trainers say this! To the op I use a harness but I have a connector ( can't remember the name ) which connects to the collar and prevents him from backing out.[/quote]
