Dog Prong Pinch Collar-Large

Works great, much more humane than a choke collar for someone who doesn't use a choke collar properly (like nearly everyone). It's so easy, a child could use it. You don't need to correct the dog because they pull once and then figure out that is NOT the thing to do. It's much easier than getting tired arms from wrestling a stubborn dog even if you do know how to use a choke chain properly. They get the message very quickly and give in. I don't know why people get down on these like they're some kind of torture device. Choking a dog while it's dragging you down the street is torture. Not to mention the number of dogs that end up in shelters with little cards that say "given up because owner didn't have time for training." I think a lot of people are ill-informed. It looks wicked, but it's not. Try it on your own arm first and you will see. It's not going to poke into their skin or anything. It's very well made.

We had purchased this as a replacement collar for our boxer. He is a rescue and is very dominant. That being said, this collar comes undone way too easily. The interlocking prongs have separated on several occasions. If you have a large dog that needs a strong collar this is not it!

This collar is so hard and stiff that it is impossible for me to squeeze the prongs together for release. In frustration, I handed it to my husband, who also struggled to get the collar off our Golden Retriever. The poor dog scratches like crazy when the collar is on. I regard it as unnecessarily harsh on the dog. This is by far the worst prong collar I have ever owned over the past 10 years.

one of the Prongs came unattached during a walk. I could put it back together but i had to put it together and bend it so it does not happen again. other than that this product has been great

Keeps my yellow lab from pulling so hard!!

LOVE this collar. it does NOT hurt them despite the torturous look of it. they walk really nice with it. If they pull for choke mode, it does not injury them. they will stop pulling relatively quickly and stay calm. This is the second dog I have used it for. As they get older, and no longer really need the pinch side, you can just turn it inside out to use.

Awful, poor quality and just not good at all

I had trouble with the collar slipping apart at the anchor link when I received it. I contacted the company, they quickly sent a replacement. Went on our first walk tonight and it works like a charm on my 6 month old lab. Great product, even better customer service.
