Herm Sprenger Pinch Collar, 16-Inch, Medium 3.0 Millimeter

I'm very pleased with this item. Works just as advertised and is made out of high quality material.

The only reason I didn't give this item 5 stars is because it should come with instructions on how to properly use the collar preferably a DVD like the halti-harnesses come with. A prong collar should not inflict pain, choke the dog, and MUST be fitted properly before using it. This is not a collar you slip over the dogs head and expect to work well. First of all, if you can slip this collar over your dogs head, you are causing harm to your dog as it is fit too loose, making this collar a dangerous device. Nearly everyone who purchases this collar will need to remove at least a few links so that it will fit correctly. When fit properly and used properly, this can be a wonderful device for both dog and person.

PLEASE, I'm begging you if you decide to purchase a prong collar, be it this one or any other collar, find a trainer to show you how to properly use it or at the very least, go to Youtube and type in "how to properly fit a prong collar" as there are some decent instructional videos out there. If you don't know what you're doing, you will hurt your dog and potentially make whatever behavior you want to fix even worse. For both you and your dogs sake, PLEASE educate yourself before using one of these!

If this product came with better instructions or a DVD on how to properly use it, I would have given this 5 stars.

Works very well. All I would use on a larger breed. Choke collars just won't do on a strong dog, the dog can pull and if you're constantly pulling thats a problem. This IS NOT cruel, you don't need to pull very hard to get the dog's attention immediately. Once this goes on, a stubborn dog will realize it's a different ballgame and the pulling will cease. They may protest at first as they are certainly disappointed. My dog doesn't mind it at all. I leave it on in the house with a tab so I can correct him if need be whenver necessary. He is very headstrong. A must in my opinion. This brand also is the best. Pet store brands are cheap. Stay away from them. The links CAN come loose, if this happening you just need to bend the links back into a position where they will not become unhinged. This can happen over a bit of time but it isn't hard to solve and keep it moving along and it does not happen except very rarely.. a couple times with my current collar which I've had for 3 years.

I've used this collar on my German Shepherd puppy since she was about 3 months old. She's 7-month old now and weighs about 55 lbs. It has worked great -she never pulls on the leash. If she wanders around, a little tug brings her right back. This is a high-quality collar made from stainless steel, and I've never had it come loose. Make sure to use the right number of links. Some uninformed people think this kind of collar would induce pain on the dog. It obviously doesn't because my puppy is never afraid of it. It's probably even more comfortable than conventional collars. I highly recommend it.

We bought this for our Brittany, Coco who is a rescue dog who had never walked on a leash before we got her. We have tried everything to train her. Much as we dislike using a pinch collar, it is the only way we can walk her without ending up with severe shoulder pain. The collar is a lot more solid than the previous one we bought from the pet store. It was easy to remove two links to make it for her neck.
