How To Put On A Prong/Pinch Collar

Both dogs were rescued from nearby shelters when their owners did not claim them, thanks to BAD RAP. The collars are custom, from pacocollars.com and from collarmania.com. The prong collar is Herm Sprenger brand, which is a high-quality brand, but like all equipment requires proper care (ie, don't store it unused in a damp, sandy area for months on end like I did).

This video is just about how to properly fit a prong collar. No matter what equipment you choose, it needs to be fitted correctly and also used correctly, preferably with a trainer's guidance. I made this video because I have seen many people with too-large prong collars down around their dog's shoulders, or sliding a prong collar OVER their dog's head/eyes to put it on!

@kartastic123 prong collars are not painful, ive tested every tool ive ever used on myself before risking using them on dogs, it's to represent a bite (correction) from another dog, and is only mild discomfort unless you're using it wrong and yanking on the lead, that is dangerous, although i don't believe it's the right choice for every dog and i won't use them unless all other options have failed me.

@FiestyKiki Yes. Any training tool, whether a prong collar, a head collar, or a front-clip harness is just that-- a training tool, to be used during a training program. They can all help owners physically manage their dogs as well, but all can have negative effects (in a variety of ways) if misused.

Prong and choke collars can do much more damage than just yanking and choking a dog.

@skip2mylizzle And thats how it should be when you're not correcting the dog.

Nice dogs... the white one knows what's shes holding

I thought the collar looked a little loose

Never tied down your dog with this collar, it's only to be used with supervision. Also if your dog does not respond to this collar, stop using it.
