My dog is young but she already broke two collars, one of which was metal. What is the strongest collar I can get her that won’t be too unconfortable for her? Also, some guy kicked my dog after she snapped her collar and ran down the street and then threatened to call animal control on her. She has never done anything bad at all to anyone. Can he do that?
Train your dog not to pull. If she is pulling hard enough to break her collar then she is pulling hard enough to potentially damage her trachea and esophagus. Try using a properly fitted pinch collar on walks.
As far as other people harming your dog. Yes if they feel your dog is charging at them, threatening them etc they have a right to defend themselves by what ever means the feel necessary. Also in most areas if your dog gets loose and is chasing livestock it can legally be shot and killed. As far as him calling animal control he most defiantly can. It is your responsibility to keep your dog under control at all times. If she is breaking her collar and running off she is not under your control and you are in violation of the law
How effective are these electric remote dog training collars. Also I’m finding that there is a very large price difference between the UK available products and the products available direct from Chine. Where would be the best place to purchase it from. I have an 8 month old very lovable but naughty Weimaraner. “Casper”. The kids and I have sought of given him to much of a good thing and now he is getting out of hand Eg when asked to get off the sofa, he likes to show his pearly white teeth.
They are very effective. You just remotely deliver the static deterrent when he starts to get onto the sofa. Usually they are used for more serious issues than a dog being on a sofa though.
I love the range collar invisible fence product. It works better than any other fencing product. I have never used a shock collar as a training device because my only big dogs are goldens which train so easily.
I don’t think I would ever order a product directly from China though. I would pay extra to get it locally.
