@weirddoggies >fuck prong collars
probably not the right place or time but I'd like to discuss this one with you if you're up for it. I've worked with professionals for many hours and across many sessions, some including me, some not.
Both dogs choke themselves w/o prongs.

They don't strain against the prongs and I don't have to pop them _if_ I use prong collars. They strain and choke themselves on the regular collars. A solution that only
@weirddoggies can implement and other pros w/ multiple hundreds of hours cannot is not a viable standard.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

prongs really look scary but when used appropriately, for the right dog, they are by far the most humane and effective tool for leash control that I know about.
-
They don't hurt the dogs at all if they are fitted properly and the dog isn't missing fur around their neck. They don't mind wearing the prong collars all day although I do usually take them off.
-
If I put a harness or gentle leader they're pawing at their muzzle constantly or scrambling around getting tangled trying to get out of them. Am I to ignore the apparent expressed desires of my dogs here and force them into something they hate in lieu of something they don't?
-
They get excited and present themselves when I grab the prong collars. If they feared them or felt they would cause them pain they would _not_ do this. They evince aversion to other such things.
