Coastal Pet Products Herm. Sprenger Ultra Plus Prong Dog Training Collar 3.0MM Medium Chrome

Used correctly this is a wonderful product. A game changer! I have a highly reactive and strong dog; I am 64 and my Weimerauner is 7.5 months. He is intelligent and stubborn. He figured this collar out quickly and now I can walk him without fear of bodily injury.

We have 3 Gordon Setters, that like to go on long hikes.
They also like to pull their leashes tight, like they are taking you for a walk.
This type of collar is only worn while you are walking your dog. It doesn't hurt the dog, or leave any marks.
What it does do is discourage the dog from pulling. If they pull, they will receive a light pinch. We have used this type of collar for years, and never injured our dogs 🐕. They learn to walk at a pace that is comfortable for you, and for them.

These are it, the one most important thing in dog training. I always assumed they were choking and hurt the dog, well they do hurt a bit, like a mommy dog telling her pup how to behave. It doesn't take much for them to learn pack rules and know they need to respond to commands or get a little "snap." It is so necessary with kids as well, how can a small kid correct a dog that is nearly as big as them? We recently adopted a 7 mon old kelty mix, zero training, just a mess. 3 days in with this collar and she is learning fast, she is sitting, laying down (we use the foot command at the same time so they learn the visual & audible commands w/ the physical one & eventually all you need is the visual/audio), not jumping, barking less, less aggressive and more relaxed (some things take more time) and overall showing she will be a great cattle dog soon. Seriously if you have any behavioral issues to correct, you need this. I put it on my older dogs only when we're out with strangers/other dogs for "in case" and to make other people feel more secure around them. But it is rarely used for them now. Plus after awhile it does rub & irritate the skin so it's not comfortable to leave on constantly.

I couldn't walk my GSD, always pulling and went crazy if saw another dog. I'd given up. I couldn't afford $350/hour dog training (cheapest I found). So after Youtubing this product, figured its worth trying this. I didn't have high hopes...what are the odds that this simple product will work. It just arrived today. I just wanted him to try it and get the concept before we go outside. Walked around the garage, then the house, then the pool deck, then around the house. Wow! He was a different dog on a leash. No pulling, he walked with me, stopped when I did, turned with me. He learned the concept quickly and I I kept the leash loose. After a couple more such practices around the house and yard, I think we'll be ready to practice on the sidewalk. Baby steps. But it's an amazing product!

There are some fakes out there, but this one appears to be genuine. Rugged and of high quality. We have used them in the rain several times and they do not rust. I highly recommend these types of collars since they do not strangle! They only give a moderate correction to change the dogs' attention - Hopefully to you. Herm Sprenger is the only way to go.

Since we have two 60lb dogs it was a better value to buy 3 of these collars than to purchase the link sets.
