Types of Training Dog Collars

Training collars are safe and effective. There are different types of training dog collars.

Choosing the right one for your dog, however, is not that easy. You have to wade through many different kinds from different manufacturers. Two of the more common dog training collars are the ‘choke’ chain collar or slip collar and the ‘prong’ collar or pinch collar. The name alone will tell you what it does. This is the reason some look at dog training collars as cruel.

• Stimulation Collars or Dog Training Shock Collars (also known as electronic dog collars or e-collars)
• Tone Correction Units (which use a loud tone rather than an electrical impulse or ’shock’)
• Dog Training Collars that have both impulse and tone corrections
• There’s also the no bark collar (either using an automatic ‘bark-sensor’ or a remote/hand-held unit. These may use the electrical pulse or tone, or citronella/lemon-scented sprays to control nuisance barking.
