[P-Chan]

i've never seen a mini pinch/prong collar (still looking here) kasagaran ako na kitan i think it's for medium dogs.. do you think okay ni for small dog? (min pin to be exact)

again, prong collars are for "extremely wild" dogs, usually medium to large breeds. this collar is only used when there are no more available remedies to correct behavioral problems.

But with min-pins, i think chokers will do as long as it is properly used.

Prong collar is created to "hurt" your dog. A quick "pop" and the prongs pinch the dogs skin hard, which leads to instant negative reinforcement for the behavior. But that's not all. There are unintended behavior consequences with using prong collars as well. Increased aggression and anxiety has been observed. Whatever a dog is looking at or going after when they are "popped", its possible the dog will make a negative association with that object. What if the object is a child playing across the street? Similar negative associations have been observed with shock collars.

another thing is that the pressure applied with a prong collar can lead to neck, back, trachea, and esophogus problems. old school trainers mostly use this and of course, they are using negative reinforcements in training dogs. now. more trainers embrace the opposite - positive reinforcement.

A Study on Prong Collars and Choke Collars was done in Germany:
100 dogs were in the study. 50 used choke and 50 used prong.
The dogs were studied for their entire lives. As dogs died, autopsies were performed.
Of the 50 which had chokes, 48 had injuries to the neck, trachea, or back. 2 of those were determined to be genetic. The other 46 were caused by trauma.
Of the 50 which had prongs, 2 had injuries in the neck area, 1 was determined to be genetic. 1 was caused by trauma.
