 Really like this collarOct 12, 2007
By TSS
I bought a prong collar from the pet store. Then I researched them online and read that the Herm Sprenger collars were better quality and had rounded edges that were better for the dog. This brand was highly recommended by animal experts. I returned my store bought collar and bought this one. First of all, I definitely like the snap-on feature. It makes it so much easier to put on. I use this with my 2 70-lb labs. I clip the leash to BOTH rings so that it does not tighten, but still works as they do still feel it if they start to pull. This works for my dogs and is the recommended way to start using this type of collar. If needed, you can then clip it to only the one ring so it tightens. From day one, they have stopped most of their pulling. I also have treats that I put in my left had and give them while we're walking every so often, so that helps. They now walk by my side for the most part. I used to HATE taking them on walks. I've taken them every day this week and it is actually enjoyable now.

It works and it's recommended by many trainersDec 17, 2009
By M. Lawson
As it was explained to me by my vet and by trainers, large dogs have very thick muscles and skin in the neck. Because of this they barely notice any correction/pulling action that you make when training. Most dogs will learn to walk with any type of lead after enough training, but if something unexpected comes along you might have a hard time maintaining control if your dog is large and strong. Regular chain choke collars are more uncomfortable for the dogs because it catches their fur in the links, even if they are not pulling. This collar simply applies a more direct pressure, which the dog notices, rather than the constriction of a chain choke collar.
Because I live in a rural area with deer, etc. my vet suggested that I use this collar so that I'm not pulled down by the dogs if they attempt to chase other animals. Even the most well behaved dog can get overly excited with the natural instincts kick in. My dogs used to do some pulling at the start of our walks with a regular collar. With this one they don't make any attempt to pull at all. They have never shown any distress with this collar on, never pulled, never any injury, nothing. It hangs loosely around their necks while we walk. They absolutely do not mind wearing it at all. They sit patiently and wait for me to put it on. They walk nicely right by my side with no tension at all on the leash. If you purchase this collar remember that you only put it on before the walk and take it off after. No choke or training collar should be left on all of the time.

Quick release training collarSep 19, 2009
By Cecilia
"Springer"
Quick release feature on the collar makes it easy to secure collar on pet and the prong ends are smooth. This product is a safe way to handle a very active pet, sort of a power steering effect.

Prong collarDec 15, 2009
By H. Coddington
The collar is sturdy and well made. A friend who trains dogs recommended this brand and we've been happy with them (own 2 [one small/one medium]). Highly recommend this product to dog owners whose animals take them for a walk!

 Does the job, but don't trust it.Dec 12, 2010
By Lindsey D
I've always used a pinch collar on my Doberman. Recently I moved to a higher traffic area, downsizing his yard, and getting the old collar over his head for every outing was not working for either of us. This accomplishes the easy on/off, but I'm a little disappointed. The prongs are not as rounded as his other collar, and it has come unlatched before when we were on a walk which is scary. Wouldn't really recommend this particular one, especially for the price.
