Herm Sprenger Stainless Steel Prong Dog Training Collar Ultra-Plus Pet Pinch Collar No-Pull Collar for Dogs Anti Pull Training Collar Made in Germany 2.25mm x 16in Small

I had seen lots of prong collar videos on u tube. Every video I watched from dog trainers recommended this Herm Sprenger brand prong collar for it's craftsmanship and quality of this product. Easy to put on too once you get the hang of it. They even emphasized how the rounded prong ends would not hurt your dog. I was a little skeptical that it would work for me as well as demonstrated from the professional dog trainers. I wanted to know exactly how to train my 40 pound dog using this collar. She was such a puller on the leash that my husband and I would cut our walks short. This collar is amazing! I fit it on her as instructed in the videos I had watched and ..... Here We Go.....I only gave a slight correction on the collar and wow I could hardly believe how my dog reacted with this collar on. It was not painful for her at all. She went right into heel position easily. A few light corrections along the way to let her know what I wanted and we were off on a super relaxing walk. Thanks Herm Springer for giving us and our dog the right training tool to walk our dog with confidence and comfort. Thanks Amazon for getting it to us a day ahead of the expected delivery date. I usually don't do many reviews but I want to let people know how this prong changed our walking routine.

Great collar, definitely recommend getting a quick release for it. Makes much easier to put on.

Works like it is suppose to.

this is my second one; great quality 100% recommended

With a young malinois - walking on a leash was a problem. All the positive reinforcements and all the training treats in the world were useless - we couldn’t even leave the court. (Ugh!)The second this this collar was on - it’s like someone switched the dog - she started to listen! I think two times she tried to pull, that was it. Today we did about 2mi LOOSE leash walk around our neighborhood. In all this time I think I did two gentle nudges that was it. And not only it was a loose leash walk, but it was almost perfect heal as well. And no smelling or grabbing geese poop or anything else from the ground.I guess the point is - Like any tool in the toolbox, prone collar needs to be used properly. Never ever ever do you want to use this for a punishment, only for gentle corrections to teach your friend how to behave properly.Oh yeah, it is very important to make sure that it has been fitted properly. Too small - you going to choke or injure your dog. To lose - it’s not going to work properly. There are several videos on YouTube, that explain how to do it.Good luck!

Replaced one that worked well for 20 years. Best training collar on the market.

Yep, I was one of the skeptics. My Boxer girl is my baby, but she is over the top high energy when we went for a walk, and she pulled my arm out of my socket.......screeeeech! I had to put a stop to this as I am disabled and she weighs 52 lbs. Before you say it....yes, I have been working on her since she was a tiny thing about 12 lbs...walking on a leash, tried a no pull harness...those are a joke! I thought, well I will wait until she matures a bit and learns her words. She is extremely intelligent and knows many words. She is 16 mos. old now. I am training her to be my helper girl. I also trained my first Boxer girl for this role.Enter....the HS Prong Collar and Walla! Instant Changling from extreme monster puller to gentle walking by left side lamb.Her neck is unharmed because she never once lunged or pulled while wearing this collar. She sits politely waiting for me to place it on her neck and take it off (it is easy to do with just the links).After a time with this prong training collar I can now walk her in and around my yard with just her bandanna and she is gentle and polite, stopping and waiting when asked, even when she use to charge past me going to the house.

I have 3 German Shepherds. And I’m a 130lb female that can be dragged around by one. My goal was to be able to walk all three of them with one hand when I started with my trainer. She recommend these but recommended that I get the 2.5 and not the larger size like the website says because the smaller size actually gives you more control.I can now walk all three of my dogs on a leash with a splitter with one hand. This is life changing! I seriously couldn’t get my dogs under control until I got these and it’s changed our entire relationship and how they behave
