Does your dog have a shock collar?

[sandragonfly]

no way, I can't imagine seeing one on any dog.

but if he has one, I'll be sure to have one on me too.

Nope, I wouldnt put one on my dogs in a billion years. I have seen how strong they are on humans so i can just imagine how much they hurt on dogs. As said before there are better ways for training a dog, and sending an electrical current through their body is not one of them.

Autumn has one for when my stepdad gets grumpy about her siren bark. It doesn't hurt bad, I've been shocked by it, but I don't like the things that stick into the neck. It has to be uncomfortable for those things to be poking your neck, it has to be tight to work properly. I've been working with her and my stepdad though and she's getting better. He gets into this angry jealous rage because she only barks at men and he's the only man in the house.

Nope, I would never put one on my dogs. There are better, more positive ways of training then sending shocks through their body.

Well I have to say I "tried" to use one on Bon.

We tried everything to get him to quit jumping on the window of the house but nothing worked, so I asked a friend of mine if I could borrow hers.
Oh, it will make him get off but it scares the crap out of him. We tried it a couple of times and that was it.

It may work for some dogs and it possibly could have even worked for him but I just couldn't stand it. Nope...never again.

I didn't check one, as my answer is a simple no, as it wasn't needed. He wasn't fenced in & he never left the yard, so there was never a reason to get one. However I've seen them on dogs before & all was well.

i wouldn't put one on my dogs. you can contain your dogs in other ways than a shock collar.
