[QUOTE="SLE, post: 256324, member: 3889"] PAIN, If your not getting any response, typically the collar is not tight enough, the prongs are too short, or the stimulation level needs to be turned up. However, with that said, it is a correction tool to go along with obedience training. If the dog doesn't understand why he/she is being shocked, then the correction is lost and only confusing to the dog as they do not know what they've done wrong. Of course some are strong headed and continue on even with a significant correction, while others will cower with so much as a raised voice. I have had both. my last brittany had big legs and ran like a pointer, he was head strong and an unstoppable machine in the field. the shock collar worked well to "Remind" him that i was the alpha in his pack. usually only took once a weekend to remind him. later in years when his hearing went, I would turn it way down to where he could hardly feel it and I simply used it to turn his direction. My current Brittany is really soft. I put the collar on him to early and after just one time, I about wrecked him. took him weeks to leave my feet without the collar around his neck. now days, it takes very little to get him to slow down or listen. the collar has really become a location tool more than anything. food for thought.
