    I don't like choker collars as they put pressure on the wind pipe. The Sprenger collar doesn't do this when fitted properly.

    I am glad to know that I am not the only one with covid fur babies that are also anti-social. Also agree that I am not inviting Juan De La Cruz over, or hanging out at the Sari Sari just so the puppies can get some manner training.
    We have several dogs and, for noe, I am fine with everyone being terrified about coming over. This includes the hardware store that would prefer to leave materials at the gate and then wait until they leave to bring them in. Mapecon which now sends a text when they are 30 min away, and anybody on the beach that gets to close to the fenceline.
    Side note, stupid dogs make great huggers, they need love too. And a stupid dog is still brighter than 90% of the people I (we) deal with. You will be able to train it, people here just chase their tails and in 100 years have not figured out that they are not going to catch it.

    Back to fun stuff:
    Yes, eventually friends and family will come to visit and when it does, and after a week I am sure they will be acknowlaged as part of the pack. Especially if they share with the babies the crispy skin of lechon, Chooks to Go, and Sunday pancake breakfast.

    It seems to me you are a responsible dog owner, so to avoid any misunderstanding and more my previous message was not intended for any accusation or else. Speaking from my own very limited experience, I only did train 2 dogs i.c. a Mallinois, the kind of dog very eager to learn coz that breed is known as rather smart. I start training as young as possible, best time early in the morning on an empty stomach. You will be surprised, @least for a Mallinois, how fast they take it up. I got my knowledge from a well known professional dog trainer in my home town and online from some books on this subject. I have no doubt @all that you can find same for your dog, though a different breed. But if you are of the opinion that the use of a prong training collar will not do any harm @all to your dog, who am I to say any possible negative about. So wish you all success needed for the final result you're looking for.

    Training a dog and using the right methods does not need the use of a prong training collar.
