We use prong collars because we find them to be the best tool for connecting, communicating, and creating a harmonious relationship with the least amount of physical stress to the dog and owner. Most tools tend to only mask or manage the behavior, while the prong collar allows us to actually break through and effortlessly communicate, creating a vastly different state of mind and a highly responsive dog. While the appearance of prong collars may be deceiving, when used correctly, they have been proven to be the least physically taxing, most humane, and one of the safest tools available.
