Is it good when you would us a dog training collar for you to pull back as hard as you could until the dog cry?
February 9th, 2010 | 
Author: just to let you know that my dad would pull back as hard as he could until the dog would cry because the dog would try to run and my dad was told that you should pull back the training collar until the dog yelps.
Wow…..poor dog. The dog is pitching his weight against the collar, turning it into a tug of war between your father & the dog. Not good as yanking ineffectually on a dog’s neck teaches it nothing & may cause long term physical damage.
Any piece of of training has to be used correctly & is only as effective as the handlers ability to use it. Suggest to your father that he either works with a decent trainer on a one to one basis or sign up for obedience classes.

Good grief, what idiot told your dad that one? You all need to go to a training class to learn how to handle the poor dog.

no thats bull and mean.. you dont hurt the dog when they disobey.. you dont teach anything making them fearful, you teach by praise when they do something good, then they will continue doing it because they get praise. tell your dad to watch the dog whisperer and i would quit letting him take your dog on walks because thats just cruel!

….no! Just a slight tug to make them aware thats not what they should do. If they try to pull you, you should stop and wait a few seconds, then go again. Include the slight tug also, but stopping is the best method i think.

No, this isn’t going to help and you risk injuring the dog. Instead try using a no-pull harness, available at Petsmart and Petco. These hook the leashes onto the front instead of the back. The purpose is so that when the dog lunges forward or tries to run all the owner has to do is stop walking and the placement of the leash will actually cause the dog to turn slightly to the left or the right. This eventually discourages them from pulling as they are no longer able to do so. I have used it with my dog who was a nightmare to walk and now our leash is totally slack while walking because he’s not pulling.

well if somebody put a collar around your neck then yanked it really hard would that teach you anything? NO, it would just create fear!

What kind of collar is your dad using? If it’s a buckle collar – then he can cause severe damage to the dog’s trachea – even potentially causing it to collapse.
There are other training methods and safer collars to use – have your dad sign up for obedience training and find a safer collar to use.
