Anyone interested in the program can bring their dog’s current choke, prong/pinch or shock collar to the Sonnyside Retail Store located in the lobby of the Boulder Valley Human Society at 2323 ...

They don’t see the collar as something to be prescribed by a doctor, and they have yet to actually test how well it can actually reflect a human’s behavior while attached to a dog’s scruff.

In the 1960s the preferred method to teach a dog to “heel” on the leash was a choke chain. This is simply a chain collar with a ring on each end that forms a loop around your dog’s neck.
