Ed Ed's Answer:
Dog training is not size or breed specific – it’s temperament and drive specific. I have written that about 300 times on our web site. Small dogs are no different than big dogs.

This means you use a prong collar for dog training. A nylon choke collar is not a training collar for anything other than aggression. It is not an obedience training collar.

There are only 3 obedience collars:
  1. A flat collar (nylon or leather)
  2. A prong collar
  3. An electric collar
