Full Question:
Hi My mother got a white German Shepard.She is 73 years old and lives alone.She wanted the dog for protection to let her know when someone comes up.She has a problem with the dog jumping on her and skinning her arms up. and nipping at her shoes. When she walks.She wants the dog but I don't think she can handle him.He's a smart dog. I thought about getting a shock collar. I have seen some from 90.00 to 450.00.I don't know which one would be best for her. She is on a fixed income. any help would be thankful.Kim

Kim,
Get her an Innotek 300 ADV shock collar but ALSO get her the DVD I did on Electric Collar Training for the Pet Owner. If you don’t get the DVD then don’t get the collar. Seriously. I show how to deal with jumping and how to train the dog to walk without pulling.
