I have two pekingese dogs and have breath problems because of their 'pushed inside' nose. Can I use prong collar in this breed? Or is there something else, more appropriate?
Full Question:
Dear Cindy,I have bought and watched all videos on dog training. I have two pekingese dogs and as you already know this breed has breath problems because of their 'pushed inside' nose. Can I use prong collar in this breed? Or is there something else, more appropriate in order to not cause any problems with their breathing?
Thank you very much,
Jenny

You can use a prong collar with a Pekingese. It actually is less restrictive on their breathing than other types of collars.
I hope this helps.
