Angela Burrell Webboard User Reg: 05-10-2006 Posts: 2273 Loc: Ontario, Canada Offline	Okay, I SWEAR I saw this posted on this board about a year ago but now, I can't find it. Someone posted that they went and bought 2 melons (cantaloupes) and corrected one five times with a choke chain and corrected the other five times with a prong collar, and then posted photographs of what happened to the melons. It was cool and I'd really like the link to those photographs; I've personally owned a dog whose neck was damaged by a choke chain and I now refuse to use them. Those pictures were a wonderful illustration of what choke chains really do to dogs' necks. If anyone can find that post, I would really appreciate it!!

I'd be interested in seeing the pictures. True

Here's a quote from an article by Gary Patterson: "How benign is a choke collar when I have demonstrated that it can actually slice a melon with only a few back and forth movements." http://siriustrainer.com/gear/ob%20stick/excerptbk.htm The quote is from the last paragraph. Comment - without any further info, I'm assuming he's talking about a standard choke collar, not a fur saver. Parek
