But that's because they are stronger and taller than us. One pull the wrong way on a dogs head and that upward force could slip some discs I'm sure. We are never above horses/cattle to give an upward pull that could possibly hurt their neck too. Talk about some serious whiplash. Ouch. If you're debating between a prong or a head collar, go with the prong - much safer and more effective. Top Paw Training: serving Canyon Lake & New Braunfels, San Antonio to Austin.

I just got into a debate over it and needed some ammo to back my position.You know when you get debating with the only positive crowd and they have a lunging dog that they can`t stop yet resist a prong but go for a head collar.
