This Herm Sprenger 2.25 chrome pinch spike prong collar is intended for dogs with weight up to 44 lbs (20 kg).
A Herm Sprenger dog training collar with prongs is a professional and efficient tool for dog behavior correction, obedience training, and to manage the temper of a naughty dog easily.
How does Herm Sprenger collar work? When you pull on a leash attached to the collar ring the prongs make slight pinches. The prongs act naturally like the fang teeth of a mother-dog and a dog reacts immediately to stop undesired action. All you have to do is to make a slight pull on a leash to make a dog understand that his action is wrong.
Is a Herm Sprenger prong collar safe? It is important to use a prong dog collar correctly for dog safety and maximum efficiency. It should be 2 in larger dog's neck size and worn right under the jaws at the upper area of a dog's neck.
Don't put on a dog prong collar over dog's neck, it may injure dog's eyes. You should unfasten a lock or a link, take it on a dog, and than adjust it again.
Chrome plated metal may color white fur. For fair-haired dogs you ma choose stainless steel or curgan prong collar types. But still there is no 100% warranty that it won't leave marks on white or fair fur color.
The standard size of this prong collar for dog training is 16 inches (41 cm). It consists of 10 links. The collar size should be 2 in larger than a dog's neck, so it will suit 14 in (36 cm) dog's neck. For a smaller/larger size remove or add extra links. One link adds 1.2 in (3 cm).
