Opinions on prong training collars?

ALSO, if that sounded rude, I'm sorry it wasn't meant to be! I love getting sound advice from other CC owners! I've had many dogs but none quite like a CC so I respect those who have advice from personal experiences! Most trainers I've spoke with know little to nothing about this breed so this makes it easier! And hey if I can be taught to use the Choke collar correctly it would also save me money :) I didn't know I was using it wrong until this forum. I thank you for the input as well! I'd tag you but I'm still learning how to navigate this forum...

I think MF is saying that, based on that picture, it looks like you have the collar on up-side-down, which will affect how it works. I'm not so sure that's what that picture shows personally, but can see how it looks that way. Can you post a different picture of it on him from a different angle maybe?

Once I get home from work, gladly! If I am using it wrong I would love to learn the proper way!
