Prong collar in the uk? - Page 1

Hi all just found this website and Im very impressed.Its really interesting to see the dogs peds up on here and find out exactly where your dog comes from. My question is does anyone know if the prong collar is avalible in the uk or is it banned?The reason I ask is that I have read so many things about how good a prong is in training and would like to maybe start traing my dog Dex with it.He has very high drive and pulls like theres no tomorrow when out on walks and I was thinking maybe the prong collar would work seeing as everything else from treats to head collars have failed. Any one in the UK use this type of collar or are they in fact banned? Cheers Mick

I don't know if they allowed in the UK, but Canine Leathers in Crewe sell them, but only to experienced trainers I believe. You might get more info from them...www.canineleather.com tel 01270 841003
