This is a training collar where the dog canīt pull against you, as the collar works in a way which just pulls back the head of the dog, thus making them stop!
Works perfectly, in fact so good the word training renders as useless to me as my dog is no longer a pup but I still use this lead. |
Hopefully you're right Laura and that's a wind-up. As has already been said there is no good reason for not training your dog properly and no quick fix regardless of what anyone may say, time-patience-practice is the ONLY thing that will work.
and just for the record if you put my dog in one of those Coxo he would roll around on the floor trying to get it off and you wouldn't get one step out of the door never mind out on a walk...

This is a wind up, right?!  |
No. Of course not. In order to walk my dogs in areas for a good run, ie a forest we have to drive there - thus upon arrival put the lead on, walk them from the car to a suitable "dog allowed off lead area" and let them off! They walk perfectly on the lead, and off the lead you have never seen better behaved dogs. They comeback, leave, stop and run when told - very well behaved.
I suggest you look at them.
