    Not to put anything to rest (why would we?), but it seems every online discussion I have followed about e-collars (here and elsewhere) follows a fixed script: people who are against describe e-collars as cruel, no matter the particular application or dog; people who use them can argue all they want, but they are viewed as lazy at best, dumb and mean at worst. It's a pity. And as to eeeefarm: I really don't see how she is selling something here; she is describing her own experiences, assesses some of the research that has been done, and answers questions. Why it would matter how many posts that takes, is beyond me.

    Are the wider collars okay to use with a puller? I'm still working with trying to get mine to stop pulling when we're out walking - the gentle leader helps - but I can't use that when we go to training class.

    @JazzysMom: I am not a "show people" as I've never been in the ring, and only have the one dog that actually finished her championship, but I keep collars on my dogs 24/7. I used the rolled leather collars, and they don't leave any marks on the neck at all – necks are nice and smooth. Well, really they do leave marks… but they are pretty little.... I always don't leave collars on in the house for a number of reasons... (this is after they get used to them of course)... 1. I am always afraid that they will get a mouth caught in them when playing... and 2. they will/could get hung up on something... however that said, mine are not crated, as we have a doggy room for them.. and they have a doggy door to a secure fenced yard.

    Oh that is good idea. I was thinking of getting one of those dual leads for two dogs and using one clip on her martingale and on the harness. She is a sneaky little wench!

    I wouldnt be surprised if he does or would if you asked. I definately paid too much ($25) for mine when I was at an event and had to have one.
