It’s been shown to be true that shock collars are an effective way to impact your pets behaviors. Some say they are cruel, but others indicate they are not only safe, but they are remarkably effective on managing your pets.

There are some points to take into account before using a shock collar.

It is important to consider how a shock collar works. First, it monitors the frequency of your pet’s vocal chord vibration. If it gets too loud or too high, it responds by administering a small, brief shock to your pet.

What the animal feels when the shock happens is a small amount of discomfort, equivalent to jolting yourself with a battery or feeling the shock of static electricity. It isn’t actually painful, just unpleasant.

You should make sure you know your pet’s neck size before you purchase a shock collar. Use a measuring tape or cloth measurer to get a measure. If you don’t have those, you can use a simple piece of string or ribbon. Wrap the string around the animal’s neck and then mark where the two sides meet. Then measure that length against a ruler.

When you receive your new collar, you should be able to set its level. Collars are capable of administering a range of shock levels; you should begin with the lowest level of electricity. If your pet doesn’t respond to that level, you can increase it until it reaches a functional level.

Don’t consider the shock collar to be a permanent accessory for your pet. Use it only as long as it is necessary, that is, until your pet behaves the way you want.

The shock collar is a behavioral tool; even after you have stopped using it, your pet should still associate its unpleasant behaviors with the unpleasantness of the collar. If you have to, you can use it when necessary.
