"Excellent for medium correction, won't discolor light coats, very well made."
By: George P Ramsey
white german shepherd dogs. Owns 2 dogs. Competes. Excellent for medium correction, won't discolor light coats, very well made. Collar appearance is great, have had many compliments by those unaware it was a pinch. Used for fine tuning behavior, particularly when a firm but not harsh correction is sought. Won't flip or tangle and latch is solid. Although expensive this collar is worth every penny.

Family pet. I love this collar because it doesn't cause people to question me about my training practices. It's a low-profile collar and he isn't allergic to it! It's a great tool.

Warranted 100% rust proof -- 1 year manufacturer guarantee against breakage if used as directed.
24" Curogan Herm Sprenger Neck-Tech dog force (pinch) collars are guaranteed 100% rust proof. Designed for use with all dog breeds, including both short and long haired dogs. Herm Sprenger Neck Tech tines are designed to imitate the shape of dog's teeth, creating a "natural influence" over the dog. Excellent for teaching heel, sit, stay, whoa, etc. Proper fit is achieved by adding or removing links. Just snap them in or out.
Curogan is a copper tin alloy with a high copper portion and some additives to make the material strong, but without any nickel. Curogan will avoid discoloration of light colored coats on most dogs. Also, the fact that Curogan is absolutely free of nickel will benefit sensitive dogs that show allergic reactions to nickel.
We prefer the "pinch" type dog training collars to choke chains as we have found their use to result in easier and faster training for both the dog and the trainer. We suggest that teaching "heel" is a good place to start with the pinch collar.
First adjust the collar by removing links or adding lengths to get a "good" fit - a fit where the dog will be comfortable when he is in the proper position but will become uncomfortable when he gets out of position. If the dog is wearing a regular collar, place the pinch collar in front of the regular collar and check frequently to be sure the pinch collar is not hanging up on the regular collar. We suggest keeping the pinch collar low on the dog's neck and walking at a slow but steady pace the first few sessions using a large (25' - 30') circular, figure 8, or box pattern. After several sessions, you should be able to progress to a varied pace, and quicker and sharper turns and stops. Placing the pinch collar higher on the dog's neck usually causes more discomfort and a better response in dogs that have not responded after several sessions. Also, a collar with smaller diameter prongs will usually elicit a better response for dogs that have been slow in responding.
We have found the pinch collar to be especially useful in teaching "heel", "sit", "whoa", "stay", and "here". Our own view is that choke chains and pinch collars should not be used on pups under six months of age. These collars should only be used during training sessions and should NEVER be left on unattended dogs.
Available in 19" and 24" lengths.
