Ban shock and prong collars on dogs!


Ban shock and prong collars on dogs!
The issue
Why are people even still using shock and or pinch collars on their dogs? It is one of the cruelest things that you could do to any animal! Could you imagine getting shocked for barking or pinched in the neck just because you were worried or feeling playful?
This needs to be stopped, we need people to understand what it can do to your animals;
- It can traumatise them, as soon as they have been shocked or pinched once it will give them the constant fear of this happening to them again.
- It can also hurt them, I’m not sure if you have ever touched an electric fence, but it hurts and it shocks you for quite a while. Imagine this happening to you but on the neck?
- Psychological distress and pain to your animal
- And mainly the stress you trigger for this animal.
And for some reason then you expect the dog to love you and never do that behaviour again.
Overall we need to stop making, selling and buying these collars. Teach the dog how to get out of this behaviour in a positive manner rather than shocking it.
