We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has signed our petition and contacted U.S. government officials, urging them to ban the cruel and dangerous prong collar. Over 27,000 compassionate individuals from around the world have raised their voices against this harmful device by signing our petition. 🙏

As Ruby Leslie, the WFA Companion Animal Trainer and Founder, explains: “Leash corrections, jerking on the leash, using prong collars, choke collars, slip leashes and neck collars will only acerbate behavioral issues such as aggression and fear, not stop them, as the pain creates psychological and physical damage to your dog.” “Training using punishment is abusive, inhumane, and misused. These practices compromise your dog’s ability to learn by increasing their insecurities, developing long-term and sometimes lasting emotional or physical damage.” 

Despite growing awareness, many well-meaning pet guardians still mistakenly believe prong collars are safe for their dogs. We must continue to educate and advocate for a ban to protect countless dogs from the severe pain, trauma, and lasting damage these devices cause.

💪 We need your continued support!

Our campaign has expanded to include important new call to action: reaching out to veterinarians and professional organizations like the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Veterinary Medical Foundation (AVMF). With over 100,000 veterinarians across the U.S., we can amplify our message by urging them to publicly condemn the use of prong collars. 

Additionally, we ask you to contact retailers selling prong collars and urge them to stop selling these harmful devices. 

📣 Every voice matters.

Even just a few minutes of your time—sending emails, writing letters, or making phone calls—can make a significant impact on the lives of countless vulnerable dogs.

Please join us in this vital fight. Together, we can create a future where all dogs are treated with the respect and compassion they deserve.
