oh i know how strong cockers can be!!!!!!..................i have seen these prongs on little dogs such as jack russell terriers and they work a treat!.............those are the micro size though..........small would suit hobbes!
i have two on order and one out on loan from the leeburg site! _________________ Cockapoo's...a little of this, a little of that..........
the perfect combination!

Ask John, I think he said he was getting some but I'm not sure if they were for general sale or even the correct size. Also ask him for the link to a UK supplier I vaguely recall there is one somewhere in UK do it cheaper than Leerburg as you don't have international postage. Check with him though to be sure as that info may have been changed by now. _________________ Happiness is watching my dog chase leaves dancing in the breeze. |

Hi Corinne I use a prong collar on Alfie. Although he is small he was a nightmare on lead he anyone came towards us. The prong collar sorted he out very quickly.

Big thank you to Emily . . . . without Tico getting such a good early Christmas present i wouldn't have heard about prong collars!
I'm really looking forward to trying this on Hobbes _________________ Corinne and Hobbes |

i wouldn't use the UK one are they have been known to brake as they are not as good as the American one. but i would agree talk to John. if you are getting them yourself get stainless steel and don't go for the quick release.
try one at class before you order one just to see how he does, with it. _________________ microchiping and grooming www.chipnclip.co.uk

I bought a UK one for Bubbles and had problems with the first one ( it lost it`s spring action) and then I discovered how sharp the uk one is opposed to the one that the club recommends

I highly recommend these, I think it is better than yanking on their necks. |
