Is it cruel to put an Electric obedience collars on my Dog?
If used properly they aren’t cruel. They are an effective way of training, though some brands give to hard of a shock. What I do find rather cruel are chock collars with spikes that dig into the dog that are sold everywhere to people that have untrained dogs that can easily get hurt. I understand that you want to keep your chickens safe. I think it’s a good idea as long as you don’t abuse it. But certain people have different opinions and I suggest you read a bit about certain brands of electric obedience collars and form your own opinion. Many people are (and will) say bad things to you on Yahoo! Answers. I found a site that sells dog collars if you want to buy online: http://www.k9electronics.com/ Good luck with your dog!
