DINGO GEAR Dog Choke Collar Handmade from Strong Cord with 2 Limiters Waterproof Choker for K9 Training IGP Agitation Bite Work Obedience Black L (S04049)

Fantastic to teach pressure and release.. seen a lot of bad reviews because their dog chewed it.. um you shouldn’t have it on the dog unsupervised that’s a no brainer to be honest. Of course it will break if it gets chewed. 2nd point if your dog is pulling so much that it gets damaged quickly then it is not being used properly and it is in fact really dangerous to the dog if they are pulling to the point it breaks. It should be high on the neck just behind the ears so they can’t pull into it that much and it doesn’t choke them. I can definitely see why it’s banned in some countries because of poor education of use.

It is best to get advice on use from a dog trainer, behaviourist, in regards to setting. This product works well and is well constructed, with metal rings that prevent wear and makes it more secure. This is not a collar for full-time use, it should only be used when walking, not off lead or tethering. This product has stopped lead aggressive behaviour and pulling, both within two training sessions, we're so impressed with the improvement. I do stress that getting advice on the use is paramount for the dogs welfare, as there are no instructions for positioning supplied. You do need a separate lead to the dogs proper collar to ensure the dog is secure, controlled and safe, this lead should be slack when at heal. Our dogs are both 8, one is 42kg, this has changed our lives to be honest, I bought another for the smaller dog. Would recommend, any questions I'll be pleased to answer.

I bought this in October 2022 to use as a slip collar on the advice of a trainer. It didn't really help my dog's behaviour as she will choke herself out before she'll stop going for another dog. However, the collar is still in daily use and still going strong in March 2024 as I found an alternative use for it. I attach it to her lead which is also attached to her harness. If she slips out of the harness, there's no way she's going anywhere still attached to the collar. This has happened a few times. I found at first that the collar was too slidy and wouldn't stay in place behind the ears but with use, the cord roughens up and is more effective. I'll buy another when this one eventually wears out.

As described and does the job

Fair price, fitted and worked well but the dog wore it out. The noose broke through wear on one point after a year

Trained countless dogs using this, still showing minimal signs of wear. Recommended to many clients

Perfect just what I wanted. Fits my GSD great. Hopefully it will help with our training.

In relation to the thin (4mm) slip collar - bought in a size Small.Initially thought this would be a good slip collar, however within only two weeks of use, it ended up fraying and actually snapping whilst on my dog's neck.Stopper also does not seem very strong, making the collar often ride down my dog's neck, so no longer working effectively as a slip.Real safety risk if this snaps, appears far too thin and of poor quality to maintain function and use.Would not recommend, feels like a waste of money.To note, I have also bought the slightly thicker slip collar (with 1 limiter) in a size XS at the same time as this collar - this one is by far superior and is still going strong now, with no obvious signs of fraying. I put this down to a slightly thicker cord and generally better build quality. Do not bother buying the thin one (albeit was the most effective in teaching my dog to loose lead walk) - find another company if you wish for a very thin slip collar/lead
