To select the most accurate size collar for your pet, measure the center of their neck with a cloth tape measure, a few inches down from their head. Pull the cloth tape measure snug, but not tight. If you don't have a cloth tape measure, you can use a piece of string and measure it with a rigid ruler afterwards. Make sure there's enough room for about two fingers between the collar and your pet's neck for comfort.

Only Prong Collar for Your Dog
By SarahH on Feb 22, 2021
I have a rescue potty-Doberman mix, and because he just loves everyone and everything, his super wiggly body is hard to manage on walks. He is super strong and we had tried harnesses and other collars but to no avail. I looked into prong collars and Herm seemed to be the best brand recommended out there. Because of this collar, we can take out boy George out on walks without it, and he pulls WAY less. Of course this is a training tool, so it has to be used on a pretty consistent basis. It allows him responsibility of having consequences to his actions, while keeping us, George, and other walkers safe. It can be hard to size sometimes as it should be high up on the neck, but George has some I have a rescue potty-Doberman mix, and because he just loves everyone and everything, his super wiggly body is hard to manage on walks.

Excellent tool
By Ginny on Feb 14, 2021
I debated using a prong collar for my 30 lb. Golden doodle. But, after he had been attacked by big dogs he developed a fear of all dogs bigger than him and therefore he would overreact. He would go ballistic. Very fearful, maybe even PTSD. I needed to correct this behavior and have him feel safe again on walks. This collar looks intimidating, but it is very effective. Now when he starts to grumble, I immediately correct him. Within 3 days he's more relaxed and enjoying his walks. Reminder that this is a training tool.

Great for training but not for larger dogs
By JessT on Jan 26, 2021
This collar came highly recommended by dog trainers for training or correcting during walks. I can agree it worked wonders on my dog while it lasted and he walks perfectly without pulling on the leash most of the time. Unfortunately we only had this training collar for 4 months when the links broke. My 8 month old Doberman puppy now 90lbs broke it with one tug when a dog charged us! Luckily neither dog was harmed in the incident bc my pup does have a good recall and is very dog friendly. This is why I only gave the collar 3 stars.

Safe and effective
By Wallace on Feb 9, 2021
This product has helped us immensely. We have a young, strong rescue that pulled when walked. From the moment we used this collar he responded and behaved. He is loving his walks even more now, it’s a pleasure! The adjustable links helped us find the right size for his comfort. Very well engineered. Like a mommy dogs reminder on his neck to behave. We’ve had dogs for 30 years and would never use a product that caused harm, this is just the opposite. It allows you to be able to rescue a strong dog. Highly recommend!

Works but fit issues
By ArnieZ on Jan 25, 2021
I have had these collars for almost a week. I ordered 2 of them for my 9 month old labs. They do work reasonably well at helping to keep them from pulling. I was hesitant to get them as I was afraid they would hurt but my friends kept recommending it so I went ahead. The puppies do not seem to be in pain from them but they do recognize that they are there and it keeps them from pulling too much. Importantly, though, I think the sizing and measurements are not good. I measured my dogs necks ahead of ordering. They were 18" and 17". I thought I would get the 18" version of these but they were out of stock so I ordered the 20" and assumed I would take a link out.

I thought I would get the 18" version of these but they were out of stock so I ordered the 20" and assumed I would take a link out. The problem is that even the 20" version with all the links in is barely big enough to get over the head. My bigger puppy really struggles to get it over his ears and I have to be really careful. I would order extra links to make it bigger but then it would never tighten up around the neck. Right now when they do pull and the collar tightens, it tightens as far as it can go and still is not really tight on the neck. Net, I will continue to use these as I already have them but I would recommend getting another brand that has a more flexible sizing and opening mechanism. … more

Just what you'd Expect
By RustyShackleford on Feb 16, 2021
This item has worked great with my German shorthair. I would recommend this to anyone looking for this style of collar. We used similar collars when I was a kid and they were effective. I initially tried less menacing looking style but it didn't deter my pup from pulling and choking herself. Switched to this collar and I've been extremely happy with it.

Difficult to resize/put on
By tricky on Jan 31, 2021
I don't know if I'm not using it correctly, but I've looked everywhere for directions. This is the second prong collar I've bought, as I heard herm sprenger is the brand to use. I am having the same issues. I cannot get the prongs to squeeze together, so I'm not able to use it. If someone knows the proper way, I'd be grateful for the help. Nothing available online

Have used this type of collar for 20 years!
By Medgie on Feb 11, 2021
These collars are NEVER to be placed on dog over head and ears!!! You must open them up and close when in position which should be high on dogs neck but not tight. I have used these on 4 large dogs over 20 years with GREAT success! If you put them on too loose they are useless.

Great quality, clear communication
By Anya on Dec 28, 2020
I have an anxious, reactive dog. Over the past year, I have tried every “positive” method for reactivity, and they haven’t made much of a difference. I was hesitant to try a prong collar but bought this collar at the recommendation of a friend who is a trainer. The collar is very intuitive for my dog. She is actually more confident than ever on walks now, and we’re actually making significant progress on reactivity. I no longer have to hurt my back trying to hold onto her when she is lunging at dogs. This prong collar is very high quality. Many people only trust Herm Sprenger for safe, quality prong collars. It took me a while to understand how to use it, and I will say that unhooking the prongs I have an anxious, reactive dog.

There are other Herm Sprenger prong collars that have buckle releases instead, which would have been nice, but this works just fine and I didn’t have to wait long at all for it, thanks to Chewy. … more

Saving Grace
By Michaela on Jan 16, 2021
I have 2 dogs (M+M) who have been extremely aggressive to each other. With the help of a trainer and these collars there has been such a huge difference!! From walking them on leashes to just having the ability to set a boundary with a gentle but firm reminder... I will absolutely recommend them. Easy to use, easy to adjust size
