[nagdu] pinch collar

[Cindy Ray]

I don't think I've experienced quite the intensity of distraction you have, though he has gotten away from me a few times, and he has dragged me down, but only in my yard and once by a street at the church. When that happens, it refocuses him, strangely enough. What a struggle. Well,we'll see how this goes.

> Hi everyone. I used the pinch collar with Nuncio. He was very dog and cat distracted. I tried other methods also, clicker and treaqts,gentle leader, the canny collar which is similar to the gentle leader. His growling.lunging/barking started almost right after we got home. Once he got away from me in another state to go after another dog and went after another dog. My friend had to catch him. This lady was horrified. At home, he got awsay from me to go after some dogs across the street. I sprained my ankle. I worked with him for 3 years. Despite his major issues with other dogs, he was a wonderful dog. The final straw was whenI was going on a bus trip and when we were transferring buses I was relieving him. He saw another dog and neither made a sound. The first thing I knew was that I was beimg dragged in the middle of a parking lot after this other dog. iI got a few scrapes and I'm lucky that's all I got. Needless to say, I retired him after that, took 9 months to heal from my 3 years of stress, and went to class at gdb to get zeb. thankfully the only thing I have to use on occasion is the gl.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I hope that none of you ever experienced this in your dog careers.  It can happen anywhere as it's like russian rullette when we get our dogs.
