I got a shock collar after numerous attempts to try to not have my girl jump at a big glass window in my living room when she sees another dog.. I was terrified she would break it and get hurt. Well she ignored it, I finally just started telling her to go to bed when she starts for the window and if I'm not home I put her in the bedroom. These collars can be used effectively in the right hands but I don't believe they should be used excessively or in place of proper training. What I did works for me because I'm home all day and I can reinforce with treats. I gave up on using it, it takes too big a shock to deter a determined Rott and I couldn't do that to my dog.
