WD, thanks for the response.
I was shown by a trainer to use the prong. I am willing to accept that perhaps we weren't instructed correctly or perhaps we didn't soak it all in. The our trainer coming this Sunday had told me once that they do not work because the place where they hit the nerves are in the larger part of the neck muscle and aren't effective. Based on your 110% remark, I should asume she doesn't know how to correctly use it either? ;)

Yes; it's safe to assume that! IF the prong is properly fitted and used they WILL "work".
You need to keep looking for another trainer cause the one you picked doesn't have a bloody CLUE where the prong collar even GOES on the neck of the dog!
Harsh? Maybe ;) But.......when you've worked your proverbial a$$ off as a female in a male dominated sport.......you take grrrrrrrrreat offense to the "I'm a girl" thing :D
Physical stature has NOTHING to do with the effective handling of even the strongest dog.
