Search YouTube and see if you can find a video from America's Funniest
Home Videos. it's a teenage kid who puts on his dog's shock collar
and tests it. It's pretty funny, but it also illustrates how hard the
shock collars hit. I wouldn't put one on either of my dogs...
But there's a couple of kids in the neightborhood who might benefit from
one.

Subject: Re: Eeek... Dog barking problem
I'm with you, Ray. I don't think I could give my neighbor the remote to
a shock collar, but honestly, we were thinking about getting one for out
dog (that *we* controlled) so that we could make sure she knows that
barking is not ok when we are around (We do reprimand her now, but it's
tricky to do so while she's outside and we're inside - this could make
it more immediate...). I know several dog owners who really like these
for their (now very well-behaved) dogs but I'd have to do more research
before I'd be 100% convinced that it was humane/necessary.
