Thank you to everyone who let me share in their experiences with
walking 3 large, powerful dogs safely. I am very sorry that the
subject has provoked such strong feelings, but perhaps that is only
because we all care so deeply for our breed and only wish to do the
best by them.

Hi Sue,
Yes there is a correct way to put on the prong collar. Petsmart now sell a
new version with a link chain that is easier to put on than the original
style which requires you to unhook a link and then fasten that into place
once around the dog's neck. You should use the bigger heavier version
Hi Wendy,
I am going to work out a training program for you knowing you are such a

to adopt a ski position so that you can remain on your feet or you are
going to provide hours of entertainment for the Canadians at Bruce's Pi

Is there a proper way to put on a prong collar? I agree they are power
steering. With two 95 pound dogs, I have been pulled off my feet, lucky I
did not break something, just a bruised face. The dogs show great respect
when I get them out in situations where absolute obedience is essential

Hi,
My experience is I prefer take a walk with each dog instead of having
trobles with 2 or 3 walked in the same time.
It is also always necessary for dogs to go for a walk on their own - not

themselves.
No special collar
Hi Liz,
You may not like my suggestion but try prong collars on the two loonies:-)
Walk them individually when first using them and keep the leash loose, if
they bounce off the leash they are going to correct themselves and the one

Hi all,
Sorry to post this again, but I'm looking for resources for Siwash harnesses.
I've asked this before, but I can't find my hard copies or the whole thing

Unless you are looking for an ornamental leather parade harnesses, you can get a great
nylon webbed siwash harnesses for under $60.00. They are the standard for most draft
tests and practical day to day duty. They will outlast many dogs but they do need to
be sized your dog in most cases
