I have heard of these on the Yahoo list those there who have done them highly recommend them andhave said they havepaid off in real life for them; the dog's reaction of going wide made them take notice and not get bit.


Not only pays off for the dog, but also alerts me if my dog decides to want to take a wide berth around an area.
