Default Caesar Millan Illusion Dog Collar

Anyone have/had any experience with those?? Are they more or less effective than a pinch collar?? Or a regular collar??

I was just browsing online and saw that they're not expensive, and I give Samantha about a month before she out grows her current collar..

I would think a properly fitted collar would do the same thing.

I bought one and to be honest my dog chewed it.
Dont waste your money. The purpose of the collar is great. But the actual collar itself is a hassle with the buckles - IMO.

My shelter gave me the best-est ever collar/lead combo. It was like a slip knot with a stopper.
The link below is something similar.
The whole idea is to keep the collar high up on the neck - just like how the handlers have them with show dogs.
You have more control over the dog and minimal movement is needed for corrections.

Also - be sure the lead is rounded not flat......it feels better holding it than the flat leads :P

You should be able to use a puppy collar for Yuri. Mater used to be able to slip out of his but we had to make do with what he had to take him out to potty, luckily he never really tried to escape from his collar.

Those slip knots collar/leads are great - it adjusts to whatever size you need and the stopper keeps it in place. The dog cant slip out of it and it wont slide down their necks.
One kind of collar/leash for their entire lives. All you need is a plain collar for show & their tags.
