The
collar of the shock term is the term used to describe a family of training
collars that deliver electrical shock of variable intensity and duration to the
neck of the dog (they can also be applied to other places on the dog's body)
via a radio controlled electronic device incorporated in the collar with 4A76
6V battery. Some collar models also
include a tone or vibration settlement as an alternative to or together with
shock. Others include integration with Internet display capabilities and GPS to
locate the dog or alert the owner of the location within pet
dog fencing fence.
Originally
used in the late 1960s to train hunting dogs, early collars were very high
powered. Many modern versions are capable of delivering very low levels of
shock. Shock collars are now easily available and used in a range of
applications, including behavioral modification, obedience training,
containment and favorite, as well as armed forces, police and service training.
While similar systems are available for other animals, the most common are the
collars designed for domestic dogs.
The use of shock collars, which
is totally different from the cheap
dog collars, is controversial and
scientific evidence for their safety and effectiveness is mixed. Several
countries have instituted bans or control over their use. Some organizations
for the protection of dogs warn about their use or actively support a ban on
their use or sale. Some want restrictions to their sale. Some professional
animal trainers and their organizations oppose their use and some support them.
