Herm Sprenger Prong Dog Training Collar Ultra-Plus Chrome Plated Steel Pet Pinch No-Pull for Dogs Anti Pull Made in Germany 2.25mm x 13in Small

The Herm Sprenger Ultra-Plus Prong Collar is very well made. Solid stainless steel links and a smooth finish. My dog responds quickly when using it correctly, and it’s much more comfortable for him than older, cheaper prong collars. Fit is adjustable and easy to size, and the links move smoothly without pinching. I use it responsibly as a training tool, not punishment, and it’s helped improve leash manners significantly. Overall, a premium prong collar that works well when used correctly and responsibly.

Purchased for my service dog training, its perfect. Works well, can remove links for the perfect size. He knows this collar means we will be working soon. Highly recommend if you understand how to correctly use a prong collar.

Much better than any prong collar on the market. The function and design is smooth with absolute confidence.

Item is exactly as pictured and is well made. Make sure you add the 2 inches as directed to your measurement. I would also invest in add a release latch for the collar to ease removal. Pressing the links to open it is a hassle and may eventually lead to it to eventually opening unexpectedly.

Hella long review but walk with me, haha. 🐶 I have hypermobile EDS and my joints ache severely every time after taking my dogs out or for a walk. We have a Border Collie mix and a Husky, they both pull but the Husky pulls to the point where I straight up can’t deal with him on the leash. We tried everything: treats, clickers, shorter leashes, and gentle leaders. The gentle leader worked until the Husky figured out he could just turn around and pull, which made going out a long process full of constant corrections and redirection. My boyfriend had graciously started solely taking them out so I’m not in pain, but I didn’t want to put that all on him or miss out on my babies having fun outside. I figured we had exhausted all options and this was just how life would be with our dogs, but after the Husky slipped out of his gentle leader on Halloween and made a run for it dressed up as a hot dog, I knew I needed to figured something out fast! After hours of searching and comparing, I decided to give this collar a try and when it showed up, my boyfriend thought I bought a torture device and honestly I was a little worried about it too. I took them out just ONE TIME to go potty, and it was MAGICAL!! Our Husky boy STOPPED PULLING!!! Even after getting the collar on him, he didn’t fuss around! The sizing chart and directions are very accurate: we measured his neck at 18” and added 2”. The 20” collar was perfect fit right out of the package, but can be easily adjusted by removing or adding links. The prongs on the links can be a little tricky at first, but get easier with use. As long as you have a little grip strength, it’s not that difficult to pop off/on. Other reviewers said to get the additional quick release thing, which I agree would be better in the long run if you have issues with hand strength, joint pain, or mobility. The chain, rings, and links feel very durable and there is no smell. I like that it’s just metal, so much easier to keep clean! I took them for a walk the next day and he did so good on the leash, no pulling or choking himself and no coughing!! 😭 I felt like it made him more aware of commands, he looked happy and confident for the first time! I was so impressed by this collar’s ability to distribute the pressure of him pulling without harming him that I returned the martingale collar we got for our other dog because she was coughing from pulling on the leash during our walk and buying her this one instead!!

So far working very well on my 7 1/2 year old German Shepherd. My dog is very responsive to this collar and very few corrections needed so far. Only issue is it is hard to get on and off. Otherwise I’d give 5 stars.

It’s a game changer, like power steering for your dog!! We got a German Shepard at 12 weeks, who’s now 6 months old. Up until last week he was completely leash trained, the first week we had him he would lay down sometimes or randomly pull but he stopped that after a week of being with us. We could take him anywhere and he wasn’t reactive to people or other dogs, he just walked and didn’t care, he’d sometimes stop and sniff. If we used a collar he would get wild but with his tactical harness he was extremely obedient on walks. Two weeks ago he hit 6 months(neutered) and he suddenly just got wild on walks even with his harness. He’s 55 pounds and he has a lot of power behind him and he started constantly pulling full force, would no longer heel and would randomly lay down and not get back up. If you stopped to try and make him sit he’d keep pulling. This all started on a trail in the woods. A mile in and he went wild pulling full force. We eventually turned around and he pulled full force the entire trip back to the car he ended up hurting the muscles in my back, shoulder and neck(disabled vet with spinal issues). The next day we took him for another walk around our neighborhood and the same thing happened, pulling full force. Today I tried to walk him in the backyard and it didn’t work, just pulling full force. I’d known about these collars since I was a kid and my parents had used them on our dogs growing up but I thought the collars were cruel and for lazy people lol. I looked online on how to fix this new walking problem we had and people kept recommending these Herm Sprenger prong collars. I was extremely reluctant but decided to watch a bunch of videos and it was amazing how much the dogs would change their walking behavior by simply switching to this collar. I decided to get one, it showed up the same day(today) at 10pm. I removed a few links to make it fit properly and took him for a walk, it was amazing. He had originally been a good walker before getting out of control but with this collar even his old “good walking” wasn’t this good. It’s now like he has power steering and brakes lol. I stop he stops, I walk he walks right next to me. I give a gentle pull and he sits. No random sniffing or momentarily forgetting we’re on a walk. This collar is so simple yet amazing. Now that I know it works I’m waiting for him to grow then I’m getting the larger size in black stainless steel.

This training collar is the only collar when placed on our two year old intact male European Doberman's neck make him respond to our commands immediately. Not because we pop the collar, rather due to the fact he knows it is time to pay attention and behave appropriately. Absolutely no pulling, and walks politely at my side.
