The Unintended Consequences of Shock Collars - It was in May of 2004 when we first published an article discouraging the use of shock collars. Ten years later or position hasn’t changed and there is even more research that indicates that shock collars are not only unnecessary, but that their use often has serious behavioral side effects and can even cause physical injury. On March 29, 2014 Kate and I discussed this topic on The Woof Meow Show and posted an updated article on our website. We discuss what shock collars are, how they work and what they’re used for as well as alternatives to shock collars. We discuss why we discourage their use and some of the dogs we have seen that have been negatively affected by being shocked. Lastly we discuss what veterinary behavioral experts say about shock collars. Listen to the show: bit.ly/1guqIdE Read the article: bit.ly/1lXIuGs
