Closed petition Ban the sale and use of prong, or pinch, collars for dogs

Closed on

On prong, or pinch collars, the RSPCA says:

“When a dog pulls on the lead, the prongs of the collar close around the neck which can cause pain or discomfort. Research has shown that aversive training techniques… can compromise dog welfare.”
