Speak with the instructors, every dog is different and you might need a certain size, type or length collar. Speciality collars should be used at the trainers direction. Prongs and chokes are safer then buckle or harnesses for training with proper supervision. Have fun.

Community answer · Karen Wood · 2019-09-21

You may use any regular collar and leash. Prong or choke collars are not advised. I like martingale collars for training.

We had a 5 mo old Beagle puppy that is a bit high strung. She is an aggressive chewer and will bite hard during play. She is a jumper on other people and dogs and pulls on leash when walking. We felt that she needed some good training. She is not the first dog we have had but definitely the most feisty. Saw great reviews on this company so we signed up. IT WAS A DISASTER!  They only wanted to work with the dogs that were behaving.  Would just walk away when my husband would ask questions...didnt want to be bothered with a high maintenance pup. Isn't that the point of going to training..to teach her and us how to help her ? After the second class of no help we stopped going...they obviously were only interested in working with the easy dogs. They never even bothered to call to see if there was a problem when we didn't show up for the 3rd class.  That was 80 bucks down the drain! We took her to a behaviorist through our vets office and let me tell you this....we have only had 2 classes and what a difference! She now will sit on command...she is learning appropriate chewing and not biting.  She also has learned not to jump on ppl as much and quickly stops if she does and walks beautifully on her lead. She still has work to do but what a difference after just 2 classes compared to a nightmare and no improvement at all with Upper Suncoast.
