Heres how to put on a prong collar
1. Grasp one prong with one hand and its neighboring prong with your other hand.
2. Pinch one of these prongs together until it disengages from its neighbor.
3. Move your hands apart to open the collar into a U-shape.
4. Place it around your dog's neck, up high behind his ears.
5. Slip the two disengaged prongs back together, closing the collar around your dog's neck.
6. The collar should be snug enough that it doesn't slide around. If you need to make it smaller, take it off and remove one of the prongs. If you need to make it larger, you can buy additional prongs or move up to the next size collar.
7. Arrange the collar on your dog's neck so the prongs are on top of the neck, where the neck is toughest. The section of the collar without the prongs goes underneath the neck.
8. Slide the ring that the leash attaches to onto the right side of your dog's neck.
You may find that your dog needs a prong collar only for a very short time, to settle him down and bring his rambunctiousness or stubbornness under control. Then you can try the regular buckle collar again.
