Stop a dog from chasing chickens!

[IvyYo]

Here's some advice, if you are trying to break your dog from chasing chickens! We have a little Maltese, Chihuahua and he loves to go after chickens. We have a shock collar and he has been doing great! Every time he chases chickens we shock him.( We have to be careful shocking him too much because he's little..) We let him run free with a shock collars a few times a day, and he loves it!!! If you are trying to break your dog from chasing chickens I recommend a shock collar!!

Great! It will get to the point he will know how to behave just from your voice commands and the fact that the collar is put on.
Good job!

I'm sure shock collars work but I can only imagine what my wife would do if I had one on and tried to sneak a bite as she is cooking something.

My aunt has a shock collar for her dog. That warning vibration straightens it up real quick.

My understanding re: shock collars is that you can get some unpredictable results. Dogs don't understand cause/effect and stimuli quite the way humans do. The TL;DR is that using them can sometimes lead to aggression at the thing(s) they're paying attention to when they get shocked because they associate it with pain/surprise/distress. The stock example is a collar that shocks them when they bark at a letter carrier, leading them to view the letter carrier as a painful threat.

Your mileage may vary, but that's a tool I've avoided with ours because of those risks.
