Our dog was a rescue who’s previous owner used a prong collar. This collar was so tight on his neck that we had to bring the dog to the vet to have it cut off, it was embedded into his neck. We have a jack/pug.
This being said, for small breeds I don’t recommend prong collars, I don’t think they’re needed. However, for big breeds who are much stronger, I do see their value, as long as they’re used correctly.
