Out of the loop and don’t really care about strangers’ internet drama, just thought I would point out that used correctly / as intended, E-Collars are not shock collars.

Dogs have different levels of focus / fixation. Physical stimuli can be necessary to break through fixation when dogs are unresponsive to verbal commands.

As an escalation from the vibration function, the intention of the electric stimulation is that it triggers a muscle spasm.

The Educator e-collars can be configured for 100 levels of stimulation and the manual outlines a very clear calibration process to ensure you’re not actually shocking your dog.
