Punishment-based tools like shock or prong collars can increase fear, anxiety, and aggression. While they may seem to work in the short term, they often cause long-term harm. Leading veterinary organizations, including the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists, recommend positive reinforcement methods, which are humane, science-based, and effective.
