Title: The misinformation (or disinformation) . . .
Review: in the equipment sections is truly scary. Sure, if you leave a pinch collar on a dog's neck all of the time, there will be reddened areas--but the same will happen if you leave any collar on for long periods. Pinch collars aren't intended to hurt (and if it hurts the dog, the trainer is using it incorrectly); rather, they exert even pressure around the dog's neck. Ordinary buckle ollars do more damage to a dog's trachea due to pulling than pinch collars do--and harnesses actually *encourage* pulling! (Why do you think they are used for sled dogs?!) I agree with the author's rejection of head harnesses, but only because they are *dangerous*, not because they leave dogs depressed. I'm sure the booklet is useful to some people, but I just couldn't get past those statements.
