What is a choker collar?
1 Answer

A choke collar sees a chain looped around the neck — a dog’s neck — that tightens when the dog owner pulls on the attached leash. The prong is a collar of metal spikes. When the collar tightens as a result of pulling on the leash, it will pinch the neck of the dog as part of a training maneuver. The Humane Society of the United States has found that these collars are inhumane for use on pets.
