Nothing wrong with a prong if there is a dog in the crowd that can HURT your dog, you need control.

I've actually had something similar to this happen to me. I was at Petsmart talking out loud with a store associate about our pit mix Tyson, who pulled really bad. He suggested a prong or martingale collar. The lady next to us, who had two very large rottweilers on choke chains, interrupted and explained that she thought prong collars were animal abuse, and that I should be ashamed of myself as an animal owner if I decided to get one. I just said "Uhhh, okay." And let her leave. I'm not really confrontational. Well, on the way up to the register, I saw her walking with her Rotts, and she was yanking them both so hard with the choke chains that their front feet were coming off the ground. Hypocrites are retarded, indeed.

It's basically the same thing if used properly. A quick and easy way to correct your dog. They don't like it, but it's not harming them. Stupid people.
