Did you register to become a member on RS just to start crap? Since you sound like you're a know-it-all, perhaps you could contribute in a more useful way, like giving the OP tips on dog training instead of just spewing useless statements here and there. How about you explain what your method is to jerking the leash and how it can be done incorrectly? Since it's so obvious to you, it shouldn't be difficult at all.

Have you ever owned smaller dogs? Anyone familiar with small dogs would know there's a reason why harnesses are more often than not recommended instead of collars...and not just for training purposes or leash jerking. Even a small dog who pulls wearing a collar without being jerked around can damage their trachea. Unless you've worked at a vet clinic and seen the damages, don't say it's so obvious because it isn't if there are dogs going in with such injuries. Have you never seen or heard a small dog pulling and then coughing afterwards? Based on what you said, probably not.
