The person behind the collar

Meet Joel Silverman

Joel has spent his whole life training dogs. He is an author of five books, hosted two nationally syndicated TV series, has worked on movie sets, TV commercials, and with everyday dog owners who just want a calmer walk. He built this collar because he was tired of seeing dogs choke, pull, and get hurt by old style training tools.

The Alternative Training Collar was made to fix that. It sits low on the neck, away from the throat. It gives you control without pain or fear. Dogs feel safe. Owners feel confident.

What is the most effective dog training collar?
