I do not use shock collars or prong collars, but I do not think that we should waste tax payer monies to ban them and enforce a ban on them.

I think education IS the key. The pros and the cons can educate people and people can make up their own minds about how they want to proceed and with what tools.

If we want to get on a ban band wagon, there are probably people out there who have tried to ban or that would ban one or more of the following:

Prong collars
crates
kennels
chains
collars
halti/head collars
harnesses
weight pulling
agility equipment
dog shows/trials
dog racing
ear cropping
tail docking
reproductive organs
dog clothing
choke chains
dog jewelry
hunting with dogs

and a bazillion other things I am not thinking of right now.
