General Description
The choke collar shall be designed and constructed to fit around the dogs neck at the base of the skull and provide the handler a means of controlling the dog while offering controlled negative re-enforcement to condition the dog not to strain against its leash. The negative re-enforcement consists of automatic tightening and loosening of the collar proportional to the tension on the leash, which causes disconfort to the dog without harm. The collar shall be capable of withstanding the dynamic load imparted by stopping a moving mass having a kenetic energy of at least 120 foot-pounds without failure or damage incluking; fracture or permanent deformation of the leash attachment point, the rings, the martingale, or the buckle; failure to release of the buckle; tearing or other damage to the collar material. And failure of or damage to joints (e.G. Broken stitches or separation of other bonds).
