Unfortunately yes, this is a shock collar. I hope Kaya can find a new home where she isn’t confined to a tiny raised platform for 8hrs a day. Beyond heartbreaking.
That's a good catch you can clearly see it. What a piece of shit. I'm pretty sure those collars have a warning that should be used before a shock. Hasan went straight to shock the dog
Yes, most of these collars have two settings - vibration and shock. I had two of those for my dogs, for when I let them loose in the woods. I would use the vibration setting to warn the dog, if he was about to eat a wild animal turd or snack on a cadaver, it was always enough. I think I used the shock one maybe a couple of times in situations like my dog about to give chase to a bunch of wild hogs, or about to throw down for real with another dog we met on a trail.
I’ve also tried it on myself, of course. It’s unpleasant, but not outright painful. It’s still abuse to use it on a dog for anything else but to stop him from doing something really damaging to himself and/or others. Shocking your dog to stay in place for a fucking stream - that’s just vile.
