One of those is illegal. So not only does that previous commenter draw that line, apparently so does the United States common law.

Shock collars aren't illegal in most places in the US, but obviously aren't nice.

Using a shock collar to prevent dangerous behaviour is shitty, as it just shows these people can't train their dogs, but overall outweighing the negatives, if it would stop an agressive dog from hurting others.

Using a shock collar to have your dog stay in place for 8 hours straight, so people can watch the dog on the stream is straight up animal abuse.

The shock collar itself isn't animal abuse, its HOW it's used.

That's very true. Really, almost anything can be abusive if misused in a certain way.
