No, it is not safe to use electric shock collars on your dog. These devices emit an electric shock as a form of punishment, which can cause fear and anxiety in the animal and may lead to aggression. It is best to use positive reinforcement techniques and always keep your dog securely leashed in public spaces.

It is not recommended to use electric shock collars on your dog, as they can cause stress and behavioral changes. Also, there is a risk of the collar misfiring and giving an unexpected shock which could frighten your pet. There are safer and more effective methods for preventing wandering such as microchipping or tagging your dog that won't cause any negative effects on his behavior. Additionally, providing enough exercise and training should help keep him contented and under control at all times.
