I had the same worry when I first got a PetSafe collar for my beagle. What really helped was starting on the lowest setting and using it only during short training sessions, then gradually extending the time. I also made a point to reward him immediately when he behaved correctly, so he didn’t associate the collar with punishment. For reference, the manual has a lot of helpful tips on fitting, settings, and safety—you can check it out here: https://manuals.online/petsafe. It really helped me get a clear picture of proper use.
