Caucasian ovcharka/volka

Hi to everyone i have enjoyed reading many articles on this forum its great.

I have a question that i would like to ask.

Will a Caucasian Ovcharka(co) respond to a e collar?I ask as I am seriously interested in buying a caucasian and have spent a number of years researching the breed and i have always had working line GSD's.

I understand a CO is an independent thinker thats something I admire but if the dog as it matures starts to display undesirable behaviour i think a e collar if used correctly and only when absolutely necessary could be a great aid with a dog that is so large because from the ones i have seen i do not think many people would be able to restrain one with a collar and leash if the dog suddenly decides to do something that the handler thinks is undesirable.

I read that on the recent volka 12,14, month post someone who has a co is using an e collar with great results i just wondered if other CO owners have used them?

Thanks in advance for any help give, it is much appreciated.
