Re: The dog walker left her choke collar...wait, what!?!?
Have you had a conversation with her when you hired her about what kind of collar to use when walking Piper? I wouldn't be that pissed about it just yet. There are people that use these collars, and know how to use these collars the correct way. I've used them to train, and used correctly, they can be a great training tool. Maybe she is one of these people that actually knows how to use them. Maybe she isn't. Bottom line is, if you haven't told her how you want Piper walked, to be consistent with your training, then I really don't think you have anything to be mad about. If you have told her in the beginning then I would just remind her, and ask her why she was using a chain.
Like Willow just said, if you do not want her using a chain, then just explain to her that you don't want her walking Piper with a chain and you'd rather her just use the collar or harness and lead that you already have for Piper. Shouldn't be a big issue at all.
