Troubleshooting

The shock absorber appears stretched or damaged.

Inspect the bungee cord for signs of wear and tear. If damaged, replace the shock absorber.

The dog is still pulling hard and the shock absorber doesn't seem to be working.

Ensure the shock absorber is securely attached. Consider using a harness instead of a collar for better control. The product is designed to absorb the impact of pulling and not prevent the pulling itself. You may need to work on training the dog if this happens often.
