I.F. corrects nothing, if you train them right.

If you're going to try one, hurry up so you can tell Michelle, . . .

None of my monsters, but the boarding dogs, UGH!
I had one that was signed up to board for 10 days, passed it's trial day, but barked incessantly the rest of the time AT NIGHT!!! It was a Sh!thead . . . I mean, Shih Tzu, so it's bark was too high pitched for my regular cit collar to work. Needless to say he's not boarding again! So I'm tempted to spend the $$$$$ to get one for possible future annoyances.
I.F. shouldn't be "correcting interest in other dogs." If this is happening, the dog wasn't trained on it properly, and if the dog was trained on it properly and is that interested in other dogs, it shouldn't be used.

Make sure the owners give you permission to use one, lest you make a little dog owner angry.

Exactly. That is a similar problem to useing a squirt bottle. You can end up with a dog that runs in terror when you get out the windex... although that would give you a great excuse not to wash windows!
