I haven't seen many bully breeds in your videos. In my and other owners experience, sheep dogs are not very emotionally effected by a negative stimulus and so respond to it well with minimal unintentional side effects. Perhaps because they are work focused not socially focused.
Bully breeds tend to be very sensitive and much more emotionally focused, perhaps because they are more social and less work oriented.
My girl is a confident dog with minimal reactivity. But a negative experience can effect her for a long time, and too much negativity in training effects her whole outlook and physical posture so long as that training continues. She tends to cower more easily and be more cautious which then has unintended consequences for conditioning her to general downtown stimulus throughout the day. And I don't use anything near the level of force you demonstrate here and in other videos.
I'm concerned that this technique and others involving prong collars clearly connect the owner to the negative stimulus in the dogs eyes.
People say working breeds love to please their owners. I think working breeds love to have a task and fulfil their job. Bully breeds are also real people pleasers in the sense they hate upsetting you and the desire to please their owners is much more personal. It's not just ticking tasks off a list, they focus more on trust.
How much do you use these techniques with bully breeds? Most if the dogs I see on your channel are working breeds who are less emotional and take instruction quickly (minimising overall negative exposure).

I work with plenty of bully, breeds including bulldogs, Frenchies, American Staffordshire terriers, Rez dogs- which are a mix of a pitbull and other breeds, etc.
Please note, using negative reinforcement as part of operant conditioning really works well because the dog learns to first escape the aversive and then, with proper classically conditioned markers/cues/signals/whatever you wanna call them, the dog then learns to avoid the aversive. And all animals, including us, live in a state of avoidance of aversive things.
The other part of what I do in training is build confidence in a dog. This is more important than anything else. So the combination of the two - building confidence through play, off leash walks, social interactions, (ie whatever reinforces that particular dogs confidence) combined with training using negative reinforcement - whether it’s prong collar or Ecollar, it’s a win-win situation. The dog then does not need the tool, but for the rare occurrence. Finally, I work with the dog in front of me. There are plenty of “working dogs“ that are insecure, and there are plenty of bully breeds that don’t really want to please the human.So, while that I agree with some of what you say, it’s not a one size fits all for me. I use the above description of my training style for all dogs. I hope this helps you to understand how and why I do things.
