Canine acral lick dermatitis is characterized by excessive licking on areas of one or more limbs, usually near the carpus or tarsus. In this prospective study, five dogs with acral lick dermatitis were treated with remote punishment utilizing precisely controlled, momentary shock from an electronic training collar. The problem resolved in four dogs. Resolution was defined as one month in which no shocks (i.e., no electronic shock collar worn) or Elizabethan collars were utilized and no licking had occurred sufficiently to recreate a gross skin lesion. Relapse during the follow-up period of six-to-12 months occurred in two dogs, but licking stopped after brief retraining periods.
犬类肢端舔舐性皮炎的特征是一只或多只肢体的某些部位过度舔舐，通常靠近腕关节或跗关节。在这项前瞻性研究中，五只患有肢端舔舐性皮炎的犬接受了远程惩罚治疗，使用电子训练项圈精确控制的瞬间电击。四只犬的问题得到了解决。解决的定义是在一个月内未使用电击（即未佩戴电子电击项圈）或伊丽莎白项圈，且没有发生足以再次造成明显皮肤损伤的舔舐行为。在6至12个月的随访期内，两只犬出现了复发，但经过短暂的再训练期后舔舐行为停止。
