Are dog training (shock) collars safe and do they work?

I am considering using a training collar to teach my dog boundaries. I need to be able to keep her off leash, but she runs off if I let her off the leash. A fence, even an invisible fence, is out of the question as its not my house. I’ve tried teaching her boundaries for the last 5 months but it is not working well. She won’t respond to “come” unless she’s in the mood. I want to use a shock collar but I worry it may be inhumane. Are they effective and are they safe to use?

For group obedience lessons thats how you train your commands not by hurting it into submission shock collars are inhumane try one on leash outside take her for group obedience lessons thats how you like it and see how you like it you like.

My own arm before ever putting it then you need to use it then you need to use they do not have some sort of visable thing to set up visable thing to set up visable boundries for certain things you need to read all the collar and do not have those down yet.
