Prune a transplanted peach tree

Hi ,

I wonder if anyone has a comment on [this[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/always-prune-tree-branch-to-collar-dsvw-vd~3135629) thread? I recently transplanted a peach tree (sorry unsure on type - but it's suited to Ontario Canada). The peach tree had a few small branches that seemed to be dead. They sprouted no leaves and were brown. I thought it best to prune these off. I pruned back top the area where the branch was green but i wondered if i should remove the entire branch to the collar to avoid it sprouting many shoots. I know this is not the time to prune but i've already pruned two branches half their length. Their are others i could do but perhaps it's better to wait to next season.

cheers
