Dog collars: features and tips for use

dog collars
Collar is an important accessory for a dog. It allows us to take a walk with us without the danger of escaping.
For this reason choosing the right collar is not a matter of fact; It must have particular characteristics, which may vary according to the breed of the animal or its indole.
A collar must first be durable, to prevent it from breaking as you carry the dog. That's why it has to be adjusted to the dog's weight.
A small dog is good to have a light collar, because one too heavy could cause physical problems or irritations.
Conversely a large dog will need a sturdy collar to prevent it from breaking easily. It must then bear the dog's identification name and phone number, in case you lose it.
Remember that the collar should not be too tight around your neck to avoid breathing problems, dermatitis or hair loss in that area. In particular, verify that there are two fingers of space between the collar and the dog's neck.
It does not even have to be too wide, otherwise, the dog will risk pulling the collar while you're walking, this can be very dangerous, imagine if it is free and runs in the street! There are several models of dog collars, you just have to buy the perfect one for your four-legged friend. 
It is essential that the dog gets used to the puppy to wear the collar because it is a very important accessory that creates a kind of connection with the master. In fact, the latter through the collar and then the leash, will be able to bring your dog to the fun in the best way.
Bring your dog a walk, without collar and leash is dangerous! Fido may end up in a car or cause an accident because he simply has followed his instinct following an animal encountered on the road.
In education, the collar can also emulate the behavior that is commonly used to have the puppy's mom, that is, to control them by picking them up for the collotype.
When you first wear the collar to your dog, you may be very annoyed by the time you get used to this novelty.Especially do not make the traumatic moment, on the contrary, make sure to distract it from the collar, offer it with some dog biscuit or play.
Let him wear it gradually in such a way as to give time to become accustomed to it and to recognize it as an innocuous object, after which it uses it consistently. The same thing applies to an adult dog who has not been used to the collar.

Choose the right collar size 

On the market, there are so many types of collars for dogs of all sizes that will fit perfectly to the size of your beloved dog. Of course, you should choose the physical features of your 4-legged friend.
For example, if you have to buy collars for small dogs then it is best to choose them light and soft so that they do not weigh and tire the little one and not ruin his delicate mantle.
Instead, the collars for medium-sized dogs can vary a lot more in the materials, then obviously always depends on the breed. If you are talking about a dog that still has a good strength and strength then it is good to opt for a strong and safe collar as well as for large size dogs. Especially for the latter the choice must be very weighty not to underestimate the force, if you choose an unsuitable collar may also break it.
However, there are really many models, so do not worry that you will surely get the perfect one for you and your dog.

Dog Collar Materials

On the market there are various types of collars, of different materials. Each has specific features that we have to consider when purchasing. Let's see the main:

Leather collar

It is a very durable collar that lasts long. At first it can be hard and rigid, but with time it will soften in contact with the skin of the dog.
It is suitable for dogs with short or medium hair, while there are bumps for long hair. Surely the leather collar is one of the noblest accessories a dog can have.

But what features should the leather collar have? First of all the skin must be thick without cracks and cuts, and in no case too cumbersome.
Buckles and rings must be firm. As previously mentioned, the collar must have a plate with the name and address of the dog.
But how to take the right measures to the dog so that it does not go wrong? To correctly measure the size of a collar, you must measure the circumference of the dog's neck.

Types of collars

The question is whether the traditional collar or the collar is better, since there are pros and cons on both sides.
Regarding the collar, it would have the merit of controlling the animal more firmly and quickly.
The buttock would not do these damage, however, on some large-sized dogs it is difficult to control during the walk.
The collar must be subjected to periodic checks to check for no injury or breakage, even to avoid hazards while walking in the street. Otherwise it is advisable to change it.
Finally, it is not recommended to leave the collar on the dog all day because it runs the risk of ruining the hair and causing dermatitis, only when it is really needed. During most of the day leave it free without constraints.

It is the most used, of various materials, easy to find on the market. It is suitable for small or particularly restless dogs, who run the risk of strangulation.
