How to choose a collar for a dog: the rules are simple, but they still exist
A collar is one of those “accessories” that every dog needs.
The main requirement for this detail in a dog's image is that it should be comfortable for the dog: wide enough, soft and, of course, durable.
To make sure that your new purchase will not rub your pet's neck, do a small test by inserting your fingers between the animal's body and the collar - two fingers should fit freely.
Don't think that the more spacious the collar, the better for your four-legged friend - if the dog is active, it will not be difficult for it to turn around and run away.
Perhaps the most practical solution is a collar, the length of which can be adjusted by the owner.
When buying a collar, you should also check the reliability of the ring to which the leash snap is attached, and if you have chosen a synthetic product, make sure that it has a lining made of soft fabric - this could be fleece, wool, felt, etc.
For puppies, small animals, or pets that are overly active, a harness that is attached to the body rather than the neck is more suitable.
These models are also used for show dogs with thick coats, such as spaniels, setters and chow chows, etc.
Animals with particularly sensitive necks require collars with a widened front section, similar to a bib.
If you do everything right when choosing a set consisting of a collar and a leash, the equipment will serve you for a long time and provide comfort for your pet.
It is important to regularly check the condition of dog "accessories" and promptly replace worn-out elements with new ones.
