Dog owners are advised to remove the collar from their pet's neck after returning home from a walk.
The idea makes sense, because at home the dog has no need for an accessory.
A pet should not wear a collar all the time, writes MIA " Russia Today " with reference to the head of the Russian Cynological Federation Vladimir Golubev.
It is necessary outside, but at home it can be dangerous for the animal.
The expert notes that a pet can easily get caught on some object with its collar.
This could cause neck injury or even strangulation.
Dog handlers advise owners of active and playful dog breeds to think about safety first.
Another reason to remove the collar is the risk of chafing the skin of the neck or causing irritation.
You should also not leave your dog at home wearing electric collars or anti-bark collars.
In such cases, the negative consequences can be stress, pain, and deterioration of the animal’s general well-being.
Therefore, the expert recommends removing the collar after a walk.
This habit will help to avoid injuries, discomfort, and the methods of education will be built on positive experience, not painful sensations.
