    Dog collars are designed to be used for several different purposes. With a collar around the neck of a dog, people can recognize or control the dog. 


    Traditional Collars for Dogs

     
    Traditional dog collars come in a variety of fun colors, decors, studs and bling. They are made of different types of material and various sizes. Some collars may have additional perks such as flea, tick and mosquito protection,  stretch and breakaway collars to prevent strangulation. You can find reflective and LED safety collars as well. Do you want a quick release collar with a plastic clasp or a more secure buckle collar that takes a bit more time? To size the traditional collar use a tailor tape measure, this is a cloth tape measure. Should a tailor tape measure be unavailable to you substitute a string and ruler to measure your dog's neck. Slip two fingers under the tape measure or string. This will be the size you need. 


    Controlling Collars for Dogs


    The choke collar received its name because of the way they can choke a dog when they are not used properly. When they are used in the correct way, they distribute the pressure of the collar in an even manner and this prevents the dog from choking. They are designed to help control dogs that might be unruly. The pressure the collar puts on the dog can cause them to calm down very quickly. 
    A pinch collar is another type that is designed to help control a dog. There is a muscle in the neck of the dog that gets pinched when they pull to hard on the leash.  This works to send a very clear message to the dog, that what they are doing is not ok. These work well for dogs that need to be trained, because it helps to teach them the appropriate behavior very quickly. As soon as a dog understands what the correct behavior is, it is ok to use a collar that does not provide a pinch. 

    It is extremely helpful for both new and old dog owners to understand more about the dog collars. With so many different options available, it can be difficult to choose the best collar. Remember that many of the factors involved with choosing a collar and a lead, depend upon the size of the dog and how the dog behaves.
