Civilized dog ownership is something many parents should practice. Using a leash while walking your dog can prevent the dog from getting lost and is also a sign of respect to others. Therefore, a dog collar is a must-have item. So how do you choose and wear a dog collar? Today, the editor will help everyone understand it.

Do you know how to correctly choose, wear, and use a collar?

1. Nowadays, the materials for collars are truly diverse, and each material has its characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages. Therefore, when selecting a collar, parents should first consider their dog's body type. For example, if your dog's neck is thick, but you buy a smaller-sized collar, it will choke the dog's neck. If the collar is too large, the dog may easily slip out of it.

2. Parents must pay attention to the tightness when putting the collar on the dog. When first worn, the dog might feel uncomfortable and try hard to escape the collar's restraint. However, this is just a process, and the dog will gradually adapt.

In addition, parents need to pay attention to one more thing: do not tighten the collar too much out of fear that the dog will escape, as this will choke its neck and make breathing difficult. Of course, the collar should not be too loose, or the dog may easily slip out. Generally, it is recommended to leave about the width of one finger's space between the dog's neck and the collar when fitting it.
