Tips For Buying A Dog Collar

Dog collars are very fashionable and a must for your dog outdoors. A dog collar could help your dog come back home if you have the identification ticket around the neck. It's also a way for your dog to show to the world that he is stylish.
If you own a dog it is normal that you would have a dog collar but many people have at least half a dozen dog collars at home. It is trendy to have different types of dog collars. Dogs too like a change and love to wear different collars. There are different types and designs of dog collars available in the markets. Most dog owners buy dog collars of different colors and while they take their dog out, they try to match their dress with the dogs collar. Celebrities always try to out beat the normal people and always bring their dogs with some unique and fabulous-looking collars. For ages dog collars have been used by dog owners to make the dog look more fashionable and fabulous.
Given below are a few tips that need to be kept in mind while buying a dog collar:
The first point to keep in mind while buying a dog collar is to make sure that the dog collar is comfortable and fits the dog's neck. If the dog's collar does not fit the dog's neck it would lead to soreness. At the same time if it is loose then the dog could slip out.
The dog collar and leash should not be heavy and irritate the dog's neck and throat. While buying a dog collar you should read the specifications of the dogs collar such as weight, suitable for which age, etc.
If you are a proud owner of a big and ferocious dog then make sure the dogs collar is a little heavier so that when the dog starts running you can handle it easily with the leash in your hand.
The buckles of the dog collars should be strong and made of leather, which won't fall apart.
You can buy a dog collar for anywhere from $10 to more than $100, but make sure the dog collar is comfortable for your dog. ( by Bob Backstrom )
