How to Use a Detachable Collar
Different dog collars are used for different training methods and general restraint. A collar is best used for walking or training a dog that does not pull hard or does not have problems with his throat or neck. Dogs with respiratory issues should not be walked on a collar as the action of the leash on the collar can slightly restrict the airway. Collars are made of leather, nylon or cloth. Detachable collars usually have buckles or quick-release clasps and while they always need a human to get them on or off, they are simple to work and can be undone quickly if need be.
Things You'll Need
Instructions
Measure your dog's neck at the widest point.
Unclip the collar and lay it out flat on a table or counter.
Use your measurement of your dog's neck to determine the length of the collar.
Leave about 2 inches of space at the end of the collar to enable the collar to spin around the dog's neck without coming off.
Place the collar around your dog's neck and clip or buckle it.
Use the ring attached to the collar for your dog's leash. |
