How would you like a leather or plastic band around your neck 24/7? How much would you like it if it was just the littlest bit too tight? Ouch right? Well today's post is all about how to make sure your pet collar fits PROPERLY.
If you can't bring your pet into a pet supply store to try on collars, than make sure to buy more than one, you can always return one later during your next trip.
You don't want a collar that's loose enough to slip over your pet's head, be lost or loose enough to catch on something that might choke your pet.
Choose a collar made of a material that is soft and comfortable. Test: wrap it around your own wrist, how does it feel?
Remove the collar and any other training products that attached to your dog at night, so they can get a good night's sleep.
Check your pet's collar every day by making sure your fingers can fit easily, but snugly, between the collar and your pet's neck. This is especially important for growing pets.
