While these ancient images do not invoke our couch hogging, Nascar dog collar- sporting pups of today, this brief history shows that dogs and humans have walked a very clear path together over the years. For many occupations, working dogs were part and parcel of the farm. If you had a flock of sheep, you also likely had several white sheep dogs- white so that you could see them at night guarding the flock. These dogs often wore wolf collars, which were collars with spikes on the outside to protect the dogs’ necks from bites in the event of a wolf attack. On a farm, you wanted a black dog to guard your barn, all the better for sneaking up on your intruders. Of course, let’s not forget hunting dogs and guard dogs either; both played important roles in the great scheme of things.

In today’s world of NFL dog collars and fashionable stud collars- these studs echo back to the days of wolf collars, but no longer serve such a purpose- some collars are all function, while others are all about style. Flea collars and Elizabethan collars are both examples of the functional category. The former are usually used as supplementary collars, as their main purpose is to repel fleas via the chemicals they contain, while Elizabethan collars are those large cone-shaped collars that keep dogs from scratching their heads or licking wounds. Those are a far cry different from snapping NFL dog collars around your dogs’ necks for the big race on the weekend.

The most common type of collar is a buckle collar, which might also be called a flat collar. These are usually fastened with a buckle and are often made of leather of nylon webbing. It is common practice to hang an ID tag from such a collar, and there is usually a loop (metal or material) on the collar through which to attach a leash. One other option used is the break-away collar. These are flat collars with a built-in safety feature that allows the dog to pull free of the collar, but only if excessive force is applied. These collars are used in circumstances where a non-quick release collar might get caught, resulting in strangulation.

It’s been said that dogs are man’s best friends, and that’s perfectly shown in our societies today. Not only are dogs given expensive dog foods or gourmet dog treats, they’re also showered with a lot of fancy accessories.

Before, dogs used to sleep on the cold hard floor, but now, comfortable and soft beds for dogs are made available in the market. What’s even more amazing is that manufacturers are coming up with more dog accessories ideas such as Halloween costumes, dog toys and even dog sweaters to keep the dogs warm during winters.

The ordinary dog collars are slowly being replaced with something fancy. If you think dog collars are still those boring pieces of leather with a hard buckle attached on them, then you should try to visit a few pet specialty shops.

The mall has a wide collection of fancy dog collars. Now, collars come in different shape, color and size to suit the taste of the finickiest dog owner. They could even be made out of different materials such as nylon, leather, suede, metal and fabric.

Different designs are also available. No matter what your preferred design is, you’re sure you could find one to match your dog and fit your taste. In fact, it’s possible for your dog to wear a collar that perfectly matches whatever it is you are wearing. Examples of beautiful patterns of dog collars are polka dots, crystal, mink, bone, denim, crocodile prints and even Victorian.

If you think these collars are fancy, then you probably haven’t seen a dog collar attached with adjustable buckles, speakers, reflectors and RFID. A dog collar can even contain a GPS device so you can locate your dog wherever it goes. Now, just how fancy is that?

There are also lighted dog collars which can help keep your dogs safe. If you usually bring your dog outside for a walk at night or during foggy days, these lighted collars will enable you to see your dog even if it’s half a mile away. Usually, these illuminated collars run with an ordinary watch battery, and are weather- and shock-resistant.

There are also fancy dog collars which are highly personalized. Most of them are made-to-order. If you want a beautiful dog collar that comes with beads or small letters spelling your dog’s name, you can just order online.

Some manufacturers would even allow you to personally your dog’s collars. So if you have a great idea on how a collar should be made for your very special pet, then you should try to give your local pet shops a visit.

But dog manufacturers didn’t stop there. They know that dog lovers are not reluctant to spend a few hundred dollars just to accessorize their dogs, thus, they took full advantage of this. The most exquisite dog collars have probably been designed.

There are collars which are made of expensive materials like gold, platinum and silver. With precious gemstones such as sapphires, rubies and crystals embedded on them, these collars are more of jewelry than a dog collar.

Gone are the days when dog collars are simply just name tags. Dog collars also speak of the dog owner’s fashion and style preference. In addition, these dog collars are just one of the ways you can show how much you value your dog.

With such fancy dog collars available, it’s make you wonder if the dog itself is able to appreciate such extravagance. Well, whether the dog appreciates these fancy dog collars or not doesn’t really matter. What really matters is that you, as a dog lover and your dog’s best friend, were able to get your dog a fancy collar he deserves.

And if you’re feeling a bit more extravagant, you might even consider giving your dog other dog products like a throw blanket or dog totes. Do you know that the dog accessories industry is becoming a multi-million dollar industry? And that’s because of the numerous dog lovers like you who would probably spend a fortune for your pets.

That’s also one of the reasons why dog owners are the easiest people to find gifts for. Dog owners shower their dogs with so much attention, that you can’t possibly go wrong if you get them something for their pets. So don’t stress yourself too much thinking on what gift to give them.

You need to look at your best friend’s behavior before deciding which style of dog collar to buy. If you are taking your dog to a special event or to a special gathering and you want them to look really good try getting a dog hound collar and leash. For small dogs a simple flat collar will suffice. For larger dogs you might try a prong collar with a wide leather band.

If your dog loves water and water sports you should buy a nylon collar. Anything else will not hold up as well to constant immersion in water. Leather is ok but it will crack and age quickly unless it’s dried and polished after each dipping.

Some Dog Collar Types and their uses

Buckle collars are usually adjustable and do not tighten on your dog’s neck once fastened. Using a rolled leather collar avoids the chafing or hair breaking that can occur using flat collars.

Leather is an advantageous material for a dog collar. It is very strong, head wearing, weather proof and comfortable for your best friend. There are flat collars for dogs with shorter hair, and rounded collars for longer haired dogs. As mentioned above this is to stop breaking the hair around your dogs neck. Try and keep the dog collar as thin as you can while maintaining the strength for your dogs comfort.

Another type of collar that can also look fancy is called the Elizabethan fancy dog collar. This type of collar is for dogs recovering from surgery. Basically it is the funnel shaped and it goes over your best friend’s head keeps them from biting stitched wounds or surgery incisions. If your best friend does have to wear this type of collar there is no need to be embarrassed, you can make the best of it by painting it, or decorating it with colorful decorations, stick on synthetic gems or even ribbons!

Electronic collars are also called remote collars or shock collars by those that don’t like them. The idea behind these collars is to deliver an electric shock to the hound as a correction. A low-level shock is given at first but if the canine continues to disobey the intensity is increased.

It has been said that using an electric shock collar desensitizes the pet to the shock but they still prove to be effective training collars. Electronic collars should only be used for training and should never be used without a professional trainers guidance. Incorrectly used, these collars can ruin a hound’s self confidence, good will and any desire to work.

The head collar is similar to a figure of eight with a strap around the neck directly behind your dog’s ears and above his Adam’s apple. The second strap fits around his nose, close to the eyes and back of the lips. The straps are connected under your best friend’s chin.

The action of the leash when correcting your best friend is very different with a head collar verses any of the other training devices. So it’s important that you receive proper instruction on its use from a qualified trainer.

Most trainers use the pinch collar as a last resort and only for very short periods of time. As with the slip collar, attaching tags, tying your pet up and general unsupeervised use of pinch collars should be avoided.

If you take your dogs hunting dog Tracking systems are very helpful in finding dogs that are lost. Certain dog tracking systems also allow the dog handler or owner to determine what your canine is doing by using certain behavior systems that form part of the collar. You will be able to tell if a hound has stopped, is still moving, if a dog is barking, or if he has treed an animal.

One of the essentials of a dog collar is to make sure that it’s personalized and has your dogs name and your contact details on it. This will make it easy for someone to get in touch with you if your dog gets lost or strays.

It can also help keep your best friend calm in a distressing situation. Your dog is lost and while he may be amongst strangers, they will learn his name from his collar and he’ll feel less threatened if called by name.

Finally pick a canine collar that suits your dogs personality and size. A giant black leather collar with studs may not suit a toy poodle, or a pink ribbon style collar a British Bulldog. After all it is part of your dogs image so pick a hound collar that fits!

The dog collar market is swamped with conventional as well as more unusual types of canine collars. These serve a variety of functions and needs. As a pet lover and pet owner, you should learn that different kinds of dogs need different types of dog collars.

But once your dog has stopped barking or if barking has never been a issue what do you need to consider in a dog collar? If you are taking your pet to a special event or to a special gathering and you want them to look really good try getting a fancy dog collar and leash. For small dogs a simple flat collar will suffice. For larger dogs you might try a prong collar a wide leather band.

What Are The Different Types?

Buckle collars are usually adjustable and do not tighten on your best friend’s neck once fastened. Using a rolled leather collar avoids the chafing or hair breaking that can occur using flat collars.

Quick Release collars are also adjustable and do not tighten once fastened.

The hottest thing for your well-mannered hound, head collars are not to be mixed up with muzzles. They still allow your dog to bark, pant, drink, chew and even bite.

Choke chains are metal chain links of various sizes with a ring on each. These collars should only be used while actively training or exercising your best friend. This type of collar is usually sold by length, so ask for assistance when getting a slip collar.

How Are the Different Types Of Dog Collar Used?

The initial training using a head collar should be done under the supervision of a qualified trainer, even though a head collar is considered to be more humane than a pinch or slip collar. If you have a very tight lead on a hound, the strap around the muzzle will push into its eyes and that is as bad as a Halti which pushes into the eyes anyway.

Any number of of the ideal trainers feel that the most useful training collar is to have no collar at all. The problem is that if you start out using a training collar your dog may know to only obey when wearing the collar. Collars are at the most useful training tools. At the worst they are training crutches.

To ensure that you are using the ideal collar as a training aid for your dog, you should seek the advice of a professional dog trainer.

You need to ensure that your best friend collar fits well. Badly fitted collars and their incorrect usage may be harmful to your dog and in the worst case it can prove to be fatal. A properly fitted collar has at least a two finger width space between the collar and the neck of the pet but it should not slip over his ears.

Hunting Dog Collars

Certain canine tracking systems also allow the canine handler or owner to determine what your dog is doing by using certain behavior systems that form part of the collar. You will be able to tell if a hound has stopped, is still moving, if a dog is barking, or if he has treed an animal.

When you can’t see your dogs due to cover, terrain or distance, radio telemetry dog tracking collars are very good at keeping track of any amount of dogs. These dog tracking collars enable the handler or owner to find the location of one dog at a time very quickly.

Some Final Thoughts

Anything other than a quick-release collar or a flat buckle should only be used during training sessions. You should aim to get away from using the training collar. If your pet only responds when wearing a training collar then he’s not really been trained.
