Purposes Of Buckle Dog Collars

By Marci Nielsen


The right type of neckband is required regardless if puppy owners are strolling down the beach, parading their pet at a show or training it to sit or stay. Different types of neckbands are designed for exercise, larger dogs, excitable mutts, training or puppies. Although neckbands are made from different materials, they fulfill different functions. This is the reason why puppy owners should get the right one for their pet.

A number of neckbands are commonly used. Such are often similar to human belts and these are known as buckle dog collars. A metal fastener is secured to a flat piece or slightly rounded material. The purpose is to be able to adjust the size to make the metal fastener fit into the holes.

Aside from the several colors and designs, these are frequently made in nylon, natural fabric or leather. Names of puppies can actually be burned into a leather whether embroidered or designer. Various basic neckbands can be found in the market as makers have considered the safety features that should be fulfilled.

The breakaway neckband was designed to pull apart under a great deal of stress such as the canine catching himself on a fence post and may possibly choke. Some have release tabs that break the neckband sooner than it takes to unfasten. Aside from choosing closures based on their preferences, puppy owners should choose one based on the habits of their pet.

Training neckbands, on the other hand, are made for puppies or newly adopted dogs. Dogs will easily figure out what they should not do with the help of this without them being hurt or abused. It would be best for owners to ask an expert canine trainer before purchasing such neckbands as this will help them prevent any mishaps in the future.

In comparison to the other training neckbands available, choke neckbands may appear like torture tools, but are actually less harmful. These are frequently worn by large canines. Its inside is being surrounded by evenly spaced and perpendicular prongs made of metal. The neck of your pet will be pushed by means of the prongs as you pull the connected leash. It is a safe inhibition from running away, jumping or tugging on the lead if used properly.

The choke or slip type of neckbands are the other kinds. Instead of a fixed size, these form a slipknot. This means the diameter of the neckband shrinks when the owner pulls on the lead. It is possible to correct the unwanted behavior of the puppy with a quick pull because these are durable and heavy. Metal chain is a popular choice too and are available in nylon, leather or braided metal. It is even possible for owners to link the leash by making it a fixed neckband, ideal for casual walks.

Another kind of neckbands are called halter. Such are often placed surrounding the neck and nose of the puppy so that the pet owner has more control. Still, owners should be able to differeniate this from a muzzle. A muzzle prohibits the animal to open its mouth. Canies are allowed to bark, drink, accept treats and yawn when halter neckbands are used. A number of trainers recommend these for a number of puppies that react to discreet tugs.
