How to choose a dog collar or harness
Pet owners often use a collar for the purpose of restraining their dog or cat. Collars should not be used for restraint. Your dog or cat can easily escape from a standard collar and martingale and pinch collars can cause injury. Pinch and Martingale Collars should be used only by trained professionals and standard collars should only be used for the purpose attaching your pet’s identification. A harness is the proper tool for restraining your dog or cat and attaching a leash. Think your dog is so well trained you don’t need to keep them on a leash? Please read this article about the tragic death of a canine officer http://www.gainesville.com/article/20100710/ARTICLES/7101002
Choose the appropriate size harness for your dog or cat by measuring the circumference from around the belly to the top of the shoulder and adding five percent. You can do this easily with a flexible tape measure. NEVER leave your pet on a tie out without being supervised.
