Dog Training Collar for Sight Hounds and the like
The typical buckle collar type is a collar that can be fitted around your dogs neck, closed with a buckle and you can attach the tags on here. This fits on the dog and the important thing to know about this type of collar is when you go to purchase it you want to know the size of your dog's neck. Most stores will allow you to take your dog into the store to buy a collar that actually fits your dog, if you can't do that, then measure the dog's neck and buy the appropriate collar size.
This is a great collar type although some breeds of dogs like Sight Hounds and dogs that have essentially the same width as their neck as they have head, you can't really use this kind of collar because they will slip out of it. for Sight Hounds and dogs that tend to back their heads out of collars, there's a collar type which is sometimes called a half choke, sometimes called a martingale and this is the standard design, you can get them in many different materials.
This one is adjustable and is made out of nylon, this is made out of a leather piece that fits the dog's neck and it has a chain circling around. You fit the collar around the dog's neck and when the dog is walking politely and loosely, the whole system is fairly loose, you attach your lease to this ring. If the dog is pulling or trying to pull out of the collar, the collar tightens to around the dog's neck, when it does that, there's no way it can pull over the ears. So this collar type is used frequently with Sight Hound breeds and with dogs that tend to back out of their collars.
Again, this kind here is made to fit the dog's neck and if you've got a growing dog or if you might use the collar on multiple dogs, you can buy the nylon type which is adjustable here and it's the same principle where it has two hoops, when the collar is loose, it is open and when the collar is pulled tight it closes and this closes to fit the size of the dog's neck. It's called a no choke collar because it doesn't continue to decrease in size if the dog continues to pull.
