Remember when you picked a dog collar based on size and color? Not any more!

A booming pet accessories market means consumers now have choices galore when it comes to choosing the right collar for their dogs. Whether you want to train your dog or make a fashion statement, there’s a dog collar out there to suit your pet’s needs.

Consider the Breed

The first thing you should do when choosing a dog collar is consider the breed of your dog. As a general rule of thumb, larger breeds of dogs require sturdier, stronger collars while smaller breeds of dogs look best in daintier collars.

Want to follow the fashion trends? Great! Just make sure that your choice works for your dog. Jeweled collars are very popular these days and look great on smaller breeds, but can your burly Saint Bernard pull it off? Studded collars are also trendy, but might look heavy on your Toy Poodle.

For Safety’s Sake

Make sure the dog collar you choose is safe for your pet. Buckle collars, break-away collars, and quick-release collars are all designed with your dog’s safety in mind. It’s important that the collar fit properly as well. A safe and well fitting dog collar should have, at least, a two-finger width between the collar and the dog’s neck.

Training Collars

Injury-causing choke chains and slip collars have been replaced with safer alternatives. An electronic collar, sometimes called a shock collar or a remote collar, is designed to correct your dog’s behavior by delivering a safe electrical stimulus. Prong collars are also available for training purposes.

Before you purchase your collar, be sure to shop around! Many online retailers have information and articles regarding trends and pricing. It’s worth doing a little research to ensure you buy a dog collar that will fit your pet’s needs.
