5 Reasons Why Dog Collars Are Not Good: Why Harnesses Are the Better Option for Your Furry Friend

4/18/2023

Dog collars have been the traditional choice for many pet owners when it comes to controlling and training their furry friends. However, there are several reasons why dog harnesses are a better choice than collars. In this blog, we will explore why dog collars are not good and why harnesses are better for your dog.
  1. Collars can cause neck injuries: When a dog pulls on a leash attached to a collar, the pressure on the neck can cause injury. Repeated pulling can lead to damage to the trachea, which can cause breathing problems. A harness distributes the pressure more evenly across the chest and back, reducing the risk of injury.
  2. Collars can cause behavioral problems: A dog that is constantly pulled by a collar can develop behavioral problems, such as anxiety and aggression. A harness can help prevent these issues by allowing the dog to feel more comfortable and secure during walks.
  3. Harnesses provide better control: A well-fitted harness gives the owner better control over the dog's movements. This is particularly important for larger or stronger dogs who may be able to pull away from their owner if they are only wearing a collar.
  4. Harnesses are safer: A harness provides additional safety features that a collar does not. For example, a harness with a front clip can prevent a dog from pulling and lunging, while a back clip harness can be used to safely restrain a dog in a car.
  5. Harnesses are more comfortable: A well-fitted harness is more comfortable for a dog than a collar. The pressure is distributed more evenly across the dog's body, which reduces the risk of injury and discomfort. Additionally, some dogs may have sensitive necks and find collars uncomfortable.
In conclusion, while dog collars have been a traditional choice for many pet owners, harnesses are a better option for several reasons. They are safer, more comfortable, and provide better control. If you are currently using a collar on your dog, consider switching to a harness for a more comfortable and safer experience for both you and your furry friend.

Pet Cot canopy for the beach

7/28/2017

We are publishing a common sense guide to pet ownership and one of the things we speak about is how dangerous it is for dogs to be outside during the summer. Specifically, being taken to the beach. If they don't have shade, water and are being monitored for signs of heat stroke, it can quickly turn into a bad situation.
I'm always thrilled when I run across a product that is additive, that can help prevent a bad situation. You've got to check out the K&H Pet Cot Canopy - brilliant! And no, we are not being paid to discuss this product. We just believe its an awesome idea that will most likely keep dogs more comfortable and possibly save a few lives.
Keep your four-legged companions safe and Keep Wagging everyone!
