Dog Collars - by Mark Woodcock
As a dog owner you may or may not have given dog collars a thought, but did you know that there is an amazing variety of dog collars available today for your beloved dogs and puppies. There is everything from, behavior training to designer dog collars. If you are looking for a training collar for your puppy, there are dog collars that emit a quick spray of citronella into the dogs nose. Animal behavior specialists recommend citronella because it is harmless to your dog and only serves to distract. Typically, these types of products are inexpensive as well as citronella being widely available in easy refills. It tends to be a personal choice on what dog collar to choose. Whilst some dog owners may be opposed to the citronella spray collar, animal behavior experts tend to be opposed to shock dog collars that reduce barking in dogs and puppies. This is because a dog or puppies pain tolerance can be very difficult to gauge and varies widely. By using these type of collars, you may inadvertently cause severe pain to your puppy or dog, even though their reaction may not indicate it. It could be that you are just looking for a dog collar to make a fashion statement. The many designer collars avilable will be just what you are looking for. Even local pet stores are now stocking designer collars, some behavior experts believe in having your dog wear a designer collar to give them a sence of individuality!
