You may feel like a dog collar is just a dog collar, but there are actually many different styles to choose from.

The basic collar is perfect for everyday wear. For dogs that are well trained, they are also great to use when going for a walk. Just make sure you choose the width and size that is right for your breed.

If your dog has trouble pulling when you’re on your walk, consider a harness instead. Not only does this collar go around the neck, it also tucks behind your dog’s front legs. It provides you with more control during your walk.

Want to train your dog not to pull without using a harness? Slip chains and metal prong collars can help. By tugging quickly, you can create an uncomfortable experience that causes your dog to stop pulling on the leash.
