Looking for the Best Dog Collar?

What's the best dog collar? The sheer number and types of collars can be a bit overwhelming. So, where do you start?

Finding the best collar depends on a number of factors specific to the needs of you and your dog. Just a few to consider are:

• The size of your dog - is your dog large or small?
• Does your dog have a body shape or medical condition that may require a special collar?
• Are you buying the collar for a special purpose like training or tracking?
• Do you prefer a specific type of material, and do you know what the advantages and disadvantages are of a collar made of that material?
• How important are aesthetics of the collar to you? Are you looking for a specific color or theme?

Beyond Function

Dog collars aren't just functional, they can be decorative and fun as well. A collar can let you express the personalities of both you and your dog. Show your pride in your college alma mater or your favorite sports team. If your dog's a "princess", why not outfit her with a fancy jeweled or designer collar? Is your dog a "bruiser" - how about a spiked collar? You'll find all kinds of collar styles here as inspiration.
