The choke collar is generally used in dog training clubs. They are not suitable for everyday use or ethical use. Finally, there is the electric collar which is another form of barbarism that is strongly discouraged. It is used solely to control the animal through pain and fear, which is absolutely unnecessary and counterproductive.

The limits of the tethering collar

Each existing type of collar naturally has its advantages and disadvantages. In terms of weak points, nylon collars are not spared. It is a collar design that can in the long run irritate the skin and alter the dog's coat. They end up losing their appearance and therefore their aesthetics over time since the fabric tends to fray. As for plastic collars, they are generally of poor quality and have a very short life span. This is not so far from chokers whose chains end up rusting because of the poor quality. As far as the light collar is concerned, its real weak point is its fragility. This means that if the fragility of the collar is questioned, directly its duration of use is also questioned.
