Dog Health Questions: What type of training collar should I get?

When I was at dog training today, i used her regular collar, and she slipped out of it a few times. The trainer recommended a brand of training collar starting with a M, and i cant seem to remember the name. It was a flat training collar that has a chain it connects to in the back, that connects to your leash. Anyone know what brand this is or what type of collar i should get?

Recommended Answer:
Martingale - they're used for breeds like greyhounds, whippets, salukis, etc.; breeds that have narrow heads so its easy to slip out of collars. It would be a good choice for training - all pet stores carry them.

Are Electronic Shock Collars Great Dog Training Devices?

• The collar is called a Martingale collar. It is a wonderful collar for sight hounds or dogs whose necks are larger than their heads (ie greyhounds). I recommend these collars to anyone because they are easy to use, gentle, and your dog can't slip out of them if properly fit.
  There are two different kinds, the ones with the chain, and the ones with the material or leather depending on the type of collar you get. They are sold at PetSmart, PetCo. and a few other stores.
  My shepherd mix has to wear one, and he does great. His is a blue canvas one from Lupine. They guarantee their collars, harnesses, leashes, etc. even through chewing. I recommend a martingale from them.

  You can make your own. All the metal parts to it you can get on eBay from the seller zjaw24w
  And it's basically just polypropylene webbing with grosgrain ribbon on top.
  I find the £14.99 price a bit high, i have a sewing machine so make my own now exactly the same, same hardware used in those collars and webbing just cheaper because i make it myself.


• Martingale is the name. If you're still not sure, call or ask the trainer when you can.
