Collars on or off?

hello,Smile

Just wondering, when do you put the collars on your dogs?

all the time? when they go out? when u feel like to? are the collars off when they're at home?

etc

Re: [RealityDreamer] Collars on or off?

RD,

Collars are only on when u needed it to be on otherwise it should be off. The only exception is when we want to get the dog to get used to a correction collar for some time before the actual adminitering of correction so that he will not associate the collar to being corrected. However, I do not ask anyone to do any correction before motivationally train any dog until the dog fully understood a cue word.

Choke chain should not be put on unguarded as accidents can happen in many unthinkable ways.

HISmile

I put on the collar for Ladee when I am grooming her...it is sort of a drill to let her know to be good...and when I bring her out...it works for her as she interprets the collar as a time to be at her best behaviorSmile...at other times, she is free and off collar...she actually hates Madthe collar and can't leave it on for a long time in her... otherwise she'll walk funny....Laugh

I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.

Re: [RealityDreamer, ladee_m] Collars on or off?

kinki loves her collar so much that she can't leave it behind her.

when i bring her back from walk, she will not let me to take off the collar.

and when is time to take a bath, i face great problem to get the collar off. after i manage to get it off her neck, she'll hold the collar using her mouth during the whole bathing process.

really cannot separate kinki from her beloved collar.

Re: [RealityDreamer] Collars on or off?

I only put collar on if I need to take him for a walk as kaisu of the dog getting rash or the coat/fur growth non uniform but may be harder for lead training as not use to having leash around his neck. ...ym

Re: [RealityDreamer] Collars on or off?

Smilehi,

for my lab the collar will be on when she's going out while for teddy it's on 24 hours a day coz he loves his collars...i only remove it when he's bathing. it has become his ID tag...he'' go mad without his collar so i'll change his collar every week.....i love the bell...better to know where is he Smile

well, to be honest, it has not damaged his fur in any ways.....it's still as fluffl even around the neck as long as the collar is not too tight Smile

Re: [RealityDreamer] Collars on or off?

btw, i think every doggie should have their ID tag on always, in case they just ran out from the house.

is easier for ppl to contact their owner.

Collar is on all the time except at night, when Snoopy goes to sleep in her cage. Tongue

Re: [RealityDreamer] Collars on or off?

Collar always on Bean Boy since day one so to let him get USED TO the collar on his neck, and also i could hear the "long-long......"Tongue

Will only put collar on when I walk him out. But He and Max both love collars, especially when i put the leather collar, the choke chain, and the anti-ticks collar on them at the same time... they will show me their happy faces and go for a "parade"~SlySlySly They know what "leng chai" means and the like the "cling-clong" sounds.... PARADE to show the neighboring dogsCool
