Dog Harness vs Collar
24th Jul 2023
When it comes to walking your dog, choosing between a harness or collar can be a tough decision. Both have their pros and cons, and ultimately, the best choice depends on your dog's individual needs and behavior.
Dog Harness Pros:
- Provides better control and reduces pulling on walks
- Distributes pressure evenly across the chest and back, reducing strain on the neck
- Great for dogs with respiratory issues or neck injuries
- Can be used as a safety restraint in the car
Dog Harness Cons:
- Can be more difficult to put on and take off
- Some dogs may not like the feeling of a harness and may resist wearing it
Dog Collar Pros:
- Easier to put on and take off
- Great for identification purposes
- Can be a more affordable option
Dog Collar Cons:
- Can cause strain on the neck if the dog pulls
- May not provide enough control for larger or stronger dogs
- Not recommended for dogs with respiratory issues or neck injuries
As you can see, both a harness and collar have their advantages and disadvantages. It's important to consider your dog's needs before choosing.
