Dog collar

A dog collar is a piece of material put around the neck of a dog. A collar may be used for control, identification, fashion, or other purposes. Identification tags and medical information are often placed on dog collars. Collars are also useful for controlling a dog manually, as they provide a handle for grabbing. Collars are often used in conjunction with a leash, and a common alternative to a dog collar is a dog harness. Dog collars are the most common form of directing and teaching dogs.

Dog collar is also an informal term for the clerical collar used by Anglican vicars and other clergy.

Basic collars

  • Buckle collars, also called flat collars, are usually made of nylon webbing or leather (less common materials can include polyester, hemp, or metal) with a buckle similar to a belt buckle, or a quick-release buckle, either of which holds the collar loosely around the dog's neck. Identification is commonly attached to such a collar; it also comes with a loop to which a leash can be fastened. This is the most standard collar for dogs. A flat collar should fit comfortably tight on your dog's neck. It should not be so tight as to choke your dog nor so loose that they can slip out of it. The rule of thumb says you should be able to get two fingers underneath the collar.

    Dog Collar

    by: Tilt

    With her hair chopped off all different lengths
    And her Rhinestone studded collar
    She's acting a little mean right now
    She just quit smoking non-filters
    She's had it! She's had it!
    Maybe she'll go to Chico State
    Maybe she'll go to Laney
    Maybe she'll go to UC - No!
    What is she gonna do,
    what is she gonna do with her life?
    Her stingray bike is covered with all kinds of weird-ass stickers
    She don't care about losing weight to look like no stick-figure
    She's had it! She's had it!
    Maybe she'll start a life of crime
    Maybe she'll go to Europe
    Maybe she'll start a punk band - Why?!
    What is she gonna do,
    what is she gonna do with her life?
    Maybe she'll be a journalist
    Maybe she'll be a junkie
    Maybe she'll make the best-dressed list
    What is she gonna do,
    What is she gonna do,
