QuestionWe have a wonderful 2 yr old Basset hound, but cloth/nylon collars that are fitted properly rub her neck skin raw, and loose collars come off. We've been using a chain collar, but everyone we see thinks we're horrible. Is there a collar made for dogs with a lot of neck wattle?
AnswerHi Theresa,
My Dudley has this same problem. :) I've used a chain collar as well...hooking the tag around both O rings so that the chain doesn't slip. I've also tied his tags in the knot of a bandana. Both of these solutions seemed to have solved the problem along with using a harness on walks rather than a collar. Hope that helps!
BTW - I've tried almost every type of store collar out there...leather, nylon, cotton...and had the same problem as you're having. Fitted makes the neck raw and loose comes off. :( I've yet to find anything in a store that works aside from the chain collar.
