Welcome to Best Handmade Dog Collars of 2022
What are dog collars used for?
While this sounds like a redundant question, most peoples answers are different to what dog collars should be actually used for.
Safety
The primary purpose of a dog collar is not to walk your dog but to keep them safe. We will go through different types of dog collars with you so you can find the right option for you and your dog.
Comfort
Another important aspect should be the comfort of the collar. If your dog wears it's collar for most of the day or even if it is just for walks, you would want your dog to be comfortable in their handmade dog collar.
Soft materials and the right sizing for your dog will make the collar comfortable for every day use.
Durability
Being out and about on adventures a lot? Does your dog like to rough house with friends? Muddy puddles are the best?
We get you! The durability of the materials used for your dog collar is also an important aspect when choosing the right collar for your pooch.
What collars should not be used for
Using a dog collar to stop your dog from pulling should be avoided. No matter the collar, this can cause serious injuries to their neck. If your dog tends to pull, we recommend clipping them on a harness while teaching them to walk nicely on a lead.
