Please, help
collars are messing my maltese and poodle hair, any kind of collar do you think is better for my dogs hair? (dogs need collars for id tag incase of missing) I only put in the collars for my dogs when I take them outside but why my maltese and poodle doesn't look godd in collars, so let me know if you have a good collar for your maltese and toy poodle.
Thanks for all responding.
good day!

yes, but that doesn't always help when you are required to have them licensed and vaccinated
have you tried looking at some of the akc dog shows
i'm sure they have small cute ones(that will also hold tags for your small breeds

Actually the micro chip only works if you have a scanner. It doesn't track the dog it simply identifies it. Which I think all dogs should be micro chipped. My shepherd was stolen and gone for 9 months. I got him back because he was brought to a vet that had one of my flyers so they scanned him. :-)
I suggest a nylon rope type collar. It's not actually a rope but it's round. They only come in choke collars but you can use the tag holder to hold the two ends together. I have a Shih-Tzu so understand your problem. Also keep it on very loose. Not loose enough to fall off but where you can get a few fingers in there. Less matting that way.

There is a collar that is called a fur saver. It is designed and used for that problem. I have seen the more on larger dogs.. but you could look for one for you little dog. All my dogs have fur savers on and it doesn't mess up their hair. They can pe purchased online or at petstores. Many police dogs use them.

If you don't want a collar, you could always get an id chip so that you know EXACTLY where they are and can track them down within seconds

Why don't you just get one of the little show leads that is a collar and leash in one. You just slip it over the neck and go. It is a slip lead so the can't back out of it.

I know what you mean.
Try a step in harness. it also will not cause pressure against the trachea, thus, if the dog is a puller, it eliminates possibility of tracheal damage.
