If you’ve just brought your new dog home for the first time, or are just looking for a replacement after the one they currently have has been torn or chewed up, a quality collar is an important decisions a dog owner can make.
Collars are great for holding identification tags in the event your canine companion gets lost, attaching a leash for better control during walks or runs, and for just overall comfort and style.
Larger dogs’ necks do need to be measured and sized correctly. If they happen wear one that is too small, it could be tight on their necks, causing extreme discomfort, trouble breathing, or other, more severe, health issues.
Your dog’s disposition while out and about may also be an important factor when trying to find the right one for them. If your dog is well behaved, a traditional leather or nylon collar will suffice, but if your dog tends to pull a lot, then a prong or harness style collar may be best.
I chose this particular set of products based on their quality, durability, look/style, proper fit, the number of reviews, as well as the best ratings on Amazon.
Classic Solid Color Large Breed Dog Collar
Perfect for everyday casual wear, it is simple, yet elegant enough to display your dog’s sense of style year round, while also built to last.
The collar is available in a wide variety of color options, so there is something for everyone’s taste.
It fits neck sizes from 18” to 26”, with a 1” width. As the collar isn’t able to stretch on its own, it’s best to leave about 2 finger widths of space between your dog’s neck and the collar to prevent injury and chewing.
Reflective Utility Dog Collar for Large Breeds
It’s equipped with a side-release buckle that can also be locked, ensuring the collar stays secure and fastened to prevent it from falling off by accident.
In order to help minimize heavy loads on the buckle, it features Low Load Technology by directly shifting it to a load ring and chrome D-Ring. The buckle itself is able to withstand up to 295 lbs. and 515 lbs. of pull directly and per the Low Load Technology respectively.
The highly reflective stitched woven webbing also provides for convenient visibility during those walks at night.
