The "Adjustable" Snap-Around Training Collar is different from other training collars in that it is placed around the dogs neck as opposed to being fitted over the head like other training products (2 ring training collars).
It has one straight tongue snap, one stationary ring, and one floating ring. Black hard nylon adjustable slip lock buckle and keeper fully adjusts to fit any size dog.
This collar is in a wider width than our original Snap-Around Training Collar for those who desire a wider collar. Being adjustable, it is IDEAL for that GROWING PUP!
They can be washed in lukewarm water and detergent.
Follow the instructions below to properly use the Adjustable Snap-Around Training Collar.
This type of collar has a snap on one end, a floating or loose ring, and a stationary ring on the other end. The snap is attached to the floating ring to be used as a training collar, and the lead is attached to the stationary ring; thus, this collar allows a better fit, and stays high up on the neck behind the ears. With proper fitting this collar should not slide down the neck, but stay in this position giving the handler better control for more effective teaching. Do not leave the collar in training position (snap attached to floating ring) on dog when not in training.
This type of collar is very humane simply because of where it sits on the dogs neck, above the trachea. Very little effort is needed to use the Adjustable Snap-Around Training Collar. We do not promote any type of training that uses harsh pulling or jerking the dog at any time. Only a slight movement of the wrist is all that is needed to get the dogs attention back on you.
The way we measure the finished product after hand making the Adjustable Snap-Around Training Collar is by laying the collar flat- straight out- with the stationary ring on the left side, and the snap on the right side. Measure from where the fabric starts on the stationary ring side all the way to the tip of the snap on the other end. We include the fabric and snap only. The stationary ring is not included in the measurement.
Determine your dog's size and then follow the way we measure the finished product above to adjust the collar to the proper size.
When measuring your dog for an Adjustable Snap-Around Training Collar, place your dog in a standing position. Measure under the chin, around the neck, and then up behind the ears. You want a Snug fit, but not choking. Add an extra ½" for smooth coated dogs, or 1" for long coated dogs to the measurement obtained. This ½" - 1" will give the necessary check with less effort, and will help the collar stay in place.
The images below demonstrate the proper way to measure your pet.
