Which Type of Dog Collar is Best?

Many dog owners ask which type of dog collar is best for their pets.  While there are many different types of collars and leashes to choose from, many dog owners find that nylon collars work best because they come in all sizes and are also quite affordable.

One of the reasons that dog owners like nylon collars is that they are easily adjustable.  This means that the collar will fit just right, which is important as collars that are too lose or too tight may be dangerous to animals.  When adjusting a nylon collar, the rule of thumb is to insert two fingers between the dog's neck and collar.  If the two fingers fit, the collar shouldn't need loosening or tightening.

Another reason that dog owners prefer nylon collars is that they are inexpensive.  This is important as dog collars get lost, break or need to be swapped as dogs get bigger and owners need affordable options.
