Is A Dog Harness Better Than A Collar?

by guestpost on May 19, 2009

A dog collar is easy to put on and take off. Why then bother with a dog harness which involves strapping a complicated device around a dog’s fore legs and chest? There are two main reasons why a dog harness is better than a dog collar. Firstly, when a dog pulls excessively on a collar it is in danger of choking itself and also of damaging the neck muscles, both of which can be serious. Secondly, since the leash is attached to the dog’s back and not to the neck, controlling a dog on a dog harness is much easier than controlling one wearing a collar.
