Which Is Better -- A Collar Or A Harness?


Many dog owners let their pets wear both a collar and harness during walks because they think it’s much safer and allows them to have better control over their dogs. If you are doing this, where you do attach the leash? Is it on the collar or harness?


If you attach the leash to the collar, dogs that tend to pull and lunge during walks can possibly end up choking and injuring their neck tissues as the collar exerts undue pressure as dogs pull. Unfortunately, this is one reason why dog owners continue to let their dogs attach a leash to the collar instead of the harness. They think that their pets will stop lunging and pulling when they feel the collar tighten and cause pain on their neck. But most dogs react to the pain and discomfort by pulling away even more as a means to escape from the pressure on their neck.
