[nagdu] Collars was RE: GDB Time Out

[Nicole Torcolini via nagdu]

That's about what I thought. Some people think that I keep the collar that
Lexia wears all of the time too tight. I can still slide my fingers under
it, but it is tight enough that she can not easily slide out of it. I don't
usually attach the leash to it when she is working as she also wears her
choke chain collar for work, but she wears the cloth  collar around the
house, and I need to know that she can't just slip out of it.

Nicole,
My dogs, with the exception of Mill-e, where a partial check or martingale.
It is all cloth- not cloth and chain.  I can slide 2 fingers under the
collar just fine and neither dog seems uncomfortable.
