Information About NFL Team Dog Collars

By Rosella Campbell


Dog collars as suggested in the name refer to strands of material placed around dogs in the neck region. Currently, these articles are being used for other uses apart from the ones they were utilized for originally. NFL team dog collars are a type of advertisement used by NFL fans mostly. They also serve other functions besides advertisement including holding medical information, controlling, and identification. The varying user needs have made them to be made in different forms.

Types of dog collars are numerous and the major ones include chain slip, metal prong, martingale, stud, break-away, oilcloth, spiked, reflective, and fur saver collars. Chain slip bands are often referred to as choke chains. They primarily are used for training purposes. These items should not be used for any other purposes besides training because they can injure the canine on the neck. Proper knowledge on how to use a choke chain is required before one decides to buy it.

Metal prong ribbons are another type of collar used mainly for training dogs especially those that are strong and stubborn. They also get referred to as pinch chains and are effective at correcting dogs during training. Prior knowledge on how to use them is also required before buying them. Also, they must never be left on the dog when it is not being attended to. This is because they are a major source of strangulation hazard.

Martingale ribbons also go by other names such as greyhound or slip collars. They are designed for preventing dogs from slipping out of the collar when attached to a leash. They are most suitable for dogs that have bigger necks and smaller heads. They comprise of two loops, one small and one bigger. The small loop acts as a regulation mechanism by tightening the bigger loop when the collar is pulled.

Strangulation of the animal is prevented by incorporation of a stopping mechanism which prevents the loop of the collar from closing too tightly. Although other materials can be used, nylon is the commonest of them all. There are different designs and colors of martingale ribbons. Even though they can be used on other breeds, they do best on sighthounds. Strangulation is avoidable through proper adjustment of the collar.

Lighted ribbons also called dog light or collar light incorporate diodes to make dogs easily visible in darkness. Animals with lighted bands can be spotted from far by the owners and motorists hence preventing possible accidents. The diodes derive power from a single cell or a set of batteries. AAA and lithium coin cells are the most commonly used power sources. Diodes on these products are not for helping the canine to see in darkness.

NFL team collars are produced from various materials. Plastics, leather, nylon, and cotton are among the most commonly materials. The strength in these materials allows the products to be used on dogs of different sizes. Orders for custom-made products can also be placed to manufacturers. Prices are dependent on many factors like the material a commodity is manufactured from, its design and the size.

These products can be acquired from any store that stocks related products worldwide. Online sellers are also available for people to make orders through the internet. Authenticity of the online seller must be confirmed before making payments.
