Learn About Leopard Print Dog Collars

By Jocelyn Davidson


Dog collars are wrapped on canines to serve different functions. The styles and designs in them make them suitable for different environments and functions. Leopard print dog collars are imprinted with leopard coat marks to make them unique and outstanding. Their unique nature and prints make them easy to notice even in a wide collection.

Collars serve many reasons and every dog owner uses them for their own personal needs. The most general function however is, restraining dogs from going into places they should not. When used for this purpose, the band is attached to a leash for the owner to hold. The leash also prevents the animal from jumping on people while moving around. Most people use bands for this reason when walking their animals.

Ribbons are also a major way of identifying a canine among others. The difference in shapes, colors, and sizes of collars make it easy to identify a canine. Many dogs can be found in a veterinary clinic, making it necessary for owners to have a way of identifying their own animal. Because of lack of identification ribbons, one can carry home the wrong dog.

Besides using the band itself to identify a canine, some people place additional data on the band. Some of the most commonly added information include contact information such as telephone numbers, address, and name of the owner. The registration number, age, breed, and other information about the canine may also be printed on a paper and attached on the band. Such information is important in locating the owner of a lost dog.

Dogs taken to veterinary doctors vary in their medical requirements and are many too. The doctors need a way of knowing the kind of medication to provide to which animal. Mismatched prescriptions or treatment can be given if there is no way of identifying the dog and the medical attention required. This is where bands become vital. They hold such important medical information. Tags printed with the information are placed around the neck on a collar.

Trainers make use of collars while training canines. Mostly head halters are the common type of band used for training. Head halters help in focusing the attention of a dog on its trainer. The head of the canine is restrained, preventing it from losing focus and only to concentrate on the trainer. This way, training sessions can be held for several hours. Head halters are preferred because they make the training exercise progress faster and more effectively.

Even though head halters provide a better means of training, the trainer must not leave them on after training sessions. This is due to the fact that they are uncomfortable to the dogs. Today, there has been a lot of changes in these products to a point where initial functions for which some of them were meant are being ignored. For example, spiked collars are no longer considered as a protective gear but, more as fashion items on big breeds.

Initially spiked bands were meant for protecting the neck of dogs against bites from other animals such as wolves and leopards, but that has changed. Other kinds of bands in use today include choke, flotation, lighted, break away, and flea ribbons among others. They serve different functions.
