What is a martingale collar?
A martingale collar is a unique type of dog collar designed to provide more security without choking your dog. It's particularly useful for dogs whose heads and necks have similar widths, like sighthounds, as it prevents them from slipping out of their collars. The collar tightens when the dog pulls, but it only tightens to a certain point, making sure that it doesn't choke the dog. A martingale collar should sit snugly on the dog's neck but not too tight.
How to fit a martingale collar?
- Loosen the Collar: Start by loosening the collar so you can slip it over your dog's head.
- Position It: Place the collar high on your dog's neck, right behind the ears. This is the most effective position for control and training.
- Adjust the Fit: Adjust the collar so that when it is relaxed, you can fit two fingers comfortably between the collar and your dog's neck.
- Check the Tightening: When the collar tightens (as it would when the dog pulls), it should still have some slack but should not be so loose that the dog can slip out or so tight that it chokes the dog. The two sliders of the small loop should never touch each other.
