1. Are martingale collars just for
greyhounds?
Even though martingale collars are the recommended
collar for greyhounds/sight hounds, they work "greyt"
for ALL Breeds. Martingale collars are also known
as the "humane choker" or "gentle choke" collar.
Because the choke effect is gentle to the neck but
effective, the martingale collar is great for training.
More & more other breeds are enjoying the comfort,
reliability, and durability of martingale collars.
If you would like to see some of the breeds that are
using martingale collars, check out the
Photo Gallery.
2. How do I clean or care for a Trendy
Hounds collar?
Make sure to remove ALL tags.
Place the martingale collar and/or leash in a laundry
bag, knotted pillow case, or lingerie bag. Wash
them on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry
them.
If your dog has scratched the collar causing some
loose threads, you can run a lighter very quickly over
the threads to singe back the snapped threads.
NEVER do this while the collar is on the dog and keep
your lighter moving when you do it!!!!
Regular Collar Inspection:
-
You should inspect your dog
collars frequently for signs of potential problems.
-
Even though every
Trendy Hounds collar is made with your
dog's safety in mind, chewing and scratching can
damage even the strongest of seams.
-
You should frequently
check the collar to make sure it has not
loosened up over time. If you're
