Has anyone ever heard of or tried break away collars for dogs? I bought one for my Aussie x last year and I think they are great. She had a few incidents with getting caught on the rug by her collar and just to be safe I got her a collar which would break away if this ocurred again....which it has'nt. My mother recently bought one after concerns of leaving a collar on her Poodle while he was in his crate....she wanted him to have a collar on just in case he escaped the yard..which he has on several ocassions but was worried about him getting caught and choking himself while in the crate.
Anyway, I think they are a wonderful invention and wondered if anyone else has tried them?

I haven't personally tried them, but I do know that my friend uses one with her huskyX. She was concerned when she noticed that her dog kept rubbing/walking against the chain link fence to scratch his shoulders and the sides of his body when he was blowing coat.

I would be interested in something like this. What exactly are they?? I took the collars off both my Huskies a few days ago. They were playfighting and Bailey's mouth got caught in Brute's collar. I was in a panic trying to free her and Brute kept moving around in confusion. Luckily she freed herself and wasn't hurt. I want to keep identification on my dogs in case they get out but I am afraid something like that would happen again. Any suggestions? Would a breakaway collar be the answer?

Kerriesue: The collars snap together and have a ring on each side....when the collars are pulled on they unsnap unless the rings are held together...this way they can still be used with a leash without unsnaping. The only problem would be if someone grabbed your dog by the collar (without holding the rings together) and the dog pulled it would unsnap.
Here is the link if you want to read more about them: http://www.breakawaycollar.com/
