Spiked Dog Collar
A spiked dog collar can be a great fashion statement on your dog.
As more owners are looking for a great fashion statement for their dogs, that are not going to cost an arm and a leg, the spiked dog collar is making a definate come back!
A black spiked dog collar was more popular at one time, but now it seems that it’s the pink spiked collar that is selling most with a lot of the major suppliers.
To be honest a spiked dog collar is still often only chosen by those that want to give the impression of a ‘bad boy’ or ‘bad girl’ image. This type of image portrayal for your dog is steadily increasing in popularity, thus an increase in spiked dog collars sales is to be expected.
The spiked dog collar is certainly becoming a very popular type of collar, and if you are thinking about a unique collar for your dog, but don’t want to spend a lot of money on a designer dog collar, why not take a look at a spiked dog collar?
Gone are the days when these were only available in black leather. They come in various colors now, and as mentioned above, the pink spiked collars are outselling the black spiked collars – you could go for tan, brown or even white for your spiked dog collar. These collars make a statement for sure. Whatever color collar you choose you will see that the contrast of this and the color of the spikes looks really good.
One thing that you do need to be aware of though with spiked dog collars, is the safety issue. You need to ensure that your dog’s not going to cause any injury to himself when he scratches and hits the spikes. There are some collars out there which look pretty lethal, and I would think that your pet could very easily end up hurting himself scratching with one of these collars on. You will also need to look carefully at how sharp and long the spikes are from your safety point of view. If you suddenly have to grab hold of your dogs collar if any emergency should occur, you don’t want to be stabbing yourself with extra sharp spikes.
It’s always going to be a safer option to go for the shorter spiked collar styles – nothing that is going to be dangeous for you (or anyone else) or your dog.
Remember that it’s not just the owners of the large dog breeds like pitbulls and rottweilers that are buying spiked dog collars, many of the smaller dog owners are going for the spiked look for their pets.
So if a spiked dog collar takes your fancy, why not buy one for your pet? You will find that you will be able to locate one that matches to both your personality and that of your dog.
