| Question about collars I bought a nylon collar for my new yorkie (he's 4 months old now) and everytime i put it on him he scratches it. So I bought a different collar, it is a bit lighter and it clips together instead of a buckle. But he still seems to scratch. Is it because it really itches or does he not like it? When the collar is off he's fine. |

| It's probably just the collar. I'm sure he's fine. He will get used to the collar in no time. Both of mine wear collars for their tags, but never attach the leash to their collar. When they need to go out on a leash, I put a harness on them in addition to the collar and attach a leash to the harness. |

| It sounds like he just has to get used to wearing a collar
