If you teach them how to heel properly they wont pull the leash and collar... a lot of people i have noticed could care less if their dog knows how to heel thus the dog pulls on the leash and i guess trachea problems.....i just chose to aleviate the problem by obedience training, and it makes a world of difference.
I used
rolled leather collars that DONT BREAK or slip over their heads because they are custom fitted.
I also use Harnesses because i want to dress up my boys sometimes. SO when my boys have on harnesses they also have on collars for identification...
