Please take the time to research things a bit further before you advise others, espeicially when it has already been stated and discussed by so many in the previous posts. You never know who is going to take what you post for fact and end up suffering the consequences because of it.

Yorkies are prone to collapsed trachea.....no collars for any of my dogs and never used them and don't think they should ever be used on yorkies.....
