One question about showing dogs, though. I notice they're all wearing collars and leashes. If collars are so dangerous for toy breeds' tracheas, why are they shown this way? I know a harness would interfere with showing the beautiful coat, but if the show is for the betterment of the breed, wouldn't the safety of the dogs come first? Just wondering...
Good question. The proper placement of a show lead is high up. under the ears. Trachea would not be stressed at this placement
