I used the example of my pup in my home because that's where he uses it all of the time. He hasn't gotten out yet. (edited to add he hasn't gotten out yet with his breakaway on, he's gotten out with a reg dog collar on) In theory, yes it would fall off if he got caught in something. I would much rather his trachea be safe. But, out door cats wear these collars successfully everyday and some back home with them still on. I think the odds of a cat getting caught in something are higher than a dog since they climb and are up in trees, etc. The way I see it, the odds of him being returned within he hour of getting out are higher with a collar on. He got out once while in the care on an old roommate, and he was found by a neighbor within 30 mins. Not much room for him to be getting in trouble if you ask me. Oh, and he got out in the middle of the day when most people are working. I just feel like the odds are in my favor.
