I do not use any collar at all. Harness with name tag plus micro-chipped.


A friend of mine had a very VERY small chiweenie and purchased one of these break-away collars. She got out of the fence and they found her 2 days later in the shrubbery. I will not get into detail but it wasn't pretty, for the collar failed. Yes it can happen and therefore, I choose not to use any collar.
