I never put the noose around the neck either. I seldom use the noose at all, I have very good hands and the dog seldom will try to jump off the grooming talbe.
When I am not sure about the dog, I put the noose in front of the shoulder on one side and put it behind the front leg on the other side of the dog. It will restrain the dog without causing any worry about pressing on the throat.
Never ever leave a dog unattended on a grooming table. If you can't reach something you need, scoop up the dog and hang onto it. |
