Great news! Charlie went back in his crate on his own this morning to make his bed and chill out for a little bit. 🤗👍

With the potential harm that can come to the trachea on this breed, if you need to have ID on them, you might consider a harness instead. We would never put a collar on either of our girls for any reason.

As long as there is not pulling on the collar or hooking a leash to it just wearing a collar with not effect the trachea at all. My moms yorkie and my yorkie both who had and have CT wear collars and there is no issues. My other two wear collars and don't have CT. Collars are not necessarily the cause of CT weak trachea cartilage is.

I'm going to be sure to so my research so that i make an informed decision this time around. Right now, he is still collarless. I do want him to wear immediate identification, so I'll need to make sure we can safely do this.

Charlie is 6 years old and has wore a collar his entire life 24/7 with only one incident like this. As far as i am aware he does not have CT.

You might want to do this:

or a harness....

All of mine are microchipped....I do usually collar (with tags) them when I take them out.

Thank you. 😊

Break-away collars are a great solution for you perhaps !

I do have mine chipped and in collars 24hrs a day...and just would not be comfortable doing anything else in terms of safety (if they were to be lost...).
