Debbi Smith did you not read THOUSANDS of dogs choke from tags. Sorry you find that ridiculous (which by the way you spelled wrong).

Debbi Smith ok. Hopefully it saves at least one dog. And again you act more like 13 than someone in their 60s.

Debbi Smith another simple Google search. When one dog’s jaw or paw becomes entangled in another dog's collar, it can create a stressful situation for both animals. Immediate action is necessary to prevent injury. To address the situation, try to stabilize the dogs to prevent further pulling. If possible, use the quick-release buckle on the collar or carefully cut the collar to free the entangled dog.How to Prevent EntanglementDogs often use their mouths and paws during play, which increases the risk of getting caught in a collar. This can lead to restricted breathing or distress as the animals struggle to separate.Consider these safety measures to protect pets:Remove collars during play: Removing collars before dogs interact or wrestle is the most effective way to prevent entanglement.Use breakaway collars: These collars are designed to snap open under high pressure, allowing a trapped dog to break free automatically.Switch to a harness: Using a chest harness instead of a collar can reduce the risk of something getting caught during social interactions.Ensure proper collar fit: If collars are necessary, ensure they are fitted snugly. Generally, a gap of about two fingers between the collar and the neck is recommended.Limit dangling accessories: Removing hanging ID tags or choosing flat-plate tags reduces the chances of accessories getting snagged on crates or other collars.

Debbi Smith from a simple Google search. +5 Dangling dog tags are a major safety hazard. They can easily get stuck on fences, crates, or even another dog's jaw. When this happens, the dog panics and twists, causing the collar to tighten and choke them. Thousands of dogs die from this every year.

Debbi Smith I saw it first hand at a vet clinic. The dog they had in a chain link kennel got his tag stuck and almost choked to death. To each their own. My dogs will not wear collars. All it takes is 1 time for 1 to choke so im glad you have never had it happen. But that doesn't mean it cant and wont happen. And your laughing at my comment is very juvenile for a 60 something year old just saying. Look it up on the internet it can and does happen.

Ker Bear I have multiple large dogs. I'm in my 60's, I have had 10 plus dogs so far. All my friends have had dog throughout the years. I have dogs, have rescued, fostered and foster failed. I have relationships with rescues. All the dogs have collars and tags. This has never happened. SMH.

Debbi Smith my dogs dont wear collars they can be a choking hazard. They can get caught on fences or they can choke each other while playing if you have multiple dogs.

He has been escaping his sitters homes🥹 he doesn’t do good in crates or outside beside his own home. He will be traveling with us from now on. 🫶 thank you all so much for watching Cody!
