Why Choose EzyDog Wide Dog Collars?
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use a wide dog collar?
A wide dog collar is crucial for safety and comfort. It spreads pressure across a larger area of the neck, reducing the risk of tracheal injury, especially for dogs that pull or have long, sensitive necks like Sighthounds.
Are wide collars only for large dogs?
Not at all. While they are excellent wide dog collars for large breeds, they are also essential for medium-sized dogs with slender necks, such as Whippets and Lurchers. The width is about protection, not just size.
What is the best wide collar for a Greyhound or Lurcher?
For Sighthounds, a martingale-style collar is often recommended. Our Checkmate Collar WIDE is the perfect choice, as its design prevents the dog from backing out and slipping the collar.
How wide are your extra wide collars?
Our \"WIDE\" designated collars, such as the Checkmate WIDE, are approximately 5cm (2 inches) wide, providing substantial surface area for pressure distribution and control.
Will a wide collar be too bulky for my dog?
Our designs are ergonomic. We use materials like soft neoprene that are thick and padded but remain lightweight and flexible, ensuring the wide collar for your dog is comfortable for all-day wear.
Can I get a waterproof wide dog collar?
Yes. The Neo Classic Collar WIDE is made from the same neoprene (wetsuit material) as our standard range. It is 100% waterproof, quick-drying, and ideal for dogs who love muddy walks.
Do you sell wide leather dog collars?
While our current 'WIDE' selection focuses on neoprene and nylon for comfort and durability, you can explore our Leather Dog Collars for a classic, robust option for larger breeds.
Is a wide collar a no-pull solution?
A wide collar provides better control, but to actively train a dog not to pull, we recommend a front-attaching harness. You can browse our dedicated No-Pull Dog Harnesses collection for specific training tools.
How do I measure for a wide dog collar?
Measure the thickest part of your dog's neck and add two fingers of room for comfort. Compare this measurement to the size chart on the product page. For martingale collars, you also need to measure the widest part of the head.
