No matter where your corgi goes, he should have a corgi dog collar just right for him. Dog collars can be found almost anywhere. Although they come in different styles and colors but are all used for two things: (1) to help a lost dog or (2) to keep your corgi on a leash. Depending on you and your corgi’s needs, the corgi dog collar will be different.

There is a large selection of dog collars, ranging cost from $5 to millions of dollars (for example, there are exquisite collars loaded with diamonds and other gems). Some collars, like the metal chain type, would be a great one for dogs who love to chew when they get bored. However, be careful not to let your corgi develop the bad habit of chewing collars. We have one corgi who had to be trained not to chew the collar worn by another corgi. In addition to being an expensive habit (like chewing shoes), collar-chewing can be bad for your corgi’s teeth.

A collar with a buckle is a common collar that may come in cloth or a leather in different colors. It can be adjusted to fit your corgi quickly and easily. Your may even be able to put your dog’s name on the collar, which would help if you have two or more dogs that look alike. However, be careful of the material that you use. One of our corgis can’t wear leather collars because he develops a skin rash from it.

Buckle collars are useful because they are difficult for your corgi to remove by himself unless attached too loose to begin with. Other collars can be pulled into pieces to be taken off, and some have special devices on them to make taking off the as easy as possible.

Another type of collar good used to keep a full-of-energy dog that is strong under control is the prong collar. The collar will keep the dog from pulling hard or the dog will be a bit stiff in the neck. The prong collar has these metal prongs that are slanted to not harm the dog, but to only help keep the dog under control. I have never encountered a corgi that required this type of collar. While energetic, they are eager to please and respond very well to your tone of voice. If you have a large aggressive breed, such as a pit bull or rottweiler, perhaps the prong collar is something to consider… but not for your corgi.

No matter what collar you pick, it will help keep your dog safer, particularly if it has identification and contact information where you can be reached in case your corgi gets lost, someone finds it, and needs a way to contact you. The corgi dog collar is the most important thing your corgi should wear.
