mu puppy hates his collar!

Max hates his collar! He is constantly scratching at it.
Anything I can do to help him get used to it? I feel like he is going to scratch his head off!

Re: mu puppy hates his collar!

If I may pimp out my favorite collar site for a minute, we got Lilly a Smoothie collar from K9Closet - it's the softest thing I've ever felt! She was scratching at her neck to the point where it was red and irrirated. We bought her a Smoothie and she has no problem wearing it. (we also bought her a ton of other colars, but I have a mild problem Chat Icon )

Here's the website K9Closet Click on the first heart and then go to the Smoothie collection. It was a lifesaver when we first got Lilly and she wasn't used to wearing a collar.

It took Katie a while to get used to it when she was a pup. Now it only comes off for bathtime.

Re: mu puppy hates his collar!

Is your pup a boxer? If so maybe get a lined collar. Boxers are known to have skin sensitivities, so that may be part of the issue. Chat Icon

Re: mu puppy hates his collar!

Is it maybe too tight?
Or, do you have his tags on it?

Lola didn't like her tags at first - so I spent a few days just getting her used to the collar, and then added the tags later - she still scratched at them for a few days, but once she got used to them, she was fine.

Now she gets mad when we take it off for any reason !!

We just got a puppy (he will be 5 months tomorow). He hated his collar, but we kept it on him and within a few days he got used to it! Good Luck!
