Collars and Leads



Yes there are loads out there for your pooch and me personally I like a half choke one they come in lots of pretty colours now and is good for that chink on it if they pull. Remember to check collar every month and extend it for your growing Dane



If you don’t like these there are leather ones out there,
                                  This is personal to me do remember this and 
you may like or have used them in the past that’s good.
               but don’t use a full nylon one as it can snap, as they are flimsy on Danes, as they are not designed for the bigger breed really




If you put in some training for you and the dog it will help having the right collar and lead on so they don’t pull you over.




At the 6-month stage they will test the boundaries and again at 9 months this is when a dogmatic comes in very handy.  It is very much like a bridle for a horse and used in the exact same way.  They are not cruel and yes the dog can still bite it isn’t a muzzle. Its and aid for a dog that pulls a lot and can topple you over as these are not wee dogs 


Yes even Al can walk two dogs on a dogmatic and they walk nice once they realise they wont be released from it as they don’t like it in the beginning. They learn very quickly dogmatic on and then walkies so they comply.

For a growing Dane frequent the pound shops till they are at least 6 months and then splash out on collars.

Dogmatic from 6 months because of the jaw area, because it is still growing.

Extendable leads do not ever ever buy one even the one designed for the larger breed it will snap as they will rear up and take off or worse you release to the length of it and your Dane goes into the road and is killed and this isn’t to scare you it does happen as these things are dangerous and should be banned.
I will never recommend them.
