Affectionate, loyal, friendly, gentle – these admirable qualities are the reasons why dogs are considered as man’s best friends. Some breeds though can be intimidating as they are naturally ferocious and ownership is restricted in some areas. The aggressiveness that is specifically bred into these dogs is further developed through training as these ferocious dogs will be utilized as guard and protection dogs.
After domestication, dogs have become well loved and loyal companions of man for thousands of years. However, these animals have retained their predatory instinct and a stimulus can easily stir up the latent ferocious nature of the dog. It is not surprising if more than 4 million Americans get bitten by dogs every year. Many of the victims were attacked by their own dogs. It is therefore necessary to learn how approach a dog.
Dog owners, especially the children must know how to approach a dog. Dogs are territorial animals and food motivated as well. Dogs would instinctively guard its territory, its food and its toys. Once a threat to its territory is perceived, even a friendly and gentle dog would bare its teeth, growl and get ready to attack. People and especially children must not tease the dog by trying to get a toy or take away the food the dog is eating. A dog unaware that your intention in getting the bowl is to add more food can bite.
Children will always be enticed to pat a dog. The little ones cannot resist touching a sleeping pet. A startled dog would instinctively bite. Children must be cautioned not to startle a dog. To be safe it is necessary to approach the dog slowly and to make sure that the pet is aware that you are there.
The dog may tolerate the human family’s intrusion to its territory but it will certainly show an aggressive temperament to unfamiliar people. Dog lovers will always be enticed to touch a handsome dog. Remember, not all dogs are friendly and the particular dog you want to touch may react differently to an unfamiliar face . Get the owner’s permission to touch the dog. Slowly approach the dog but don’t stare directly as it can be misconstrued by the dog as a challenge. Approach slowly and extend a hand with the palm down or the fingers curled under to be sniffed by the dog. A dog that wants to be friends would sniff the offered hand.

These are beaded leather collars that are each a piece of art in their own right. Any leash or collar you may buy will be an original, you can be sure that your dog will be the only one with an original piece of art to wear.
The collars from martingale dog collars are either nylon or leather. The nylon collars are all made here in the United States and so are all of the raw materials for them. You can have your order shipped outside of the United States, so dog lovers everywhere can own the beautiful collars.
All of the nylon collars are slip collars that work as training collars for dogs that like to pull. They are more humane than prong collars or choker chains. They will not hurt your dog in any way and are great for walking a dog that pulls all of the time. If you prefer harnesses there is a good one called the easy walk harness. It is also made for training purposes and dogs you like to pull.
When dog owners are considering a collar or harness to keep their dog from pulling they never think of themselves. We dog owners who have dogs that pull know the pain of having your arm yanked and your back going out. Martingale slip collars can save us from that pain and make a walk with your dog more enjoyable.
Only top quality nylon is used for martingale dog collars. The hardware attached is guaranteed not to corrode or rust and the nylon is 100 percent guaranteed even if your dog chews it. One of the things I like most is that you can put them in the washing machine and have a fresh clean collar whenever you need it.
The martingale dog collars are sold on the internet only. Their prices are competitive with what they pet stores sell but the pet stores do not have such stylish collars. There is a sizing chart for the collars online so you do not have to worry about getting the wrong size for your dog. Get martingale dog collars if you want a gentle but fashionable training collar for your dog.
