What is The Best Dog Collar For a Spoodle?
Spoodles. A mix between a Poodle and Cocker Spaniel, are a much loved dog cross-breed, not just in Australia, but across the globe, due to their friendly demeanour, fluffy appearance, and playful nature.
One of the most appealing features of the Spoodle breed is their hypoallergenic coat, which is perfect for allergy sufferers. Furthermore, they don't shed, so you won't need to constantly vacuum and brush out your clothes! However, the payoff is that they do need regular grooming to keep their gorgeous coat in check.
As a responsible pet owner, one of the essential items you'll need for your Spoodle is a collar. Collars serve not only as a fashion accessory but also as a means of identification and, of course, control during walks. However, with so many options available, choosing the best collar for your Spoodle can be a daunting task. In this guide, we'll explore the factors to consider and recommend some top choices to ensure you find the perfect collar for your furry companion.
Should a Spoodle Wear a Collar?
The answer is yes!
Whilst there are many dog breeds who have delicate necks (like Yorkshire Terriers), or breathing problems (such as Bulldogs), Responsible Pet Breeders Australia, says that the Spoodle breed has a strong enough neck, well-suited to wearing collars.
