A 2.5 mm Herm Sprenger chrome plated steel collar fits best for dogs with weight up to 99 lbs (45 kg). Choose this medium choke chain dog collar for short haired dogs, as its short links may tangle and cut long and fine fur. Also it looks best on dark-haired dogs shining on its neck as a necklace. But the main reason you should not choose it for a dog with white or light fur is its nickel plating, that may leave marks. Still its chromium-nickel plating is a great benefit that makes this chain super shiny and rustproof. You may use this choker collar for dog training in wet conditions. Its rust resistance is reliable until the plating is safe and unscratched. But be sure that the plating will last long for the dual process of galvanizing when chromium and nickel penetrate deep into steel to provide a reliable rust resistance.
It makes this product a great choice of a dog chain collar for Doberman dogs, a dog chain collar for Rottweiler dogs etc.
This Herm Sprenger flat link collar is a professional dog training tool for dog obedience and behaviour correction. The smooth dog check chain glides evenly to tighten and release quickly in training.
How to put on a choke chain dog collar? A choke chain dog collar is taken on a dog's head unreleased, so it should be a bit larger than a dog's head. Measure the neck size of your dog and add 2 or 3 inches to define the collar length it requires. A dog collar size is its length from the end of one ring to end of another ring. Choose the dog choke collar size from the options at the page top.
Add approximately 3 inches to your dog neck circumference - it is the size of a dog choke collar.
A nickel-containing dog chain collar may leave spots on white fur. For fair-haired dogs you may choose stainless steel or curgan dog chain collar types. But still there is no 100% warranty that it won't leave marks on white or fair fur color.
