Why do only Pit Bull owners buy dog collars with spikes
I've never seen a poodle, lab, or collie with a spiked collar, but l see
lots of Pits with them.Pit Bull owners are quick to defend what nice dogs
they are, but it makes me wonder what the rationale behind the spiked
collar is.Is it the owner trying to increase the dangerous look of his/her
pet, or does the pet get in a lot of fights and need neck protection?Either
way, either the dog or the owner - or both - are psycho. So, what is with the spiked collars?
oh yeah, the dog and the owner are psycho. where do you people
get this stupid stuff. the collar is all about looks. people already
think pits are the meanest dogs on earth, even though the little ankle
biters are more likely to attack then a pit. i have two pits. i have
pinch collars for them, to train them. i would nt put a spike collar on
them because they serve no purpose. but if people want to, more power to
them.
some people are trying to make their dog look tough i guess. i
think spike collars look good on male dogs. it makes them look more
''manly'' hahahaha.i have a male chihuahua, i think a spike collar looks
cute on him. one time i went online and trying to find spike collar for
him but i never got it for him though. it really depends on what the owner
is thinking.
They buy dog collars with spikes for the same reason they buy
Pit Bulls. They want to look tough. (In other words they're scared and
they want people to be scared of their dog!)
I think that the reason most of the time is that the owner just
wants their pit to look cool or bad. But I've had a Chihuahua/weiner mix
and I got him a little spike collar for Christmas and he looked cute in it
so it is all up to the owner is tastes, I guess.
It is for image or effect mostly,however it can protect the dog
is neck in a fight legal or otherwise. I own a red nose pit bull & i don't
use a spiked collar. Her name is Baby & over the years we have chased bad
guys in the rain together & she has always protected the children from all
comers 4 legs or two. At 14 years today,she plays with other kids & grown
ups a like.The dog often gets the blame for the owners screw ups. Anything
with teeth will bite. I have bitten a few people myself.Please don't give into fear,get the facts. A dog is a dog unless humans teach them to be something else. Small dogs attack people also German Sheppards & Russian Wolfhounds were used as war dogs. The media needs to sell papers & viewership. Nothing does that better than drama(human or animal). People train chickens to fight,yet no one ever says those chickens will attack you.Please don't encourage the hate & fear in the world. Treat pit bull so called attacks & attacks on a case by case basis. Peace.
Someone trying to be macho. When you see a spiked collar on a
large breed of dog, it is usually the owner, not the dog, you need to
watch out for. Unless it is part of a pet costume contest and it is
wearing a leather outfit with it.
They are trying to make the dog look cool, thats all. My friend
has a Newfie & she wears a spiked collar.lol I think it just looks neat but
wouldnt put one on my dog I like utilitarian look something that is
durable, easy to undo & has a colour to match the dogs coat. Most spiked
collars are made of leather which I find to be less durable than Nylon
collars otherwise I woul like a spiked collar because it looks neat, my
dog isnt a pitty though. I know my friends dog was an American Bulldog & he just looked silly with a thin nylon collar on he looked much more distinguished with his 2 inch wide studded (not spiked) collar. I might add that he never fought with other dogs & ws very sociable. The only reason for the collar was that it suited him & looked good on him. I know some people just do it because they think its cool & say that the collars is there for fights but they are the idiots of the dog owner world & it shouldnt be assumed that all people put spiked collars on thier dogs to make them look tougher or increase thier own image vicariously. Not all dogs wearing spiked collars are pittys, but an inordinate number of them do because they got the breed in the first place to make themselves look tough & want to enhance the image further.
To try & show power it is sickening. Let me tell you something.
Dogs are tried to be mean. The owner is what makes a dog. I have a sister
to my best friend is dog. My dog is sweet ,and will lay with a cat.She is
a pit bull. My friend is dog would tear that same cat up.Why is that you
might ask? Because I took my dog out to dog parks,made her live with cats
& I took the time out that was needed to show my dog to be nice.To make a
long story short The owner is the one responsible to the dog.
I always thought the spike collars were for large dogs that
couldn't protect themselves from dangerous predators like yorkies and
miniature pinschers. Or possibly to make up for the owners insecurity.
The poodle next door wears a spiked collar his name is spike.
I have seen boxers great Danes, saint bernards, cocker
spaniel.pomerarians, kerry blues & chihuahua with spikes. My pit bull
wears a hot pink collar. My last dog a 8lb poodle x wore a black spiked
collar. It as to do with what people like. A lot of pits wear what is
known as a punch collar when being trained for greater control. They are
after all very strong & us good owners keep control so stupid people wont try to hurt our pets. Again my pit had to go to the vet because the dangerous kid next door hit him with a bat & cut open his head. & the only thing my baby did was be outside in his own backyard. For the girl who asked how many pit attacks, last year 10 with 3 fatal. More kids were killed by their parents, around 2000. Stop letting the Media think for you & take a look at what is happening. There are people who want to ban more than pit bulls they want to make it where there are no dogs over 30lbs allowed. Stop giving up freedom
They just look cool, but for people like you and me whom don't
feel a need to prop up our ego is owning a pitbull just seems crazy
Not true! Some people wear spiked collars, although they may be
considered psycho also and they usually buy the spiked bracelets to go with
the ensemble.
I have saw them on English Bulls and on Doberman Pincers.
THEY do look good on a sleek healthy dogs coat,,,, Where I live
Scumbags!! fight their Pit Bulls.. IS AWFUL how they treat the dogs..
IF ONLY the poor dogs would just turn on the jerks and KILL THEM--bet it
would stop.as they are all Cowards and lower than a snakes belly!!
idk.but those dogs r not the nicest at all..do u kno how many
cases they have been in with attackin ppl.and even killin babies..but i
have seen a chiwawa(dont kno if i spelled it right) wit a spiked collar
probably just to make the doog look tough.even though alot of
other dogs wear spiked collars like rotti's. and i wouldent call the dog
psyco because its not their fault to choose wut their owners put on
them.also i seen alot of pitbulls without the spikes
Guys with small you-know-what is (as well as insecure people)
get pit bulls, so of course they're trying to make them look as tough as
possible to cover up their own insecurity. It is the same theory as big
trucks
Yes they are trying to make their dog look dangerous. I own a
pure bred pit, and she is the sweetest thing. She might just lick you to
death if you give her the chance. And for the record, I don't have a
spiked collar on here. I would though if I was in a creepy neighbor hood,
or wanted to scare someone away. Same thing goes for my German Shepard
Rottie that I have.
