Personally, my pet never wears a collar at home. I only put a collar on her when I’m taking her out for a walk. When you leave a collar on the dog for too long, it’ll leave a mark. My neighbour’s dog has been wearing his collar for years, and now my neighbour regrets it because his coat is damaged from it.

My dog keeps his collar on at night, it doesn’t seem to bother him.

This depends on the collar. If it's a light, thin material then it probably won’t bother your dog. But if it’s a thick leather collar then it might be better to remove it at night.

Your dog will probably be more comfortable without a collar on at night! And a collar only takes a couple of seconds to put on or take off….

it's up to you to decide whether to remove your dog's collar at night based on their individual needs and preferences. Just make sure to consider their safety and comfort first and foremost.

I know some people leave them on, but it’s probably more comfy for your dog without it, especially if they sleep a lot or roll around. Collars can also rub on their neck, causing irritation or even sores if they wear them too long. Plus, taking it off can give their fur a little breather. Of course, if your dog has a tag with important info or a tracking device, you might want to leave it on. I usually grab a comfy bed and have my dogs chill out without collars at night. If you’re ever looking for a good collar, check out ranchhand.store—they've got some solid options!
