 This by far is the more
traditional collar. It is important for a dogslave chain locked around his
neck by his Owner, this one looks permanent, Master has the key, it
not only cries out 'slave', but with the dog disk adds another slant - animal.
Ownership is an essential part of the dogs psyche, the sense of belonging,
the self-identification of what you are, Dog to the core.
It is important have his doggy chain lock (by his Owner) around his
neck.
This is one reason why it is one of the logos of the DogHouse, Ownership is
an essential part of the dogs psyche, the sense of belonging, the self-identification
of what you are. The dog tag is important as it separates him from the traditional
slave, yes he is property, but more than that his is basically animal - and
treated like one.
A choke chain should only be used as a training
aid or control check whilst you are walking or training your dog. When selecting
a choke chain consider your dog size, weight and activeness ensuring
the correct size and strength used.
Ensure that it is not too tight, tight enough
so that it cannot come off, loose enough so that it clanks (the padlock and
doggy disk) against his dog bowl when he feels. As a guide the correct
tightness of the chain is when the Master can get his fist around the chain
when he pulls on it (don't yank it) it would leave a gap of about an inch
from Masters knuckles and the dogs neck. When this is locked on the padlock
is then just below the hollow of the neck. For example for a neck of
16inches (41cm) a chain would typically be about 18.5 inches (47cm)
and the lock link just adding a extra centimetre or two. Assume 1 inch=2.54cm.
Your slave might have a big Adam's Apple which might means his chain has to
ride over this easy, so take this as his widest point.
Also note that Brass does not rust, but with
the acids in the skin it can produce a green/blue residue ("vert de gris")
this is Copper Sulphate and comes with any material based on copper.
Just clean it regularly. In time your natural body oils will produce a natural
barrier on the padlock, it will then become a yellow/brown colour. Alternative
locks are in laminate steel and look less good, but it is a choice you make.
You can get started with a visit to a hardware
store and a pet shop.
Its worthwhile going for one that has some weight to it as it is more likely
to have a higher quality of metal under the Chrome plate.
Some stores have tags that they can inscribe your details on the tag whilst
you wait.

Due to the level of demand, the doghouse now provide The Doghouse
dog chain collars.
In general the chain is 4 inches longer that the shirt collar size of the
slave - thing ensures that it hangs right and you can get your hand in there
and control him good.
The dog tag can be engraved with his name on the front and a 'property of
Master xxx' on the back (done with a laser so fonts can vary for the text).
The Master locks have the one unique key, but then the collar is ok to remove
with a decent pair of Bolt Cutters if you loose the key - unless the Harden
Steel option is used. This helps with the decision of who own the collar,
is it the Masters or the slaves - there is but one key.
