    Yes. I trust my dogs not to run out the door but to put it bluntly, I live with a bunch of idiots. It doesn't matter how mad I get or how often I remind my mom, she still continues to let Kai wander around our front yard unleashed. I trust that they won't bolt out the door.. but once outside, I don't trust them at all. They both have fears that no amount of obedience training will control. So until I move out, they'll have their collars and tags on 24/7.

    No, I don't like how it makes her neck look bald lol. She isn't prone to running off and in the case that she did, she'd never let anyone go near her anyways. She is tattooed.
    I've been BOO'd!

    No; only when leaving the house or going outside the fenced area. I used to have it on them at all times but was having hair loss problems where the harness rubbed, so they only wear them when necessary.

  4. I voted no. my dog never wares a collar.

    we live out in the middle of no where and our property is fenced in..
    so there isnt really the need for a collar

    Nope. My dogs only wear their collars when we go somewhere. I hate having to put tags on them because they are so little and the tags are so big, so they only wear them when they have to. Also Buster and Charlie are always curled up in a blanket (Nacey and Nova are sometimes too) and I have see their tags get stuck in the blanket before.

    Hair rubs are usually from the wrong type of collar for the coat. Sonny has worn a flat collar for 15 years and has not problems, while his sister had a rolled collar and had a bald spot on her neck.

    yes and no.

    Beanie keeps his on 24/7. Gracie gets hers taken off when she comes in the house. i keep it off so it doesn't rub off the hairs on her neck.

    No, I don't. I also like seeing them without collars, when they're hanging out in the house it's kind of pointless to have a collar on. They also don't wear collars while playing frisbee/ball/flyball, because the tags are a hazard and I don't want feet to get caught when they're playing... they do wear harnesses, though.
