Seems like most of the collars (and harnesses) have plastic snaps, that just scares me. The collars we have on both dogs and the harness for Henry all have the plastic snaps, but we keep metal chokers on the ends of their leashes that are used when we walk them.

There are some breeds and individuals where the structure of the head and neck make safely using a collar impossible. Ever seen a wrestler with no neck, there are some dogs like that too.
