Because we do crazy things for our pooches…

Spiked Dog Collars: Who looks good in them?

Spiked Dog Collars

Spiked dog collars…somewhat of an aggressive look for a pooch, but I can see how it works for certain breeds. The Dobermans, Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, and Bulldogs look pretty bad ass sporting the look (their attitudes and bodies fit the image too). I can’t say I have ever seen a spaniel, a lab, or a retriever in this leather and chain type garb…what other breeds do you think can sport this bling and get away without looking ridiculous? (Perhaps a Chihuahua with a missing identity?)

Make no mistake, the spiked collar isn’t just for the fellas. The ladies are sporting the look too, with pink, magenta, and turquoise among the color options. The babes aren’t afraid in this modern world to tell the boys they bring power to the dog park. Bow wow wow, the ladies run this place, ya?

Though I’ll never open my pocket book for a spiked collar for Stanley, our Brittany Spaniel, it won’t cost you an arm and a leg to pick up this look for your pup. Petsmart has spiked collars from $10 to $55 (the upper end is a Harley Davidson collectors edition), but some smaller boutique stores may charge up to or more than $100 depending on the design and size of the pooch.

At the end of the day, I wonder if there is a strong correlation between owners that wear spiked collars, bracelets, and accessories, and their dogs…I’ll take a stroll in Hollywood some weekend to do some research.

Would you get a spiked collar for your four legged buddy? If so, why?
