I sometimes take cairos off if shes not going out anywhere.But I do always take it off at night when we go to bed so the collar doesnt dig into her while shes sleeping

No. Luna chews them off the moment I turn my back or leave them. I think it's guerilla warfare because she hated her collar when I put it on as a pup.

Inca likes to be nude! And I think she's prettier without it

She's trained to sit and wait to get it put on about 4 meters back from the door before going out (and when visitors arrive) so there's no chance she could run out without it.

Patch doesnt seem to be bothered by his which is good. He has his on all the time he occassionally will itch under it but he seems fine with it.

normally yes all day every day..but we had a real scare today..Amy ran under the table got her collar caught on a bit on the chair leg and then she managed to knock the chair over and started choking. Sooooo glad hubby was here when it happened!! She's fine but it makes you a bit wary for a while.

I said yes but they only have collars on if I'm not home (I.D. & all even though they are chipped.) or check chains if we go for a walk. But when we're home relaxing together, No. They dont ever.

I take their collars off 90% of the time an esp at night as if they get up and have a little wonder round in the night the noise their tags makes on their collars wakes me up! lol
