Quick release buckles

I fell down a little rabbit hole looking at personalized dog collars on Etsy, sigh. I want to order something for Rusty, and a quick release buckle seems like a good idea. How do those work? Rusty doesn't pull in general, but possums happen. Is a quick release buckle something that will pop open if he runs off after a critter or if I'm trying to restrain him from one? I use a harness for most of his walks, but the collar will get some use from time to time.

Like the kind you put on cats?

Yeah if your dog pulled on that they'd get away
Martingales are safe and humane. They tighten so your dog cannot get loose, but not enough to choke your dog.

If thats the case, then go for it.. Personally don't care for collars at all for dogs who pull because it can damage their trachea.

I'd put on the quick realease with tags, but don't attach the lead, only use the harness and teach your dog to heel before using a collar

Thats good, how old is your dog? Might have just been a puppy fear period.. it happens.
ah, makes sense. What breed? A hound? Those guys mature slower.

Whatever collar you and your dog feels comfortable with is a-okay
I'd love yo see your dog some time c:
