Collar Exchange Program

Trade the pain for a harness.

If you are in the Monterrey area, you can trade a prong collar, choke chain or shock collar for a standard collar or harness, free of charge. These collars can cause pain and injury to a dog’s neck and throat.

Key takeaways

Why exchange these collars?

Prong collars, choke chains and shock collars work by causing discomfort or pain. They can injure a dog’s neck and throat, and they do not teach the dog what you want instead. A well-fitted collar or harness keeps your dog safe and comfortable on walks.

How does the exchange work?

Get in touch with us, tell us the type of collar you have and the size of your dog, and we will arrange a time and place in the Monterrey area to make the swap. You hand over the old collar; you leave with a standard collar or harness at no cost.

Arrange an exchange

Tell us what you have and what you need, and we will arrange the swap in Monterrey.
