Hello, it's Dr. Carra here from the Paws & Effect Podcast. In our recent episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Matt about the crucial topic of selecting the right restraint for your furry friend.

We delved into the concept that collars and leashes should be viewed as a safety belt, not a steering wheel, and stressed the significance of proper leash training. Matt shared his insights on the benefits of flat collars and harnesses, highlighting their roles as safety tools.
