When taking your dog for a walk it can always be a bit nerve-wracking to allow your dog to interact with others you meet on the footpath or at the park. Your dog may be the sweetest dog on the planet, but you don't know the personality of the dog your four-legged family member is bounding up to, out of your reach. Just because your dog is friendly and the dog they are desperate to introduce themselves to looks friendly, doesn't mean they will be. It doesn't mean they don't get nervous around other dogs or children and lash out to protect themselves. If your dog is running around off-lead and the dog they are meeting feels at a disadvantage on a lead with nowhere to run, they could be the biggest, friendliest goofball normally but when they tell your dog to get out of their personal space they may do it with some force.
There's never really been any way to tell, has there? I know I can get nervous when my dog starts sniffing at a stranger's dog, as it could either go very well or very badly in an instant.

But there is a brilliant way of putting a halt to those nerves, and that is with collars, leashes and dog jackets by Friendly Dog Collars.
Honestly, it puts an end to the guessing. You can tell from a distance whether a dog is friendly or dangerous. Whether you can allow your dog to approach or it will likely end in Vet bills.

Traffic Light System
Friendly Dog Collars started with a basic traffic light system. Red for caution as the dog can be aggressive, orange for dogs that don't get along with other dogs but may get along with people, and green for friendly dogs that are alright to approach. See? No guessing. They have also added to the range to include different colours for nervous dogs, dogs in training, blind, deaf, adoptable dogs as well as service dogs and dogs that strangers should not feed.
They were even featured on The Project so check it out for yourself.

The more dog owners to use these collars, leashes, harnesses etc. the better. Especially owners of aggressive or nervous dogs. With Friendly Dog Collars there is simply less possibility of dog attacks, as owners will know to keep their dogs and themselves away from aggressive or unpredictable dogs before anything can happen which makes for happier, safer walks for everybody.
Or just like Sierra in the above video, your dog may look (or its breed is known for being) aggressive, but is actually a loveable, friendly pup who just wants to play. By utilising the Friendly collar it shows owners that they have nothing to fear by allowing their dog to play and socialise with yours when they may have originally been wary and chosen not to.
Friendly Dog Collars have stockists in Australia, the UK and US, and you can order them online.
