You need to play the doggy shrink here and make it a fun game for her. Reward her for putting it on and take her mind off it. If she hasn't always worn one, its alien to her so who can blame her for not being happy about it.

Its just like this one Zing http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DOG-COLLAR-Sem...em?refid=store

I was under the impression a half check chain should only be used when training , , the thinner the collar the more likely it is to cause harm on the neck of the dog, especially on a staffy as they can have a tendancy to pull towards people , anyway i have had 2 collars from
www.aecollars.co.uk

excellent site , Don't worry Zing , i'm sure the more she wears it the more she will get used to it , Zak used to get a redish patch under his neck from wearing a collar , but no more . Zak also only wears his collar when he goes out.
