Me trying on the collars in the store is probably a clue.
I was gonna comment about doing the same thing lol :3
Don’t just go telling everyone about what @frustrated_phagocytosis@fedia.io does!
customers asking for the fitting room is a clue
Partner A: “Go on, give the nice cashier what you’re buying.”
Partner B: “H-here.”
Cashier: “That’ll be $17.”
Partner A: “Now hand over the money I gave you.”
Partner B: “H-here.”
Cashier: “Here’s your change and the collar.”
Partner B: Grabs them while smiling and starts to turn away to leave.
Partner A: “What do we say to the cashier?”
Partner B: “Th-thank you.”
Partner A: “Good job! Let’s go home and try it on.”
Cashier: Just one more hour to 3 o’clock. Maybe I can sneak another smoke break in after that.
This person retails.
My wife has the same size neck as our dog, and one time we were out and decided to stop and get the dog a new collar so we tried them on her to see if they would fit the dog. Do you think they could clock that we were only trying them on to check the fit for the dog?

🤨 How did you discover this?
By sharing collars of course
Absolutely. You know the joke about vegans or cross-fitters or arch users? Dog owners in a pet store put all 3 of them to shame in terms telling everybody who will listen about their dog(s)
Pics or it’s a human dog.
She certainly acts like she’s human
Poor thing! You go make a lap for that baby on the sofa right now!
She’d be terribly upset if I tried to get her on my lap, haha. She loves it when I lean over the back of the couch and hug on her when she’s sitting on the couch though, I’ll make sure she gets a few extra “couch pets” when I get home today
You just reminded me of a song: King’s X - Dogman
We do that with our reptiles, but the clerk also has reptiles she loves talking about.
PSA: Don’t buy a little-dog collar if your pet is a cat. Cats, even indoor ones, need a breakaway clasp on their collar in case it gets caught on something when they’re mid-leap. Indoor cats may not need a collar at all, but mine wears a bell so she’s less likely to get kicked/stepped on/rolled on, she’s too ninja for her own good. And my cell# is written on it just in case.
^^^ Yeah that ^^^
I had a flighty cat, she was investigating a paper bag when someone rang the doorbell, she bolted like fucking mad but stuck her head through the paper handle. Maximum effort, claws out she scrabbled up the stairs ripping the bag away. except for a perfect little cape square. I had to go drag her out from under the bed to remove the cape. if it was plastic, she’d probably have strangled herself or broken something.
Dogs do also! I came downstairs and had to emergency rescue our shi tzu many years ago. Our rescue German shepherd mix of something smaller got her lower jaw stuck in his collar while playing and I presume twisted trying to get her jaw out. Neither of them were able to make enough noise to get help and were laying defeated on the floor when I saw them. It was horrible. Luckily they both seemed fine after a few minutes of getting them free but it was really scary.
Dogs need the same for indoor collars for the same reasons
They probably figure it out when they ask “would you like a bag, today?” and I say “No thanks. I’ll be wearing it out.”
I think your fursuit might tip them off just a little bit too.
You mean the customers with the pup play masks on? Perhaps
The real question is whether or not dog collar manufacturers know, and if they make changes or considerations in their designs so that humans can wear them too
I had a red one that I had washed once, and it started bleeding red dye over everything. Did not make me feel comfortable wearing it going forward.
Being marked by red dye around my neck in public is incredibly hot to imagine
Though… Not sure about the safety of the dye… Ahhhhh
I mean, yeah, if you don’t bring a dog in to try the dog collar on you’re definitely gonna look weird.
Yes.

Avoid the black leather ones and You’re good.
Or, like, also not
They don’t care.
