Re: proper fitting of martingale style collar?

well that is one of the reasons..the other is control.

Can you explain to me why a dog would be able to slip out of a martingale as easily as a flat? I'm asking because I've never used one.

Also, what would you recommend as opposed to the martingale for slipping out?

Backing/Slipping out is a concern for me because the training building we go to is on a high hill overlooking a super busy highway. I have been walking Happy from the car to the building on a harness, for the simple reason I think I would just die if he slipped his collar and got loose in that situation. The problem is Happy acts like a jerk on the harness. Once the leash is strapped to his collar, he's perfect.
