I don't know who you are asking. With my dog, I can not have any pressure on his neck at all so he does not wear a collar of any kind. From how this harness is supposed to work, having it attached to anthing but the loosest (is that even a word?) of collars would make the harness ineffective. It would also put all kinds of constant un-natural pressure on the neck if the leash was connected to both the harness and the collar. Someone was not thinking when they made that diagram. With the head halter, yes, the neck collar should be connected to the leash too. I have seen the head halters fail, ie come off, in a panic situation and then you have a loose dog.
