My Lab slipped out her collar

Was the collar not sized properly? I have never known any dog to slip out of a properly sized collar unless they’re missing half their skull.

If the dog is determined enough... I had a beagle who would slip his collar, so I got him a harness, he would slip that too, so I had to get this full body "tactical" harness for him. He was good with that one for a while till he figured out he could cheese off the back buckle and wriggle out of the rest.

I also had a boxer growing up that learned how to slip her collar.

I have a friend who raises black and tans, and he had a removed that would always slip her collar when she was chained.

I currently raise Blueticks and fortunately have not had any of them figure that out. But my only indoor bluetick learned how to unlock deadbolts and open doors... so she is now an outdoor only dog. And then she learned how to open gates... so now all the gates have to be locked.

She's slightly overweight and the collar was not tight.
