Will this collar I made be strong enough?

Question

I crocheted a collar with a handle, also called a deployment collar, out of Red Heart acrylic worsted weight yarn.  It is single crocheted and a tight stitch.  The handle is connected with crochet, then folded back and crocheted over again, picking up two rows on the connection points.  

I am not thinking of doing protection training, as she's 5 years already, but I think it would be useful when company comes over so I can reach down and correct her if she gets out of hand.

I have no clue how to crochet but I sure wouldn't trust a large breed dog with a crocheted collar. It should be fine for a small dog if it is just for show

really it depends on the type of dog that you have if its a huge German shepherd who tends to lung at people then I would have to say no. But if its a smaller breed or even a large breed that doesnt lunge and you just want the collar to work with her then i would say that it would be okay. But if you have a lunging dog i would suggest leather or a heavy nylon.
