what would be the best collar to use for a great dane dog, that won’t cause red marks/rash around their neck?

I have regular Nylon collar that she wears, But what one would be best for like walking n training her with, I havent used a prong collar yet, but would that cause any redness around the neck when it jabs or pokes her? I have tried choke chains and martingales but they really hurt her neck, and i dont wanna go to using those anymore. I think its since they have short fur that its sensitive on their necks?
shes really strong too so its hard to just walk her with a regular collar. I want somethin that won't hurt around her neck.
yeah i do use a halti sometimes for walking her.
Yea . I have had her in a few obedience classes, and gonna keep her in them for a while.
does your dane get a sore/red neck with certain collars?
Is there anything that would help to prevent this??

Why does my maltese dog have some fur on his face that is similar to whiskers?

My maltese is a male and he is three years old. On his face most of the fur is normal but there are a fur strands of almost "plasticy" hair that stick up and are hard and look and feel almost like whiskers. Is this normal or is this something I should be concerned about? Please help!
He's not a wire haired breed....he's a maltese
I thought whiskers were only for cats???
