Once upon a time in Europe, wolfhound dogs were worn with wide iron collars (so that the wolf could not grab them by the neck), and for hunting wild boars, dogs wore special armor made of chain mail. Before the Second World War, one instance of such armor was stored in the collection of the Wartburg castle in Germany.
Here is an example of mentioned passive weapon - a Medieval dog collar found in Hungary, but with spikes instead of plates.
