You know why

Not bad at connecting them. Its a way for animation studios to save money. The collar covers the line where the different animation cells meet. Scooby’s head and body are drawn on separate layers so that when he talks the animators only have to draw his head. Yogi wears a tie for the same reason.
The same basic principle can be seen in stop motion animation films, like Chicken Run. Every chicken is wearing something around their neck to cover the split line between the silicone bodies and the plasticine heads that had to be continuously replaced for the different poses and expressions.
