| Admittedly I bought this particular collar because I wanted a martingale style to run with my 30lb Coonhound mix, and this one qualified us for free shipping since we were buying other products. I also didn't realized it was recycled materials used and it creates this nice-feeling, almost softer version of the normal nylon webbing. Also, the stock image does not do it justice - this collar is neon green! Take a look at Premier ECO Quick Snap Dog Collar to get a better idea of the color. All in all, very cute and very sturdy collar. My pup is also thrilled to have gotten rid of the uncomfortable harness when we run. |
Excellent collar

| This is the 5th collar we've tried on our tiny Brussels Griffon and I'm very happy to have finally found one that is stronger than my (somewhat insane) dog. The dog has serious issues with bicyclists and has bitten a couple as they've ridden by our house; he's broken the plastic "snaps" which are the most common type of dog collar we see everywhere (pet stores) a couple times -- even on a harness - because he gives such a tremendous and sudden yank when he sees a bike. We found a traditional buckle type collar but he actually snapped the ring off the collar and broke free. I was afraid to use the chain-choke collar because it looks too easy to get out of, and was nervous about this because another review here says that dog got out of the collar. Well, I love this collar - it has never slipped off our dog (we keep it on him all the time, inside and out - it doesn't seem to bother him at all) and it actually keeps him secure - many cyclists have passed our house safely!! |
Excellent quality, buy a smaller size if in doubt

Quality: This is better than I expected. The fabric is thick and very durable. The metal hardware also seems to be of good quality. The fabric surface has a soft feeling to it, without hard-edges, so I guess the dog likes it too.
Size: I bought a small size for my 10 lb sheltie (yes, it is one of the smallest shelties I ever seen), and it works great. I noticed that my small size collar can actually expand and accommodate much larger neck too: up to about 12 inches in circumference and 16-17 inches when fully expanded (ie, the head of the dog should not be bigger than this). It can go down to as small as 7 inches in circumference. So if your dog's neck is between 7 to 12 inches (in circumference), the small size works beautifully. |
Good Dog Collar

| I like this martingale collar. It's well made and fits my 45 pound mutt very well. |

As I said this works but it is not our favorite collar. I like that it tightens but won't strangle the dog. But I found one with a chain closure that we like much better..
If I am allowed to say this, we got it at THEMODDOG on etsy, [...] |
