We use martingales on our terriers for the same reason that grey owners use them - small heads. Chester can pull out of a regular collar very easily.
I would love to find one small enough in circumference, but that would be a bit wider. I haven't ever seen one, though. :(
The reason why we use martingales has been covered, but I just wanted to add to the collar fetish. Martingales are like Greyhounds. They come in all colors and designs and you can't have just one!!! Giselle only has 2, but hey...It's only been 4 months...I think 2"ers should be reserved for the looong necks or the slender, swan-like necks. 1 1/2"ers are the Looks good on every Grey, imo. Thankfully, for me, Giselle can gracefully sport a 2"er;)
Around the Hounds makes beautiful martingales (and I believe she does buckle collars as well). Another greyt source is Majestic Collars!
Most of our collars are 1 1/2 inches. Tag collars are always 1inch and some of our hounds have some fancy 2incher b/c they have the neck to pull it off.
Here's Hanna saying "BUY ME MORE COLLARS NOW MOM!!!!"

Does anyone know if they sell them in stores anywhere?
I've really never trusted buying online.. I dunno why but it's just always been a weird thing for me. But, I would like to get one for Nala as she has a fairly long neck and they are reeeally pretty!
I LOVE the polka dot ones on both sites!
I doubt it. I have trouble finding regular plain 'ol martingales that slip on. Another option may be to find a Greyhound adoption group near you and ask if they sell martingales. I bought Giselle's from our group. You also help the adoption group in the process :)!
Petsmart has them but they're just plain nylon in a solid color.
