Thread: Collars?

  1. #1

    Collars?

    I wanted to get Moose a new collar while I was home and I can't decide which kind to get. I was thinking maybe a nice leather one since he won't be going to the beach again until spring.

    Any suggestions/preferences?

    Mine have Nylon collars, they're pretty good. Of course, leather ones are probably much nicer.

    I like the colorful, printed nylon collars, but mine just have plain ones. Hey, I needed a reason to go to Petsmart tomorrow!

    I like the leather ones with the spikes, too.

    Moose has a nylon collar now...I love it, especially when we go to the beach and he goes swimming and stuff. I just want to get something "nice" for him before I go back to school. I'm planning on making a trip to Petsmart sometime next week to "stock up" for him.

    Katie has a nice brown leather collar. Its very nice, and I recommend them. Katie usually destroys her nylon collars, and this one is still alive

    Nebo has a few collars. He used to wear a blue reflective nylon one all the time. He has a really cute blue one with pawprints too. Right now he's wearing a rolled leather one. It's very nice, it seems to make the fur on his neck look fluffier than w/ the nylon.

    I bought Reggie a black leather collar with silver diamond shapes too...I was going to get him a spiked one (hehehe) but the one his size was missing a spike.

    Weaver makes a very nice looking/affordable rolled leather bridle
    collar with a brass buckle. You can find it cheaper in the dog cataloges.

    Duke's new collar is leather with dog bones. Very pretty. Also, very reasonable at Petsmart. Only $16. I don't like the spiked collars. For one thing, how about when the dog is scratching himself and rubs his paws against those? And I had a nylon collar a long time ago but it tore up really easily. This new collar I've got now is very durable. Much nicer than the one I bought for a lot more money.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    The one I was going to get Reggie had very small spikes with really rounded tips. They weren't sharp at all. I just thought it would be funny because he's such a small dog with a BIG attitude.

    Thanks for the comments everyone.

    Val, I was actually at Petsmart earlier today just "browsing" with Moose and I saw the collar you got for Duke. I loved it! It's gorgeous! ...and yes, very affordable for such a nice-looking collar.

    I just use nylon snap collars, they last, they are affordable, and they work for us when shadow was found she had a light brown leather collar but it did not last nearly as long as our snap nylon collars have, the nylon buckle collars dont last but the snap ones do
