Wow, he looks so vicious!! LOL
Hey, get a Lupine brand collar. They are guaranteed for life. If he shreds it you take it back to a Lupine dealer and get a new one free. I'm not sure where they are sold, but we sell them at the shelter I volunteer with. But since you aren't here anymore.....
If you look online and see a pattern you like I can get it for you and ship it to you. I will get a discount on it at the shelter too.
