Collar Suggestions?

[Roxyluvsme13]

You can get some realy good quality nylon working dog (Sheep/ Cattle dog) collars pretty cheaply at most feed/ produce stores, they come in nice bright colors aswell.

Are they strong enough to stand a 55ish pound dog?

Yep they are used for working dogs, dogs that are chained up at the sale yards, on the backs of utes, to fences when not working etc.

I am currently looking for a link for you to check out . Will post it when i find it.

Ok!

It is double thickness nylon, the buckles are realy strong.

There's a Farm and Garden Place Near my house...Would they poosibly have one? (I'd prefer purple )

Any place that stocks cattle & horse feed, and working dog food should stock them and similar collars. Tinny has that collar in yellow it looks terrible on her .

lol! They always dont have those colors though. They share. But Lily wears alot of purple, too. BUT Her bed, first collar, leash, some toys, and other stuff are all pink! Roxy's 2 leashes are purple, and her first collar was purple

I was looking at some of the links you posted, I was just going to mention to try to get a wider type of collar, some of those pics were too thin. With her chain being attached the thin ones could break easily and also damage her neck if she pulled hard if she saw something cool and ran to the end of her chain. The wider ones distribute the pull exerted on her neck so it wouldn't hurt her accidentally. I think the pic of the nylon one that was posted looked pretty good that way.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Yeah, I thought of that after I posted those...If I cant find the nylon one, then I'm getting one of the Deerskin ones. (if you have any idea what I'm talking about?)

If strength is a concern, be sure to read the tag on the collar. Some are only rated for inside use. Since mine live outdoors 24/7, I use the nylon collars with flat metal closures. These metal closures are also the ones recommended for dogs that are chained. You should be able to get one at Petsmart for $20 or less.

Do you have a link to the collars that you're talking about???

Here's one similar to the one Rhi posted.. (Here's looks like it'd be stronger for an outside dog, though.)
