    Get the small.

  • Thx….ordered.

  • @AJs:

    Thx….ordered.

    We'll want pics of AJ modeling the new collar.:D

  • Yes, sir… :D

  • Just ordered one for Bella. Unfortunately, my wife insisted on the orange one with flowers on it.

    This will be a good test of durability. So far, she's yet to keep a collor for more than a month without eating it (even the rolled leather ones).

  • Love those collars - I think I'll be ordering a couple for my B's since they have a nice array of choices.

    No collar is Basenji chew proof unless it's a steel choker.

    All Hounds Apparel is great if you have a collar chewer because they replace their collars for life even if chewed. All you have to do is mail back the hardware and she will send a replacement. I bought one and within a week my boy dog pulled it off the hook and chewed it. I put the hardware in an envelope with some of the pieces and sent it back to her. The next week I had a new one.

    Those Basenji folks are cutting into our profits! :D So far Buddy's collar is holding up. Same with Lupine, I returned a leash and they sent a new one immediately back.

  • You got to love companies that stand by their products..I have had a Lupine collar sent back too, curtesy of Otis, got it back within a week..and yes, only a few parts were left..
    I will wait and order one of these for when I have a new basenji neck to wrap it around…

    I have used Nick Russell's collars for many years and they do not wear out. I have never had even the most wily basenji slip out of one and escape. And he will custom-make them for you if you send your ribbon to him. We are lucky that so many good products are available, everyone is bound to find something to fit your needs.

    On a side note, we found the cutest martingale collars on ebay. They are made by "ifitwags".

    This one is a tuffy to say the least :) I think everyone has an opinion on what works & doesn't work for them. And I can honestly tell you that I have tried a number of collars AND leads LOL :D Talk about trial and error. My poor husband is so confused now he's like WHAT COLLAR WHAT LEAD?? In the end we use a martingale leash (simple a martingale collar attached to a 6ft leash) to walk them & at first we used a gentle leader or snoot loop to train to walk nicely. Training them with this takes time & lots of effort. When they go on their extra long (25 ft) exploring walk (I only use this in large field or hiking when I know no one else or no other dogs will be around) I use their harnesses BUT the harness I use attaches to the lead at the top of their backs not in front. So really it's whatever is more effective for you & your dogs. I got all 3 at the All Hounds & I REALLY love their service! They are really nice & helpful. http://www.allhoundsapparel.com Short Story on choke chains: I worked with a trainer who used choke chains & I did not like using this because I nearly choked my little girl to death once while we were attacked by an off leash dog. It was an accident & she was fine but I could have really hurt her. I also think the choke chains have a negative reward for a dog while walking. If they lunge at something…person, dog, squirrel, bird etc...they will choke themselves & associate something negative with that.
