My boy is a real escape artist, and I mean real - Julius K9, loads that people have recommended as being for 'Houdini dogs'. He also chews through leashes, including a beautiful, very expensive leather and brass….which he neatly chewed into 8 inch lengths when I was foolish enough to leave it below 6 feet up....the only thing I trust my boy to be tethered in is his current harness - a Ruffwear Webmaster. For walking, yes, a martingale (and oddly enough, Butu has never worked the trick when slack), but I'd definitely not trust him tethered. I'd get him one of these, and probably a chain and trust him in an open stall where he can see you and you can chat....I'd make the chain long enough that he could stand in the entrance, but could go inside the stall if he wants a sleep, drink, food from his bowls....do not let him near tack, horses feeding stuff, horse's anything - and I'd be cautious about hay too.... Chealsie508 - have you tried these (Ruffwear Webmaster?) If this hadn't worked I was going for a Ruffwear Doubleback, which costs a serious amount of money (but when I think of the number of useless harnesses I've bought..) but is the nearest thing I've seen to a doggie straitjacket - it's used by those people who drag labradors rock climbing....

3 New Collars
-
I love the one with the fur on the inside! And I like the white stitching on the chestnut leather..
It only needs some decoration 
And maybe 3 inches is a bit too much… -
Very nice collars and leads love the fur one. I maybe having a New Year's just don't see but how do we get a hold of this man please.

Awesome! I've been looking for a leather quick release lead for coursing. Zoni's breeder has ones for her dogs (not as nice as these though) and they seem so durable. Thanks for sharing. The tooled ones are gorgeous.

very nice collars! I too like the ones with fur very much!
But I prefer the collars with a buckle ( is that the right word ? ) I found a leather studio in germany who makes exactly what I want, they are so pretty and of such a perfect quality and not expensive and they made mine with my own design to stick!
still these martingale with leash collars would be very easy to use at racingtracks and coursing, hmz maybe I contact them -

Jim & Susan Bolduc 413-269-7761 bolduc@bcn.netYes, that contact info is right - thanks for posting it. I had a hard drive failure on my computer and all contact info was on there, so sorry I didn't get back on here sooner with it
I need to sync my iPhone w/computer once in a while so I'm not out of business when one or the other doesn't work.
:eek:I got a package from Bolduc yesterday with their invoice and it matches the numbers you've posted.

I will take some pictures of them and my dogs wearing them
I have only ordered 2 for my ibizans and 1 for my galgo, but my basenji male and other ibizan hound will get similar too, just need to think of a nice design I try to do this this weekend so please be patient
I also like the fact that they put metal rings on the holes for the buckle, so it doesnt tear out the hole, as most collar makers, put only the holes in it and not metal ring and then sometimes they tear out, ehm I hope you get my point, it is hard to explain in english … -
I definitely understand what you are saying about the rings in the holes :D. Your english is great BTW.

Just ordered a plain black one with lead for Bella. Thanks for posting!
