| Nice collars, I ordered 3, one for each dog. Fits my border collie/lab very well; my rottador who is on the small side--the large is just a tad too big, the medium is a tad too small (if I was a good reviewer I'd actually measure her neck so you would know whether to buy or not); and my terrier mix fits in his well. Works well, seems more comfortable to the dogs than a regular choke type collar, yet seems to do a similar job--there is definitely less pulling with this collar than with their regular collars. Not sure yet if they are paying attention to the noise of it--did correct my bordador with it like a choke collar and he responded about like usual (i.e. not as quickly as he does with the "nazi" collar (the prong type, which I just have to put on him for him to know he's supposed to be on good behavior, and he willingly stands for it and all collars since he knows what putting on collars and leases means!). I like that this collar cinches up when pulled on--makes it difficult to slip out of. I have other Ruff Wear stuff and I love it. |

Great collar! |

| This is a great colar adds control without choking the life out of the dog. I had a pinch, which is great but kept falling off (dangerous), and then a traditional choke, but hat made my dog gasp and wheeze when corrected. This coolar adds control without the wheezing and coughing. It seems well built so I doubt it will fall apart any time soon. My wife thinks the daisey design makes our female feel more femine. I cannot say. I bought the river design for the dogs at the pound. For the price, I recommend buying one for your pound and why not bring some treats as well. ;) |

| This is for the dog who likes to pull, or the Houdini dog who slips out of his/her collar! I have two of these collars, one from Ruffwear which paid full price for and another from Sierra. Ruffwear doesn't carry them any more so I was frantic and very pleased to find them here. The collar is so attractive and very well made. The chain is substantial and keeps its shine. The collar is adjustable in length but there is no buckle; it needs to be slipped over the head. I don't consider this a con but some might. |

Effective & elegant |

| I replaced my dog's harness with this collar. (Purple, with flower pattern) It looks beautiful on her. The chain is -not- noisy during everyday use. Effective for quick, mild correction and/or feedback (i.e., works as a choker chain); in fact, perhaps better than a standard choker chain because of the wider webbing (i.e., no gasping, coughing, choking dog). There is also an option to leash up without the choker, like a standard web collar. Good quality, as are many products by this brand. |

Excellent collar, tough and durable! |

| I've had such a time with my two year-old Cockaliers pulling and this collar has almost completely stopped that! The construction is smart and very durable, however I did purchase another four collars for down the road just in case I might find that I need them, as being close-outs I wanted to be sure I could continue to use this collar that works so very well. |

Great Training Collar |

| I've been raising Pugs for 10 years and find this collar to be one of the best products for training. With a gentle hand, and proper method, our Pugs respond to what this collar is used for. It should be removed when not in training as the chain part hangs just enough that it could get caught on something and cause injury. |

Excellent quality collars (I bought two) |

| Since we have just received these collars I cannot comment on durability, uses etc. We have two small dogs, a Jack Russel, 15 lbs. and a Schnauzer 20 lbs and the small size fits both very nicely. They are very attractive collars and appear to be even more durable than the collars they have been wearing for three years. |

I would suggest all dogs wear this type |

| The collar is more than we hoped for with excellent control and comfort built into one collar. We usually have to use a separate choke chain for walking but not anymore this is all in one. The only problem is we ordered large for our lab and large for our Aussie Shepard mix and the collar is too large. |

Comfort improves our outings! |

| I purchased the XL collar to replace a leather collar and choke chain combination. Surprisingly, my dog seemed immediately more comfortable. I have good control and she responds well. This appears to be well made and has road-tested well. I would definitely buy another one. I like the humane idea and it seems to resonate with the dog. |

Great invention |

| My little dog is only 12 lbs. but pulls on her leash when we go for walks. So we got a regular choke chain and she would choke herself pulling so hard. This collar is a nice because it keeps her in control, does not choke her and she can't pull out of it like a regular collar. |
