Strange question i know......
Winston is really into to swimming at the moment... and i took his collar off yesterday after his swim in the sea and it smelt really awful!!!
So i was thinking of getting him a waterproof one for his swim outtings!!
But do they smell - I will be washing them but i just thought i would ask.... as im sick of washing winnies collars all the time....and i was wondering if i could get it a quick wipe over once i take it off and then wash it less than his normal collars??
Does anyone have a Dublin Collar? Are they as good as they look??
The only thing I would guard against is if you have a Puller, as they can and do stretch.
Hands up in shame!! Winnie tries to pull!! Hes better on the lead with his dad - Knows mums a soft touch!! But we are working on it!!
Do you mean they will stretch and break or just stretchy??
I think one would come in handy!! Winnie is wearing an old collar today... its blue and my OH doesnt like it as hes an arsenal supporter!!! Men and their football Hey
We have just had 4 days in Eyemouth and Holly has been in the sea (BRRR) every day and no they definately do not smell, I am well impressed although as she pulls like mad we didn't use it for attatching her lead.
Do you mean they will stretch and break or just stretchy??
They stretch enough for the dog to be able to back out of the collar easily if it wants to.
My sister did have one snap but it sort of perished after about a year of continous wearing, by a dog who loves to wallow and roll in everything. I guess any collar would have given up the ghost after that sort of treatment .
I bought one for my collie as he loves to roll and I think it's great and it doesn't smell at all. If he rolls in fox poo and gets it on the collar I wash it with some ketchup (as I do him!) and then an antibacterial soap and it doesn't smell at all.
He's not really a puller but he wears a harness so I don't have to worry about it stretching but I gather they do.
I trying to order it but i think my interent isnt working!! as every time i try i get a page come up saying refresh etc!!
Ill try again in a little while!! Its so strange that i think more about Winnies collars than my own collars!
Mine aren't pullers 98% of the time but i always use a slip lead when they wear their dublin collars just to be on the safe side. I find them fab collars though
