3 New Collars

Basenji Talk
  • Oh, and even though the chestnut collars show contrasting stitching, you can order them with matching stitching instead. The photo is just a mixture of the options available. Oh, and I have the price list (although I think he said he was increasing prices slightly after the New Year). Let me know if you want prices on anything else :D:D.

    I told him when I made my order that I was posting all this out here. :D:D

  • 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 :D 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 :D

    Yes, 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. :D :D :eek:

    I got a package from Bolduc yesterday with their invoice and it matches the numbers you've posted.

    Please post pics of your collars :D. I've seen a number of collars from companies overseas (that don't ship here) that I would have loved to order had they only shipped here.

  • 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 :D I try to do this this weekend so please be patient :D
    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!

    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.
  • New greyhound style collar working great!

    My b doesn't (usually) pull so I can't say for sure, but even at its tightest, the collar won't cut off air entirely. The tightness of the collar is limited; if you order one of the custom ones from Long Dog, you get to specify the smallest circumference of the collar. I would imagine a wide leather collar to be preferable to a thin nylon one for a puller, just because it won't chafe or cut into his neck as much.

    Janneke, maybe they will ship one to you? I know that WWW won't deal directly with owners, but maybe some of the vendors/stores that carry them will be willing to ship to you? Wizard, they usually use those collars for whippets and other sighthounds because the head is very narrow and not much bigger than the neck. Collars easily slip off so they often use a martingale style. Also they make them extra wide so they don't cut into the dog, it makes it more comfortable since they tend to have longer thin delicate necks. They're not heavily muscled like other breeds. And if they pull like Basenjis, it's good to have a wider collar to spread the pressure out! :) Less likely to damage the trachea.
  • Very nice collars

    Nick is very nice , he does this in his spare time , so if there is a delay in communication he is probably out on his hog . and will get back to you . the collars are excellent quality.
