    if you couldnt see them well enough here are a few more pics….LOL.....

    the one big is to show the 3 sizes, the red ones are puppy safety chokes. the med ones are the standard ones for basenjis, and the large are used with whippets or in Caesar's case a nice long neck. LOL

    The green one is super old and beta was a chewer. She actually ate one of these collars completely(including tags) and passed it in pieces! That was right after I bought it and her first collar experience....

    the solution with chewers is to keep it tighter. the med yellow one was hers and she never chewed on that one.

    LOL, yeah I know, crazy right?
    Well, in that big picture the two middle sized ones that are dark blue and green are so beat up that I dont use them anymore. They are hard to throw away though. I use them sometimes when we go to the wet dog park.

    The two big ones are with ribbon that i sent to him. You can see the light blue one is a bit tattered compared to the yellow which is my fault in choosing something not durable…..but it is sooooo much fun to go to Joanne's fabric and pick out something cool for your b.

    They are soooo cheap!

    oh yeah, and the puppy one fits Cairo like a champ. He was introduced to it this past weekend and hasnt tried to eat it yet. We went for our first collar leash walk yesterday and it tightened at the perfect place that didnt choke him. I was very pleased with the size…...

    I definately do not leave it on him in the kennel yet, or Caesar's. Beta ate off Caesar's safety choke once....learned my lesson...and Cairo is such a chewer right now....

    Is this Nick Russell of MastersPride?

    If so, we have a leather collar that does not slip down the neck and works well with them pulling. I put it high on the neck and Talker and Savannah will stop.

    But these collars that you posted the pixs looks really nice. Do you have the website?

Walks around the neighborhood and trips to the dog park are going to be very much fun... Friendly neighbor: Oh, she's so cute! What kind of dog is she? You: Thanks you so much. Why, she's a Staffy Chow Lab Rott Russell Husky. (Ya haff ta memorize that) :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :thumbs_up: Thanks a bunch for letting us know. Very much enjoyed your thread.

    I read your blog and find it kind of confusing and ….. your comment about "messing with ..." hmmmmmmm.... Anyhow, yes, it is so cool when you come across another basenji, because they totally understand each other and how they want to play. We were fortunate once to have another basenji play chase with Kipawa at a dog park. I just don't think there are many basenjis in the Lower Mainland. :(

    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.

    rockinmommy-we got fleece lined collars at ALL HOUNDS. I like their policy. If your dog chews up his collar they replace it for free :D Check it out! http://www.allhoundsapparel.com And the lady majestic martingale collars uses satin to line her collars…aahh soft :) http://www.majesticcollars.com Good luck!
