I’m giving full five stars because I literally love this collar brand - my only overall complaint is that I wish they did have maybe an 8”-14” inch size, as we have 5 dogs and this is one of the only reliable companies who has such a gorgeous selection of colors! So my littlest who is tiny can’t participate but that’s neither here or there. The silver buckle does become scratched, like literally anything else would over time. I never fully understood why that was a complaint or simple mention as I really don’t know what else someone would expect from a metal buckle and it’s not even noticeable or a lot. It’s beautiful and this company has never let me down and my dogs have never broken or slipped out of this brand collar. My Soi Dog in particular who is a meat trade rescue - I flew him from Bangkok in November 2020 and now its July and we must have gone through so many collars, he is of “primitive” bloodlines and primarily some type of hound - keeping him in a collar that won’t fail him literally means life or death, if these dogs escape they’re gone. It’s from their street dog instincts. I don’t use this collar with a leash, rather I have a martingale collar for my hound and harnesses for my 4 little dogs which I attach this leash to (matching). It’s cute! I love it.THE COLORS are just as pictured and described off the top of my head we have the two lighter pinks, the gold, coyote tan?, baby blue, mint blue.My Soi dog has a white/cream coat with a seeker beige stripe of coarser hair down his back. Similar color to a yellow lab maybe? But his body is shaped like a greyhound and his face looks like Anubis lol I hes currently wearing the baby blue and this dog runs like you wouldn’t believe outside in our yard, the collar is so clean still.Just be smart with choosing a collar for YOUR dog! I always suggest walking with a harness anyway as probably most poor collar reviews in general seem related to durability - but be smart! Can this realistically hold a 120lb huge dog by a simple leash? I have no idea, but I wouldn’t try that with any brand. That’s not a sellers fault, that’s a consumer fault. So as you read comments or make comments, think about that. My dogs Wear collars in the house should they ever loose, also chipped. I love to refresh all 5 of their collars and tags with the seasons and this is a brand that hasn’t failed me yet for a couple of years and with numerous dogs. Thank you again for another great product!I only write reviews by choice, obviously, if I feel strongly about a product. I think the size I got was the smallest? My dogs about 35 lbs, probably the same shape and size as a Whippet breed (but that’s not what he is). Awkward pic but all I can find with his new blue collar!
