Blueberry Pet Soft & Safe 3M Reflective Jacquard Neoprene Padded Adjustable Dog Collar with Metal Buckle - Teal Blue, Neck 17-20.5", for Large Bre...

I love this collar. Has it all--strong metal buckle & tag ring, durable grommets, neoprene padding around throat, 3M reflective stitching. This is attractive & extremely durable. My 60# dog is a very active mountain dog, and her purple collar lasted 5 years (she's 6 now). It's been in the rivers, creeks, lakes, and sprinklers hundreds of times and the hardware never rusted. And the dirt washes out pretty well with liquid dish soap. It took 5 years of rough and tumble dog living for the metal buckle to break. I just replaced the collar with an orange one. I appreciate the addtion on the new collar of the 2 loops that secure the loose end...much needed. Hope this one lasts another 5 years! Thanks Blueberry :)

Quality product. Looks exactly like the picture. The inside had a nice long thick piece of padding. Im especially impressed with how reflective it is! Big bonus points!! Both the gray and white areas on the collar are extremely reflective!

These are beautiful, sturdy collars. I bought a small and medium for two dogs. Love the colors, the peacock and teal jade, that I bought. They are strong and padded all around. The padded feature was what drew me to the collars-less rubbing on the dog's necks. The diamond pattern is beautiful-very royal looking. It has reflectors that surround the diamond pattern. While I haven't seen this feature lit up yet as my dogs don't go outside in dark much, it's still a great thing to have especially when the days become shorter. Very pleased overall. It's a little pricey at $18.99 but it's extremely well made for that price!

The woven nylon is cushioned on the inside, thick and durable. The pattern and color are cute. The buckle is light and kind of flimsy, especially the part that sticks thru the hole. I feel like Im going to put the collar on my dog and that piece will be broken or just gone. It would have been a much better design to use the quick release durable plastic clips. The excess length of collar has no where to go, no ring to tuck into, so I had to cut it and cauterize the raw edge with a lighter. That worked fine. The name brand is HUGE on the collar. Ill probably remove it with my seam ripper one of these days. The one metal ring is large. Nice for clipping leash to it but theres no second smaller ring for tags, so they kinda get in the way when clipping on the leash.

I bought this collar for my 8 pound puppy with a neck that measures 9 inches. I found that utilizing the second to smallest hole on the collar provided the best fit leaving enough room for me to put two fingers inside of the collar loosely. I hesitated to cut off the surplus after reading some of the reviews about fraying and what have you, however there was too much and it was in the dogs face. Using tin snips, (this collar is substantial), I cut the end off just circling the hole located at the length desired so that the metal encircling the hole would prevent spreading. After cutting the collar I still have two more holes that I can utilize should the dog grow larger. I am not counting the hole near where I made the cut, for it is no longer functional. The collar exhibits no sign of fraying and now fits as desired. I know it sounds odd, but this 8 pound dog is powerful. The collars with the plastic clips would not hold her if she pulled against the leash. They would release allowing the dog to run free, (frightening in traffic). The metal buckle is a more suitable option for me. The dog is never tethered unattended and therefore not in danger of becoming suspended by the collar. I feel much better walking the dog knowing that the collar will not suddenly release. I hope this helps someone.
