ginga john 268 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 PM strong stuff, you'll never buy another set as you just can't wear em out, they don't rot either He does a couple of different types and they really are the mutts nuts Quote Link to post
hunt 30 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 (edited) The brass couples lads be warned will wear and if you don't notice you'll soon have a dOg to ground by accident steel couples are best if your using them regular as straining dogs can soon damage soft brass Edited June 26, 2011 by hunt Quote Link to post

dev 226 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I bought bellman ones a few months ago. The brass buttons have popped on 2 of the collars already and the season hasn't even started so they haven't got much use. To be honest they seemed very good quality but I've been dissapointed with them Quote Link to post
scent 509 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 i have SS couples ,good gear all i need now is 2 decent terriers to use them on 2 Quote Link to post
