B.P.R 2,798 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Like others have said,there is enough bad press for us hunters without police checking what your doing and your stood with a dog saying f**k the ban on its collar, it doesnt give you a good head start really Better off buying a cosy dog coat that makes your dog look soft Police man nearly started laughing when we opened the back of the van and the whippets stood there in a fleece coat He just told us to close the door Although i dont know how a pink dog coat with a 'fcuk the ban' collar would pan out........

B.P.R 2,798 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Im ordering one tomorrow prob the best one iv seen around http://www.blackdogtrading.co.uk/avactis-images/001_5.JPG To be truthful.... After i replied to this thread, i went and got the collar in question and had a closer look at it....after about 8 months of daily use its showing the inevitable wear and tear... Holes in the strap are stretching a little... Few bits of stitching coming undone here and there.... Strap has stretched.... But its still very stiff.... Ive had a leather conditioner on it...but its not softened.... My ocd is getting the better of me and these little things are something i notice....and theyre doing my head in.... 8 quid a year aint bad at all....and its served me well. Ive got 2 nice leather numbers here....for 'best'and if they ever get their photo taken for crufts Ye cant beat leather for looks But i remember i had a leather collar on my lab x....that snapped completely near a road....and i had to use the lead to walk her home....not far.... (only remembered this yesterday...hence why i ordered ) ......but with my 'skittish' youngster here....i cant afford for the collar to give in on me when a truck passes....and i need controll of the dog...... So ive ordered my everyday, work and play collars from strongstuff. Edited March 1, 2013 by Blue Pocket Rocket 1 Quote Link to post
bryson 562 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 to much attention to be had by f**k the ban who is this actually being marketed at lol is it the young lads with no knowledge the feckers making these have no respect for the sport in my eyes Quote Link to post
Bosun11 537 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 The 'f**k the Ban' logo was used during the marches, and it was a bloody good slogan at that time. Time has passed. It's a novelty collar now, leave 'em be and get yourself sommat that works... Quote Link to post

RossM 7,979 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 I still have one leather collar purely sentimental value, my old bitches first "working" collar, it's got bits missing, and is a tatty old thing I won't be chucking it out, I won't be putting it on my dog right enough! It is just hung there beside my 4 soon to be seven SS collars. Quote Link to post
