Honestly though mate, they are the best working dog collars I have ever used. He`ll make you a few thin slip leads to use with them as well, for pennies. I use both sizes of lurcher collar. 3 Quote Link to post
jcm 2,326 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Them 2inch ones are about 5 layers thick there big and bulky more for staffs I'd say Quote Link to post
pencoed hunter 7 Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Ill ask him when i order one on friday ye might get a lead to go with it and slip leads got any pics of them mate? Quote Link to post
Rake aboot 4,929 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 The slips are simply lengths of flat webbing looped at both ends. Really simple, but work perfectly. I don`t have any leads from him. I use Rope spaniel leads, and Bellman and Flint leather collars and leads for when the dogs aren`t working. Quote Link to post

Looking at 2" on the tape dont look to big still got afew days to think about it before i go and buy one anyway Go for the 2" lurcher collar. I think they look smart. Them 50mm bull collars are well stiff, I got one for a mates boxer.... You could tow a car with it. Quote Link to post

You could tow a car with it.Towed a car with one of his leads and it didnt break and there only 3 ply , very much doubt any of his stuff would break under normal conditions , they are the best imo 1 Quote Link to post
benchick 42 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Id imagine strongstuff made the 2" more for the likes of the 29" and up bull xs I do like strongstuffs products but for the more traditional xs if you can call it that id go for a nice normal large lurcher collar from black dog trading maybe or something similar and personaly id NEVER EVERV run a dog with a collar if it catches on something at high speed you could be looking at some bad neck injurys Quote Link to post
benchick 42 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 And especially with a huge d ring on its even more likely to catch on something, for walking on a lead or for show yh fair enuff but seriously wouldnt slip a dog with that on Quote Link to post

I've never had any running dog get it's collar snagged up "at high speed" whatever the collar and those Strong Stuff collars would protect your dogs neck area very well against anything sharp Cheers, D.
