Collar width

I wasn't sure where to put this, so sorry if it's in the wrong place.

Buster snapped his collar last night so I need to buy him a new one. I was going to get a leather one, and I have found one on ebay I like. They do different widths, so was wondering what widths everyone has? I don't want one that is thin, but I didn't want to go too thick incase it looked funny.

I've always used a collar of about an inch & a half. The only leather one I've had was for showing, the evry day ones I get are these half check ones...

They do matching leads as well.

This is the collar we have for Rocky, its just a plain black leather collar and looks very smart.:

i bought memphis a leather one when he lost his ezdog webbing one a few months back and got to say im not a great fan and i am thinking of going back to ezdog webbing there really heavy duty and last really well

Tia is one in July and her collar is 25mm wide. She has another one which is 32mm and they look fine.

We have this one, in pink obviously lol!!

We use the soft half check collars as well. Sorry I dont have a link my better half does the shopping. More often we use a harness though.

I used to use his harness when out on walks, but with the dog training they prefere you to use the collar in lessons, so now I normally just use his collar. Most of the time he walks well on it, but need one that is fairly strong to cope with when he does pull - and training on the long line Now I'm all confused as to which sort to get. lol

I think these are really nice & look very strong as well.....

Does the training class insist on flat collars - some won't allow half checks.

I was just looking at the website When I used to take Tyson I had a half check, but that was a few years ago and it is a different trainer now so I'm not sure.

Why not phone the training centre and ask what they would recommend?

I have a multicoloured fabric one haha. I got it off amazon. Im surprised it hasnt bust yet actually..

I use strong stuff collars 1inch wide (stronger than leather) for walking Mazda Strong Stuff think few other members use his too.

and these soft collars in the house SOFT SBT COLLAR (when i remember to change them )

For Kodi he just has a leather puppy collar but will get a strong stuff one & soft one once hes bigger

Oooooo, I really like the strong stuff collars, I might message him in a minute. I brought a cheap one yesterday so I can walk him and it's not going to last long so need to order one asap. Thank you everyone for the replies and help
