PetSafe Martingale Quick-Snap Dog Collar, Royal Blue, 1 in, Large

(He looks mad because I’m bothering his nap time) I got this collar because the shelter we had gotten my pup from was using this collar and we liked the buckle, martingale, and tag ring features. The shelter one is the red in what I presume is the size medium and the one I purchased is the blue in the size large (both have been adjusted to fit his neck). And both fit him perfect! I would definitely recommend the medium for all medium and some large dogs. And the large for any large dogs with either big necks or are just strong. The medium is a bit more bendable (could have gotten soft from wear) hence why I said it could work for large dogs but I’d say only for the more gentle and no pullers. It’s an amazing collar b/c it fulfills my personal wants for my pup and my pup’s needs. This new blue one feels very sturdy and could hold a strong dog and heavy puller. Although we had to tighten it nearly all the way for the large size to fit his neck, it still fits him and we decided on the large for the sturdiness since he’s a puller. The collar also is not heavy and the martingale feature makes the collar comfortable for my boy. Martingale collars are amazing for teaching your dogs not to pull and comfortable for the pup when they are not on a leash since it fits loosely around their necks (it won’t come off either). Update: the large ended up slipping off of his head a couple times and we had to return it and get a medium instead! Hopefully it doesn’t slip off

Love this collar

Sizing chart is way off. I ordered a large thinking it would fit my full grown lab perfectly and it ended up being way too big. Collar is unusable. Very disappointed. See update below! Update 9/19/16: The company worked with me and was able to provide me with a collar that fit. My dogs neck is 16" and the medium is perfect for him. I feel as though I got my money's worth with this collar and he hasn't been able to break free from it thus far. Very happy and will order more of these in the future if needed. Thank you so much PetSafe! Update 4/5/18: Collar lasted from Sept 2016 until February 2018. Before this collar, my dog broke about 10 collars in about 4 months. This one stood the test of time. Thank you petsafe!

I bought this for my Siberian Husky who tends to back out of her regular collar when walking from the house to the play yard and tries to run to the neighbor's property. It is high quality and I mainly purchased because it has the quick release snap on it should she become tangled or caught up while wearing it. It does seem to run fairly large though. I went off of the sizing of her regular collar and bought a Large but I should have gone with the Medium. My husband forgot and left the collar on her overnight and it was loose enough for her to pull off and chew up, even at its shortest length. Thankfully they aren't very expensive so this time I think I'll go with a Medium and that should fit her well enough that she won't be able to pull it up over head and take it off herself.

I love the PetSafe brand because I always know I'm going to get a quality item at a reasonable price. This Martingale Collar was no different. We have a new 10 month old Rottweiler who is already pushing 105 pounds. He's a big, powerful, doofus and is scared of his own shadow. So there are times when we would go on a walk and he would get scared (squirrel climbing tree, plastic bag blowing across yard...you get the idea) and try to back out of his collar to run back to the safety of home. Well, after reading some reviews, I decided to give this collar a try and could not be happier with my purchase. Simply put, these collars are life savers. Now, when my big scaredy-cat/dog gets startled and tries to back out, I don't have to worry about him escaping and running wild through our neighborhood. I took a picture of my dog trying to back out and being confused as to why he wasn't going anywhere, and even though the collar isn't visible, you can see how it functions (he's unable to back up any further). Also, as an aside, this product met all my expectations with regards to quality and craftsmanship. The weakest part of the whole collar is the plastic snap to open/close the collar. But that too is heavy-duty and after 3 months it's still going strong.

Our boxer keep slipping out of her collar when we held her. and when it was tight where she could not slip out it was too tight. We purchased this and it’s absolutely PERFECT. When we hold on to the loop on the collar it will tighten when needed but it’s loose when needed. It’s perfect!

I got a large hoping that I could make it small enough to fit on my 4 month old 35lb puppy and then he could grow into it. It was still a bit too big at 4 months but now at 5 months it fits and it will lengthen to fit him even once he's a full 80lbs. Its quite sturdy and has stood up to the inevitable chewing of a teething puppy with minimal damage. Overall I am quite happy with it.

I have a 102 pound dog with a long, slenderish neck (for his size) and he can back out or jump out of regular collar with ease. If you ever have had a dog like this, you know how scary this can be when you're walking outside anywhere the dog can bolt because dogs like this are usually really fast runners as well. I've had to bring my guy to a vet a few times recently and though he was fine the first time, the second he recognized the place and immediately jumped out of his collar and eyed the park across a busy street. I caught him in time but decided it was long overdue to get this kind of collar. I can see where people might say it's cruel, I used to think so too, but in reality what is cruel is the possibility of your pet getting frightened and hit by a car or lost or worse. I would only use this when we were are going somewhere, but I never used his regular collar in the house either. Dogs like mine have barrel chests (cross between great dane/greyhound) and so a harness type collar will not work, they do not make them that big. If you watch your dog carefully there is nothing wrong with a collar like this and might even save their life.

Well constructed for the stitching and I suspect it would hold up fairly well with use but the sizing is very wrong. Totally off. So either the measuring instructions are off, or the product was mislabeled. But according to the tags, it's correct. The thing is way too large even at its smallest fitting, so it's a no go for now. Perhaps later on, IF my dog grows into it. But I'm not sure how well or efficient this collar will be since the nylon webbing is so slippery and doesn't even hold well in the buckles.

Good collar. Would last a lifetime but it will fade and probably will want a new bright one someday.

This collar does not fit well as the piece that pulls tight is too long. It also is easily damaged by abrasion.

I really like it for training my dog .

Looks amazing. I have Great Danes so it has to be strong to hold them. Love it!
