Greatest dog collars

Post by Skylace »

My husband got a huge box of items to review from a pet company called Bamboo.
Three of things we got in there are these awesome collars that have a build in leash that gives you easy control over the dog (especially when visitors are at the door), a great leash (lead) that has a built zipper pocket for you and seat belt buckle and a walking harness.
We only got one harness and we loved it so much that we went to PetSmart to get another one! They are just awesome. Here is a video link for the collar and leash and a link for the harness. I high recommend them as they tested great, they're durable and very handy!
This company also sent us some awesome toys that the dogs haven't even been able to eat through yet! :thumbs:

They are made by the same company that made the collars. These are two of the ones we got. It's the extreme ones that have worked the best. We got a few others but they have not done as well. We even gave one of the combat extreme ones to a friend of ours who has a rat terrier that destroys everything in an hour and it's still living! :o

We got small, medium and large. But I do know for sure they carry and extra large, so my guess is they would also carry an extra small. PetSmart carries the them but you can find out what other stores too.

Not to sound negative or anything but the dog seat belt struck me as being a bit wierd.

It looked like it would break the dogs neck or strangle it if there was a collision. I'm sure it's intention is to stop the dog from jumping around and hope there is some sort of release mechanism in the cas of an accident.

It connects to a harness, so the risk is actually quite minimal. The harness hooks on the back, not the collar.

You're welcome! And let me know what you find out. If anything I can see if that is something that can be put in the review or related to company for their consideration.

I'm with 6ULDV8 on this.... I have yet to find any toy that my dog doesn't destroy...... including these ones! Tried them a year or so ago as I was told that they were made of firehose and nearly indestructible. Well, less than 10 min later, he had chewed the black edging apart and got it stuck in his teeth like he was flossing. I'm seriously thinking that a piece of chain link might be the only thing that he won't chew through :)

I buy the girls a bone each a month... one of them HUGE buggers about the same size as my thigh bone with bigger joints on em...
& they need to be replaced after about 2 weeks as we have shards all over the house from them.

Toy wise, I did find one thing that they didn't kill in the first few moments.. it was a thick TIRE, about 7 inches across...
They didn't like it or play with it, so it survived...

Most other toys are done in seconds.. if it has a squaker it's done before it hits the floor.
