Snap
Around Martingale Collar As Low
As $12.95
Adjustable, with Limited Slip feature that prevents the collar
from becoming too tight. Ideal for dogs who slip out of their
collars. Rather than being fitted over the head like a regular
Martingale Training Collar, this collar snaps around the neck
for a better fit without having to adjust.
Snap
Around Volhard Training Collar As
Low As $9.95
The Professional’s choice. Handmade nylon collar snaps
around dog’s neck for a more precise fit. Stays in place
and gives the handler better control for more effective teaching.
Used by world renowned instructors, and often referred to as
the "Volhard" collar.
(Made in 1" Graduated Sizes)
For Strong small breeds such as Jack Russell, Schnauzers, etc.
we recommend Stock number 1-143 (large rings, large trigger
or bolt snap) for dogs that fit into this size range.
The images below
demonstrate the proper way to measure your pet.
Follow the instructions below to properly use the Snap-Around
Training Collar.
The Snap-Around Training Collar is different from other training
products in that it is placed around the dogs neck as opposed
to being fitted "over the head" like other training
products (two ring training collars). This type of collar has
a snap on one end, a floating or loose ring, and a stationary
ring on the other end. The snap is attached to the floating
ring to be used as a training collar, and the lead is attached
to the stationary ring; thus, this collar allows a better fit,
and stays high up on the neck behind the ears. With proper fitting
this collar should not slide down the neck, but stay in this
position giving the handler better control for more effective
teaching. Do not leave the collar in training position
(snap attached to floating ring) on dog when not in training.
*** Please Note ***
This type of collar is very humane simply because of
where it sits on the dogs neck, above the trachea. Very little
effort is needed to use the Snap-Around Training Collar. We
do not promote any type of training that uses harsh pulling
or jerking the dog at any time. Only a slight
movement of the wrist is all that is needed to get
the dogs attention back on you.
Use Lots of Praise When Training!
This collar will not harm the coat as opposed to chain collars.
They can be washed in lukewarm water and detergent. Pull back
to size while wet.
The way we measure the finished product after hand making the
Snap-Around Training Collar is by laying the collar flat- straight
out- with the stationary ring on the left side, and the snap
on the right side. Measure from where the fabric starts on the
stationary ring side all the way to the tip of the snap on the
other end. We include the fabric and snap only. The
stationary ring is not included in the measurement.
When measuring your dog for a Snap-Around Training Collar, place
your dog in a standing position. Measure under the chin, around
the neck, and then up behind the ears. You want a Snug
fit, but not choking. Add an extra 1" for long
coated dogs to the measurement obtained.
If you are ordering a Snap-Around Training Collar for a puppy
(not an Adjustable Snap-Around), add 2" larger to allow
for growth.
*** Remember, when placing your order for the Snap-Around Training
Collar- that an exact measurement is needed.
Please do not forget to choose your dogs collar
size in the drop down box below labeled Size of Collar.
Collars are made with either a Bolt snap or a Trigger
snap. Please specify the type of snap you would like.

Snap-Around Training Collar on your dog.
