Another thing I like about this collar, as compared to the ones I just sent back, is the size of the choker loop. The one I sent back had a huge loop, making it possible to seriously choke. This one, it seems smaller. It ends up tight on the neck, but not choking the "life out" of the poor dog :) I only needed this type of collar due to the fact my dogs (Standard Poodle, Giant Schnoodle and a Jack Russell) have smaller heads than they do necks. With a normal collar, if they back up while on lead, the collar can easily slip off. This collar fixes that problem. Awesome product, as the lifetime guarantee proves :) thank you amazon and Lupine!

This martingale-style collar is just what I was looking for. My dog is unable to slip out of it, which is the point. I hope that as it becomes more worn and softer, it will loosen more easily. After a few weeks of daily use, it is still stiff enough that ones the dog tugs so that the collar tightens, it will not release again. The color in the photo is a bit deceiving. The collar is a bright fuchsia leaning toward pink, with plum colored flowers. If I had realized just how very PINK this was, I would have selected a different color and style.Read Best Reviews of Lupine Designer Combo Dog Collar Here
We have two sneaky dogs that need martingale collars for different reasons.Sasha, 22lb, schnauzer mix she backs out of her collar if she wants to go somewhere else while she's on a walk. She can slip out of a harness so that won't work.
Rommel, 20lb, corgi mix he will chew any collar/harness he can reach. If he does get loose he is very hard to catch.
If you go to Petco or the like you can get a plain martingale collar that is an inch thick and not made for a smaller dog. Plus it has no style. These collars are stylish, they aren't one size fits all, plus they have the extra D-ring so it's just like a regular collar. I guess that's why they call it a combo collar. That is something I haven't seen with any other company.
And best of all, Lupine guarantees their collars and leashes even if they are chewed.The Lupine collars were highly recommended to us by the head of the Nat'l Bull Terrier Rescue. She said that they were much better than regular chokers and worked well for the stronger breeds. We bought one and were very impressed. It was comfortable for the dog but effective in pulling her back since it functions like a choke collar. We did have to manually release it a few times (as other reviewers have stated), though I wouldn't say that it was uncomfortably tight on her when it did "stick". The collars are very well made and clearly very sturdy. The design was really nice too. All told, I would buy Lupine collars again without hesitation!
