Herm Sprenger - Package of 3-2.25mm Black Stainless Steel Spike/Pinch/Prong Extra Link 50530

Great item, easily adds on to the collar

Work well for training.

Has stood the test of time with my Dalmatian and made his collar fit a little better.

The product works well with my 80+ lb Doberman and 63 lb pit bull. The dobie weaves so he needs an effective collar. I used the thicker stainless before, but this thinner collar works as well if not better. My sixth red male dobe. But beware. This is the 3rd collar I am buying, because the links are not as firm as the thick stainless and on several occasions have slipped open and collar has fallen off the dog. I am fortunate to be able to let him run free on the beach or walk and investigate and he lost his collar last night. Second time in two years . Fortunately he is well trained and responds to voice commands. But I am purchasing another anyway be cause I find the collar superior in every other way. My fingers are arthritic and this collar works better for me than the heavier ones. My 63 lb pit walks like a dream she wears the collar too. She doesnt need a prong but she thinks she’s a big deal when she has it on. Due to arthritis I only walk one at a time for safety reasons but they have the same size neck even though she can walk under the dobe.

I use prong collars on all of my puppies starting at four months. We do off leash work in the house until they get all of their vaccines, then we move outside where there is nothing but distractions. Lizards, bugs, ducks, great blue herons, dogs, neighbors, landlords, leaves falling, you know, distractions. I have been trained properly on how to use a prong collar and I do not recommend them to anyone who has not had experience or proper training. I found the black collar... so we had to get the black links. It all has to match. I am a girl after all. Anywho, Herm Springer is one of the best brands in prong collars. They last forever and are made with quality. The dog determines how long the collar is needed so I need something that will last. This current puppy is a complete heathen so I have a feeling we are going to be using this collar for a while. Good buy, good company, quality product. It's worth the extra money.
