PetSafe Cinch-It Collar, Large (Orange Peel)

This collar makes fitting an E-Collar on your dog so easy. I'm using a Dogtra collar and this collar fits it and holds any adjustments.

I got this collar because it was so easy to put on and adjust. I liked that it was a nice feeling rubbery plastic and came in fun colors. This collar is not exactly "Pet Safe" and not the collar for your dog if he pulls at all. We had the collar 3 months when our pup saw a flock of geese and chased towards them - and SNAP! - the collar broke and our dog was gone. Happily she came when I called her back, but I know it was a lucky day. Back to the leather buckle collar for us!

The collars themselves are very nice so I'm going to give them a good rating, but --WARNING--if you are planning to use with the Dogtra e-collar, you might want to think again. I had an extremely difficult -- I would say verging on impossible--time getting the Dogtra unit onto the collar. By the time it was on--pulling with pliers,etc,--the collar was pretty messed up, although still usable. The bigger problem came when I had to return the Dogtra units for repair/replacement.* GETTING THEM OFF THE COLLARS WAS A NIGHTMARE! My husband had to cut and poke and I don't know what else. Suffice it to say, I no longer have the collars because they had to be cut to bits. The collars are just too tight for the Dogtra. Again, nothing against the collar itself--I don't think they are ones promoting use with the Dogtra, although I'm not sure about that.

As I recall the collars--for the brief time I had them, the colors are bright and great and the way they lock on and off makes them a breeze to use. I like the fact that the excess length of the collar goes underneath, as opposed to flapping around on the outside like most collars. That gives them a nice, clean look. They seem to be very well made. Trust me--through all the pulling and cutting we ended up doing as a result of the Dogtra unit fitting too tightly, these collars are TOUGH!

*Also not a critique of Dogtra e-collars; I bought 2 and I think there was some confusion--perhaps on my part. The Dogtra company was very accommodating and easy to work with. Problem solved and I am pleased with the product.
