"This is very durable and easy to use. With a dog that is moving around a lot the buckle is a life saver. With a black coat the black color looks like she doesn’t even have a prong collar on unless you look close enough."

β€” Jill

"It is too bulky and heavy for my dog."

Bottom Line

While the collar offers good durability and ease of use, the sizing issues and bulkiness make it a less than ideal choice for many dogs.
