"My dog used to have a collar that snapped together. Well, it broke. It was very hard to find a dog collar that fastened like a belt. However, Chewy had a few to choose from. I really like this Harry Barker dog collar that I got!"
"I purchased one of these collars, size medium, for my 65-pound husky mix. Within a few days, the rivets near the metal leash hook broke. Chewy sent me a replacement collar of the same type... within a few days that collar broke in the same fashion. I would not buy this collar for my dog ever !!"
