EXCELLENT ELITE SPANKERTactical Dog Collar Nylon Adjustable Training Collar Military Dog Collar Heavy Duty Metal Buckle with Control Handle for Medium and Large Dogs with Patches(COB-L)

I bought this collar for my husky. He is very strong and this collar has a handle on it that fits my large hand perfectly and it allows me to hold him securely. It is comfortable on him and I can control him better.

Our rescue dog is a puller and even escaped out of a slid leash but this collar with LIIIIIIKES Heavy Duty Dog Leash has really helped my wife when walking him. The handle has been great for her to redirect him when he starts getting anxious.

This collar is very durable and well made!I bought mine in a coyote brown size large. I absolutely love everything about it and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! It fits my belgian malinois perfectly! I hope this review helps!

I bought 2 Spanker Collars XL in Nov 2022 for my Rottweilers; one Coyote Brown the other Ranger Green. The Coyote Brown has a Stainless D-ring but the Ranger Green does not, it was coated in black paint and has since rusted. See photo. If you are worried about rusting D-Rings I would avoid all the collars except Coyote Brown. The advertising photos show black coated D-rings on the the other 3 collar colors.The collars themselves are well made and heavy duty, maybe just a bit heavy. Easy enough to adjust and tough enough for my big dogs.One other issue for me personally however is the attached control handle. I found it to be more of a problem than a benefit. Even when wrapped with the Velcro strap there was enough of an exposed loop of handle that kept catching on gate latches and even some cabinet knobs in the house. My male Rottweiler was napping near my office desk and when he got up he caught the loop of control handle on desk drawer. He was so surprised he almost dragged the dang desk attached to his neck out the of the house at a dead run. That's when we took out the razor blade and cut off the control handles.

Dependable collar that has held up on a 135 pound Mastiff. The giant breed likes to charge like a hooligan after other dogs. The leash would burn the skin off my fingers but a firm grasp on this collar and I can anchor his weight down to a stop. Whew and whoa doggie!!!

I purchased this Excellent Elite Spanker Tactical Dog Collar, size L, color RGN on January 6, 2018 for my male Belgian Malinois. He was about 65 lbs when I purchased this and now is 75 lbs and still wearing it.I like the idea of the quick release buckle and control handle. It’s easier to reach my dog’s neck height than a vest handle.It’s worked great for keeping him close to me when walking past people in tight spaces. I keep the leash short with one hand and have him heel so I can grip the collar handle with the other hand.This collar alone would not work for my dog as his neck is larger than his head and this slips right on or off with ease. We use a prong collar on top of this tactical collar and hook the leash to the two rings of the prong collar and the D-ring of this tactical collar. This collar helps keep the prong collar from sliding down to a (wrong) low-on-neck position and the prong collar helps this tactical collar from sliding up and off his head.During the summer of 2018, my dog ran into the lake a lot and I had to wash the collar (in a mesh laundry bag) multiple times a week to get rid of the mildewy stink. Air drying at that time took too long before we needed to put it back on him, so it went into the dryer a lot too. This faded the color. The black paint on the buckle and D-ring also scraped off from leash and tags.After 2018 summer ended, he didn’t get his collar wet often and the collar no longer smells bad.The Velcro along the outside of the collar works great for patches. I really like this feature. Our dog doesn’t do well with strangers approaching us so we like to have a warning visible to others.I’ve posted a review for the  Albcorp Reflective Patches with Hook Backing - “Do Not Pet”  that I purchased in both Medium and Large sizes. The medium fits on this collar as stated in that review. I’ve also recently purchased  EmbTao No Touch No Talk No Eye Contact embroidered badge  and placed it next to the other patch on this collar.Overall, I’m still happy with this purchase and still using it. It looks good on my dog and serves several practical purposes. 5 stars.Photos explanation:I've attached a photo of a  PS4 green camo controller  for color reference. Collar has been slightly worn (D ring paint gone but fabric still looked like new).The 3 photos of the collar (one with the new Stop patch and the new second pair of Albcorp patch and the pic of the buckle and D ring) is taken May 2019 with daily usage since purchase.The two photos of my dog outdoors on pavement were taken about a week after purchase without the patches added yet.The outdoor photo on grass was August 2018 with the first old set of Medium Albcorp patches attached.Albcorp Do Not Pet Patches review link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R3DJVPGOB6M8LV?ref=pf_ov_at_pdctrvw_srp

4 stars because I Am not a fan of the velcro usage, I did have to unexpectedly use this collar when my dog thought I was being threatened. The velcro didn't give up but I could hear it and I was basically using my hand to re enforce so the velcro didn't give.If you spend the time you can get the cobra buckle to provide enough fit even if the velcro goes, I still have the collar on my dogs. I would have rather had a traditional style adjustment system, I have Ray Allen harnesses for my dogs when we go outside they use velcro but in a way highly unlikely to come loss, I have literally carried my dog 100+ lbs by the handles of that harness and never worried about the velcro.

I really like this collar. It well made, easy on and off. Unfortunately it didn’t fit like I like on my dog and I returned. I would recommend to try it

El asa me hubiera gusta un poco más amplio para meter la mano con comodidad. Fuera de eso súper buen producto!

Excelente producto

Me gusta mucho este producto tengo una pitbull entonces lo huso cuando la amarro en el carro y vamos de viaje durable buena presentación me gustaría q el producto tuviera mas opciones

1歳のラブ22キロ用に買いました。ベルト巾が広いので少し窮屈に見えるけど、しっかりした作りで安心です。バックルも金属なので破損の心配はご無用です。大型犬にはオススメですよ。

Exelente collar y gran calidad
