To be fair my mate preaches about not running dogs with collars on he reckons its a danger to the dog around hedges etc.....few of my pals use what they call gypsy slips which the collar releases when you let go of the choker leather. I still use a collar and slip though.

Another vote for SS.

Sure a collar can get caught up in a hedge but the chances of sommat fatal are slim. Dont forget how tough a dogs neck can be and how a sensible, seasoned mutt will adjust speed as it approaches and goes in on hedges. More chance of it loosing an eye or breaking its neck with a full on blow, both of which has happened to my dogs. Never had a hedge collar snagg.

 

I've seen those gypsy slips a few times mate, they are a crackin, little used gem.

Never learned how to do it though.

Good arent they, gona give my bigger bitch a go using one come start of the season. Ive always thought the risk is minimal.......but il be red faced if either of mine write themselves off due to a collar snag when im out thats for sure :/

I've got a couple of slips here that don't require a collar but I'm not sure if they are the gypsy slips you mention.

 

Will get a pic up.

Good quality leather,and get it nice and supple with neats foot oil. Biothane is a good second and should last longer than leather. I make my own leads collars..

If you click on the Hargreaves link then there's a photo of one on their site. It's called a quick release collar.
