stealthy1 3,964 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 MK3m collars all the way, stuff pratting about taking the batteries out of the MK3's when you get home. Quote Link to post
auld salmon 28 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 go with the mk3m ones they fit snuggly under them i thought they looked big and clumsy butthere not Quote Link to post
Halfinch 51 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I use both, and haven't had any problems with either, but i would choose the mk3m because it is more waterproof and you don't have to remove the batteries after using it. Quote Link to post
Guest Magwitch Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I like the leather strap they are more secure and they are not as big as you think, these are quite small Pugs............ Quote Link to post

Richie10 345 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 My new collar arrived lastnight, seems good so far. The reciever will turn it of and on as per the instructions. Will try it at the weekend and see how we go. Quote Link to post
