Collar Style Comparison


The three major styles of dog collars each have their own purpose.

Collar Styles - Most collars fit into 1 of the 3 categories below, although a few collars may be a hybrid of 2 or more styles.

Center Ring "Safety" Collars:
    This style collar is used when you are concerned about a hunting dog getting his collar hung on a tree limb or branch. The center ring allows the collar to flex in a way that the material would not naturally flex and the dog can back out of the collar if it is fitted loosely. It can also be used to fasten a leash to but it could be possible for the dog to back out and get loose if the collar is not tight enough.

    A center ring collar that has both a center ring and a "D" to hook a leash to is sometimes referred to as a "Double Ring Collar".



"D" End Collars:
    This style collar is a variation of the Standard Collar. The "D" comes before the buckle on this style. When used with a leash this is the most secure design since the dog actually pulls against 2 layers of collar. If a dog some how managed to pull the "D" loose from where it is attached to the collar material, he would still not be able to run loose. Best design for strong pulling dogs.

Standard Collars:



Buckle styles - Most collars fit into one of the 2 categories below, however a few models use a hybrid buckle that combines the roller and double buckles for the best of both worlds. We also carry several adjustable collars with quick release or cinch buckles.

Roller Buckles:
    Easy to put on and remove. These collars have a single sided buckle with a roller the allows the collar material to side easily through. Collars with this style buckle almost always have a keeper to prevent excess material from flapping.


Double Buckles:
    The collar material passes through the buckle twice for the most secure fastening. The double buckle actually acts as it's own keeper.


Either style buckle can be used with any style collar

If this is your first visit to Gun Dog Supply, welcome to our online Yahoo! Store. -- Way back in 1997, we got the idea to sell on the WWW after shopping on eBay and Amazon and buying through other online catalogs. It's so much easier to offer more information and content with an online catalogue, rather than a 72-page mail order brochure. Customers enjoy reading our info and articles where we share our opinions on our top-rated products.

From time to time we feature our top-selling products with promotional pricing or free shipping. Most of the time, most regular products are sold below manufacturers' suggested retail prices (MSRP). We sometimes offer wholesale pricing to qualified dealers on certain items and some offers are consumer only, no-dealer purchasing. Some people are more interested in choosing the cheapest, clearance-priced items such as overstock through an outlet dealer. Make sure your purchases are through an AUTHORIZED Internet dealer, especially for electronic canine products for warranty support issues.

Buyers save when you shop online. Why surf the Web for discount codes, online promo codes, and coupons when you know we have every day low prices? Your satisfaction with your purchases is important to us. We use the Yahoo! Store Rating system and our consumer reports are very good. We offer product recommendations and stand behind our recommended & reviewed products with our 30-Day Money Back Guarantee. Comparing prices is important, but when you find the lowest, discounted item, you may find other things, too. Savings may vary. Discounts and coupon prices subject to change without notice.
