Personalized Tactical Collar
Sure you can give your dog a nice $10 collar from the Pet Store-or- you can give them a personalized and high quality collar from Tactipup! You can choose from their collar lineup that features a plastic buckle or go with their stronger version: Extreme metal buckle collars. If your dog is relaxed on a leash and isn't known for breaking equipment, this is a perfect option for you. You can also choose from the 1.5" Extreme Collar that features a metal buckle and gives you incredible strength and durability.
While these collar is great for working dogs, it's also great for restraining dogs who get a little too excited for visitors, passing cyclists, squirrels, or whatever makes them say ruff.
