Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this collar suitable for a puppy?

While adjustable, the 5cm width is best suited for medium to large breed puppies once they have reached a sufficient neck size. Monitor growth and adjust accordingly.

How do I clean the Combat® clip?

Wipe the clip with a damp cloth. Ensure it is dry afterward to prevent any potential corrosion of the metal components.

What is the main advantage of the 'Lighter' version?

The primary advantage is its significantly reduced weight compared to the original Combat® collars, offering enhanced comfort for the dog by minimizing bulk around the neck.

Can I attach a name tag to this collar?

Yes, you can attach a name tag to the Aluminium Alloy D-Loop alongside the leash.

What is the purpose of the double-stitched handle?

The handle is designed for close handling or emergency restraint, allowing the handler to maintain a secure grip on the dog when needed.

Is the Combat® clip safe for everyday use?

Yes, the Combat® clip is pressure-tested and engineered for security. It requires simultaneous pressing of both side levers to release, significantly reducing the risk of accidental opening during normal activities.

Troubleshooting

Collar seems too loose or too tight

Re-adjust the sliding buckles to achieve a custom fit. Ensure two fingers can comfortably slide between the collar and your dog's neck.

Clip is difficult to release

Ensure both side levers are being pressed simultaneously and evenly. If resistance persists, check for any debris obstructing the mechanism and clean if necessary.

Neoprene lining showing signs of wear

Inspect for significant fraying. Minor wear is normal, but if extensive, consider replacement. Clean as per care instructions to prolong lining life.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly lighter, reducing bulk and increasing comfort for the dog.
High durability due to triple-stitched nylon and robust hardware.
Secure clip system minimizes risk of accidental release.
Comfortable lining prevents chafing and irritation.
Integrated handle offers practical control options.
Suitable for a wide range of breeds due to adjustability.

Cons

May not be the primary choice for handlers needing the absolute heaviest collars for extreme tactical work.
The lightweight nature, while beneficial for comfort, might be perceived as less substantial by some users.
Requires deliberate action to unclip, which could be a minor inconvenience for quick removal if not familiar with the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Measure your dog's neck circumference to determine the appropriate size.
Adjust the collar using the sliding buckles to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure you can fit two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck.
Attach the leash to the Aluminium Alloy D-Loop.

Compatibility:

This collar is designed to be compatible with standard leash snap hooks. Its 5cm width makes it suitable for medium to large breeds with sufficient neck circumference. It is not recommended for very small breeds due to its size.

Care:

Clean the nylon webbing and neoprene lining with mild soap and water using a damp cloth.
Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely.
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Periodically check the D-loop, clip, and stitching for any signs of wear or damage.
The quick-drying neoprene lining helps minimize odour and maintain hygiene.
