The one from Stillwater that you have... which one is it? I was looking at the ADBA show collars, but just wondering if that's what you're talking about that has held up so well for you?
I really want a rope lead too, they look so nice!

Just for fun here are some pics of some of my gear from EL & Stillwater.

My dorkface in her 1.5" show collar from Stillwater


Scout in her pink one that is the same as above


Modeling mountain rope lead and splitter from EL. Can't see them, but they were wearing their 1.5" stillwater show collars. i call them their "I'm not a wolf" collars, lol.


Lily in her "For Ella"


The floofy one in her custom "Gertrude's Son"/Working dog collar from EL.

Here are some pics of Sasha in her Stillwater Collar. We love it. Its made very well and its very sturdy. We like it a lot. I will definately buy from Stillwater again.

We got her the Bronson Show Collar

Wow I love all that stuff! I really like the split lead rope. That would be nice to have.
I am really in love with the lead rope type collars. I have some horse lead ropes, but they're too long and heavy to use as leashes lol. I think I will get him a Stillwater show collar first then get his EL one after Christmas. I babysit twice a week so all that extra little bit of money is going towards collars and food every month lol!

Diesel didn't even come with a leash! We only have one pet store in town that sells cheap quality ones, that I wouldn't both buying for the fear of Diesel snapping the little clippy. I take him outside on his yard cable and that hurts my hand to hold on to when he yanks forward!

Well its a splitter clipped to a Marri's lead. But they do have an option for a two dog lead on their site, its called the Katie's Lead. I just prefer the versatility of having seperate pieces.

I also have a couple slip leads that I adore for potty time because my yard isn't fenced. Freaking indispensible!

Ouch! I can't imagine using a tie-out cable for a leash! Thats no fun at all!

I love EL, they saved my butt when Scout escaped her kennel and ate all the dog equipment. I had one leash that escaped unscathed. They got me the new stuff I ordered in like 3 days. It was awesome.

Both Mako & Kuda wear Stillwaters as their daily collars. I have about 5 of 'em but they both wear the 3-Ply Heavy Duty Collars as their mains.



Definitely good collars for everyday wear and tear. I like the show collars, too (I have three of them -- one retired to holding the springpole up) but Kuda's nect is kinda too big for them to fit her right. Mako's gonna get those as hand-me-downs

I have no experience with collars from Ella's Lead YET but I actually have one getting made for Mako right now -- I'm sure it will be super durable, but it won't be his every day collar as Kuda likes to erm, grab his collar and bite it while they play around and I don't want her ruining his smancy collar ;P

another company to check out one day... http://bulldogsupplycompany.com/. I have a padded collar from them that I really like

I'm def. entering the Fabic contest for Collar Mania lol... I'm going to get into a lot of trouble with my husband if I get too into all these collars! I want so many!
I look at it this way... I NEVER go shopping the last time I went shopping I bought myself a pair of pink sweatpants from Bluenotes for $10 lol. That was 4 months ago. So if all my husband has to do is buy me a dog collar each month to keep me happy, he should consider himself a lucky man... right?

I mean common how many women can be kept happy by buying them a dog collar each month hahahaha!

Oh Mako is pretty much the exact same color and build as Diesel... and I LOVE that blue. Maybe I'll get him a 3ply in green :P I have the worst case of APBT puppy fever this week as well... ugh.

I have 4 stillwater collars, one blue show collar, one plain black collar and 2 seatbelt collars (black & yellow/blue)
I don't have an ella's lead collar (but 3 leashes LOL) but I do have a collar mania martingale slip collar.

I like them all A LOT but I would go with stillwater if you need a VERY solid collar that can hold up to any dog lol
