I got Lupine products as a last hope when my two puppies repeatedly chewed through collars, harnesses, and leashes. Since they had the replacement guarantee, even if the product is chewed by your own pet, I figured that while the product may not be made of steel like my puppies need, at least I might save some money. The products I ordered were so cute, fit well, and strong. My puppies' teeth were, as expected, stronger and I quickly was taking advantage of the guarantee. That's when I realized how wonderful the actual company is. The paper with my information did not make it into the package. After a quick email, they acknowledged having recieved it, put the replacements into the mail immediately, and gave us a recommendation for a product to treat the collars/harnesses with to prevent further chewing. They also said, if it gets chewed again, they'll gladly replace the products again. The company has been helpful, kind, and patient, and I will be buying many more products from them, and recommending them to everyone. No complaints whatsoever. Lupine is the best!

Wow. Just received the collars today. I ordered 3 altogether. One in the 1 inch size, and the other two in the smaller 3/4 inch size. They are beautiful. They lay well. Have two large D rings, one for the tags and one for the leash. This is very important, because if the tags are put on the leash D ring, it hangs funny at the choker loop, making it dangerous. I just returned 3 collars yday that lacked the second D ring.
Another thing I like about this collar, as compared to the ones I just sent back, is the size of the choker loop. The one I sent back had a huge loop, making it possible to seriously choke. This one, it seems smaller. It ends up tight on the neck, but not choking the "life out" of the poor dog :) I only needed this type of collar due to the fact my dogs (Standard Poodle, Giant Schnoodle and a Jack Russell) have smaller heads than they do necks. With a normal collar, if they back up while on lead, the collar can easily slip off. This collar fixes that problem. Awesome product, as the lifetime guarantee proves :) thank you amazon and Lupine!

The Lupine collars were highly recommended to us by the head of the Nat'l Bull Terrier Rescue. She said that they were much better than regular chokers and worked well for the stronger breeds. We bought one and were very impressed. It was comfortable for the dog but effective in pulling her back since it functions like a choke collar. We did have to manually release it a few times (as other reviewers have stated), though I wouldn't say that it was uncomfortably tight on her when it did "stick". The collars are very well made and clearly very sturdy. The design was really nice too. All told, I would buy Lupine collars again without hesitation!

We have two sneaky dogs that need martingale collars for different reasons.

Sasha, 22lb, schnauzer mix - she backs out of her collar if she wants to go somewhere else while she's on a walk. She can slip out of a harness so that won't work.

Rommel, 20lb, corgi mix - he will chew any collar/harness he can reach. If he does get loose he is very hard to catch.

If you go to Petco or the like you can get a plain martingale collar that is an inch thick and not made for a smaller dog. Plus it has no style. These collars are stylish, they aren't one size fits all, plus they have the extra D-ring so it's just like a regular collar. I guess that's why they call it a combo collar. That is something I haven't seen with any other company.

And best of all, Lupine guarantees their collars and leashes even if they are chewed.

Well, our rambunctious Grace loves this...takes pride in wearing it. It is sturdy, has the convenient two rings: one as a mild "choke collar", the other a normal leash connection ring. It has held up color and wear-wise for over 6 months now, and the absence of a buckle/latch is more reassuring that it won't break at that typical weak spot. Nice looking. We're very happy.

This martingale-style collar is just what I was looking for. My dog is unable to slip out of it, which is the point. I hope that as it becomes more worn and softer, it will loosen more easily. After a few weeks of daily use, it is still stiff enough that ones the dog tugs so that the collar tightens, it will not release again. The color in the photo is a bit deceiving. The collar is a bright fuchsia leaning toward pink, with plum colored flowers. If I had realized just how very PINK this was, I would have selected a different color and style.

I've been purchasing Lupine collars and leashes for years and the company is absolutely amazing. The designs are great and the collars are study. If your dog chews the collar or like my dog is just really hard on it they will replace it. If that's not customer service I don't know what it! The product arrived exactly as described and on time.

We love the Lupine Woofstock martingale dog collar! Very sturdy & cute, and it was delivered right on time.

my dog can tell when this collar is on. it seeems to work well. he can't slip her collar.

A nice heavy collar for our Sheltie, received about 4 days after it was ordered.
