Quick Release Collars

Up ]


QUICK RELEASE COLLARS are designed for the fastest and most efficient "on and off" of the collar
and often are used for boxing dogs at race meets.  The "alligator" quick release snap attaches to the collar's second ring
and may be "locked" in the closed position to ensure that your dog is not "released" unintentionally. 
In addition, the quick release snap may be left unlocked and, with a quick squeeze to the backend,
the "mouth" will open, freeing the collar and releasing the hound almost instantly. 

    

Locking Alligator Snap is opened by squeezing together the snap's ends. When locked, the snap cannot be opened.

Key Benefits

  • QUICK RELEASE SNAP ALLOWS FOR INSTANTANEOUS ON-OFF OF THE COLLAR
  • LOCKING FEATURE ENSURES THE SNAP REMAINS CLOSED AND THE COLLAR MAY BE USED AS ANY OTHER MARTINGALE
  • DESIGN ALLOWS FOR EASY ON - EASY OFF EITHER OVER THE HEAD OR BY UNSNAPPING
  • SECURE FITTING WITHOUT FEAR OF DISCOMFORT OR CHOKING WHEN DOG IS EXCITED AND PULLING 
  • NYLON-ONLY VERSIONS ARE ESPECIALLY DURABLE AND MACHINE WASHABLE
 

STEP TWO -- pick your collar's fabric accents

All of our collars can be made with patterned fabric or ribbon materials on the collar face to create a fun, humorous,
sophisticated, ornate, and/or polished appearance.  We believe that any of the jacquards and weaves listed on these pages
are
durable enough for frequent wear and machine washing; any ribbon incorporating metallic threads (ie: gold lame)
may be best utilized in collars worn only for walking or "dressing up" and may require special care when washing.
