Our chain martingale design in a thinner 20mm (3/4") wide Biothane collar! This is a chain martingale training collar, so please be aware it is a metal chain and can mark light furred animals (washes off easily) if left on. It is hand made with Genuine Biothane webbing with 3 choices of hardware in stainless steel, solid brass, or nickel plated - your choice. Please note: This is thinner but still a bit bulky, so not the best for tiny/small pups.
We also carry a different style two tone type of chain martingale in this width: through this link
Size of your collar:
It is adjustable, so I just need a neck measure.
Leave me a note at checkout if you would like the strap keeper in a different colour.
*special adjustment: just means I have to adjust the rivets and spacing to make the collar fit better, like the dark chocolate brown collar pictured.
All pictures here are just samples of what you will receive. Leashes sold separately.
Biothane the 'MAGIC' alternative to leather:
Beta Biothane is waterproof - easy to clean with soap and water.
It does NOT: mould, mildew, mark fur or absorb dog stink. The strong polyester webbing is coated in PVC giving the look, feel and suppleness of leather. We construct, design, photograph, and hand-make all items in Canada.

Materials and care
For Biothane:
Genuine Beta Biothane
solid brass or stainless steel hardware
end sealed in matching shade
rivets (either solid brass or nickel plate solid brass)
Cleaning is a snap! You can use soap and water for most dirt/salt water. Polish solid brass and stainless steel with a slurry made of white vinegar and baking soda (foamy but works great) and rinse off after. Even a disinfecting bleach dip (10%) is fine. Magic erasers work well for stubborn stains.
For Tartan ribbon or Nylon collars:
Genuine Tartan Ribbons from Scotland
strong nylon webbing
nickle plated hardware
thread for sewing
Cleaning of fabric type collars is usually done by hand or gentle cycle in the washing machine. Use gentle soap, no harsh chemicals. Let air dry fully.
Handcrafted with love, made to order just for you. No drop shipping involved.
Martingale, Chain Martingale- it's a pass-over-head style (tartans) or opens fully (Biothane); measure neck and largest part of head. Adjust to fit once on.
Side Release (also called quick release or side squeeze)- it opens fully, so just the neck size is needed to fit. Adjust the size then buckle around neck.
Breakaway- basically a side release that will pop open in any force is pulled on it. Mostly used in tag collars or cat collars.
Roller buckle (shoe buckle, belt style buckle)- opens fully, weave the end through the buckle and secure with tongue. Just need to have the neck size for it to fit, there is adjustment holes for sizes. We list size at the centre hole.
