Best Dog Collars & Leads
There are many different types of collars, leads and harnesses, and it can be difficult to know which one is best for your dog. In this review, we’ll do the hard work for you with our recommendations of the best collars, leads and harnesses for your furry friend.
Best basic collar
This collar is not only secure but also stylish, with 10 different colour options, including purple, orange green camo, pink camo and bubble gum. It’s made from soft-touch nylon webbing which is comfortable and soft for your dog but also super strong. The stitching on the collar is reflective, meaning you and your four-legged mate can feel safer when going for a night time walk.
The best feature of this collar, however, are its double D-rings for leash attachment. By hooking your lead onto both rings, the only way your dog could get away would be if you let go of the lead! The EzyDog Double Up Dog Collar is available in 4 sizes, from small to extra large, and is covered by a one year warranty.
Added bonus – there’s an accessory D-ring for your stylish Bow Wow Meow pet tag!
