BUDGET-FRIENDLY** 3/4" Wide BioThane® Dog Collar with Engraved Black Metal Buckle

**BUDGET-FRIENDLY COLLARS**
I started selling these collars at a reduced price because the buckles tend to scratch.  Some dogs can wear these collars for a long time, and it still looks great, whereas other dogs can scratch up the surface of the buckle so that the engraving becomes difficult to read.  It is a great bargain if you think your dog will not be rough on the buckle.  Since they are engraved and sold at a reduced price, I cannot accept returns or offer a replacement if the buckle does scratch, but please contact me about any issues with the order.

Accessorize your dog with this handmade 3/4” BioThane® collar with engraved metal quick release buckle.  The buckle is made of zinc with a matte black finish with your dog’s name and contact information.  Pair the buckle with one of 50 vibrant colors of 3/4” BioThane® webbing, eight colors of BioThane® webbing with reflective stripes, or 10 colorful geometric patterns that are UV-printed onto various solid colors of BioThane®.   BioThane® is a flexible, durable, easy-to-clean alternative to leather available in many colors.  The length is adjustable to allow for a perfect fit.  

To make sure the collar is sized properly, it is important to measure your dog's neck size before ordering. To measure your dog’s neck, you can either measure the length of your current collar or the circumference of your dog’s neck.  If you have questions about sizing, please send me a message.  I'm happy to help!

Engraving Note:  These buckles have a black coating/finish over the metal.  I use a fiber laser that chemically alters the surface of the black coating - it essentially bleaches or carbonizes the black finish in those specific areas.  This turns the engraved text a bright white/silver color that will not rub off or fade.  Because of the coating, I keep the engraving a precise shallow depth.  If I go too deep, the laser burns through the coating into the darker base material, and the text turns black again.  This is different from engraving on a silver or brass buckle, which can be deeper.

Hardware Note:  All quick-release buckles are thoroughly tested before shipping, but as with any hardware, rare failures can occur.  I stand behind every collar 100% and will replace any failed buckle at no cost.

Customer Responsibility:
Please inspect your collar upon receipt and check it regularly for wear. Ensure it fits properly and is appropriate for your dog’s size, activity level, and pulling strength. Quick-release buckles are convenient but may not be ideal for very strong pullers when the leash is attached directly to the collar.
