Turns my dogs neck black
I like the style and strength and looks of this chain but if you dog has a white collar then this chain will turn it gray looking like it is dirty. The chain is of poor quality . This chain should not make my dogs neck turn almost black.. If your animal has a dark coat it probably won't matter too much.I really like this chain except for the metal is of poor quality.

Show Chain is well worth the money
I have shown dogs for about 25 yrs and these are as good as any of the show chains you can buy at the dog shows. I love this chain... personally I like the 2.5 mm better just because it is a bit heavier and if you show larger breeds it gives you a little extra security if the dog happens to pull. The 2.0mm are great for training pups. Believe me I have now ordered 4 in different sizes and they are worth the money.

Beautiful collar!
I was hesitant to buy this collar based on some of the reviews but I am so glad that I did. I purchased the 2.0 mm 20" Serpentine Snake dog show chain collar. I am beyond pleased with it. I am currently showing a 6 month old Gordon setter puppy. This is a little big but it won't be for long. It's heavy enough that he knows it's there, I'm able to give the small corrections that I need without worrying about the chain holding up. It is classy enough for AKC shows. I paired it with a Resco show lead for a simple, classy and elegant look that disappears against the dog. The packaging was simple and effective with handwritten instructions from the seller about washing the collar prior to use. I plan on buying another one (can't have too many, never know when someone else will need to borrow one at a show).

Beautiful snake choke!
The last time I saw a snake like this was at a dog show, some 30 years ago, from a vendor selling German snake chokes! This is a top quality snake, and I love it! ....just as I did the beautiful snake choke of 30 years ago. This is not appropriate for a 6 month old, untrained, 150 lb Great Dane pup!! They will break! ....but if your dog is trained, and you want to be able to deliver a lightening fast, medium force, correction, this is the chain for you. The vendor's , packing, and timely delivery, and courtesy thank you note are a bonus!!

Good Quality
Use it to walk my Catahoula/Border Collie (40+lbs) mix. I like using these types of chains as they release much faster than the large link chains. The size was as ordered.

As expected
I have a dog with a short, smooth coat and anxiety. After trying a few types of collars our dog trainer recommended the loop chain style- the thinner the better. The thinnest one Petco had worked well, but would sometimes snag her coat when she got a correction, and the clacking noise of it frightened her. This chain is the thinnest I could find, and she hasn't been reacting to it at all, which is the point. Good stuff!

Great Chain
I wrote a review on the other sizes in this chain and I do know and have used many different chains but these are one of the best.... love these chains and I should know since I have shown for about 25 yrs.... Good luck

Pretty choker for dogs
I like it has I wanted a shoker that was not heavy. My Pit Bull has arthritis and I wanted someothing super light.It is strong for its thinness. I will never go back to thick shokers ever again. Plus its prettier.
