"We have 4 dogs and they each have a couple of your ID collars, they are excellent collars (fit and clarity of the dog's information)! We run agility most weekends and the dogs can not wear tags in competition, so these collars insure they have ID on at all time while on the road or running. My only problem is the limited colors, I would really like to see you add Royal Purple to the list! I have recomended these collars to many friends, and given them as gifts."

Sadly disappointed, March 2, 2010
By: Pernilla from Dorset, UK

"I have ordered this collar before and been over the moon about the look and quality of it and would have recommended it to everyone. Sadly it turns out Orvis has changed the manufacturer of this product and now it's a flimsy plasticky piece of nylon, only adjustable from one side so the personal details are covered up by the buckle and it is sold for the same price as the previous great one. I still love the personalisation opton, but the collar is very disappointing and overpriced. Please let me know if you change back to your old manufacturer and I will be back as a customer."

Another great purchase, February 28, 2010
By: NMGal

"We bought two collars for our dogs who are country girls! The collars are very visible as they run through the forest. They are easy to read so my neighbors can call me when they are too far from home."

Great collar, February 25, 2010
By: Sdain31y from Savannah, GA

"We originally bought this collar in med. for our 6 mth old puppy. We love it - the name and number are very visible and easy to read. She's outgrowing it, so we ordered the same thing in the larger size. Its a little big on her right now, but we are still satisfied with the product. Looks great, dries quickly and still looks like new 6 mths later."

Orvis Value at its Best, February 25, 2010
By: hunny from Montgomery, AL

"This is the second collar I have bought of this type. It is functional and far more comforable for my dog than a typical "choke collar"."

"Orvis provides a convenient way of ensuring that you can be contacted should your dog wander off. I have used these collars for several years and the only reason we needed a new one is that we cancelled our land line phone number and now use our mobile phone. Hank's name and our phone number are clearly visible to anyone Hank comes in contact with and the collar is both durable and washable."

Pleasantly surprised, February 14, 2010
By: charlee from Fort Lauderdale, FL

"I ordered embroidered collars for our two weimaraners. They are more narrow than I expected but very sturdy and the names are easy to read. I thank the person who stated the collars run larger than expected and I ordered one size down and they fit well. I am very pleased !"

Color Choice, February 8, 2010
By: afco from Boston

"The blaze orange is a great color choice for fall and winter especially since it is hunting season. Our yard is fenced and Kaia is rarely out alone but you never know what could happen with gates. The gold letters with the orange worked well too because the gold blends with the orange until you get up close."

Perfect Collar, February 5, 2010
By: WiregrassBoy from North Florida

"We have had four of these collars in various colors and have been happy with each one. The fact that you can get very bright colors that are highly visible with a name and phone number on them are great features. The fact that the number was on the collar has been useful on atleast one occasion. These collars also withstand a good washing as well after long days in the dirt in mud."

The Perfect Gift for Dog Lovers, January 14, 2010
By: goldenrescue from New Mexico

"I purchased several of these personalized collars for Christams gift and everyone loved them. The dogs look so snazzy and the owners are constantly talking about them. I am the Southern New Mexico Golden Retriever Rescue Coordinator and in the very near future I will be ordering some collars for the organization.

The quality and price were great!"

Side Release collar, January 10, 2010
By: GiaC

"The old buckle release collar was wonderful...the new side release collar is misleading with its sizing...it runs very large...I am now going to have to send the collar back for the fourth time to try to get the right size and get the lettering to show too....the new collar is also much wider than the old collar....not as pleased with this new version."

Every dog's favorite gift, January 8, 2010
By: jcminbr from North Carolina

"While I have purchased these collars for many years for my own dogs, I decided to give them as gifts this Christmas. They all arrived in short order, and as requested, except one which had the phone number wrong. Orvis quickly replaced it with one that was perfect.

I do wish, though, that when the collar was slightly tightened that the buckle would NOT cover the name and phone Number. It happens on all 6 of the collars I bought this year."

Holds up to even the toughest dog!, January 7, 2010
By: ChesapeakeMom from Long Island NY

"I own a Chesapeake Bay Retriever he is over 90lbs and very active. He spends all summer in either the pool or salt water bays of Long Island. This collar takes all he can dish out. I just throw it in the wash and it looks as good as new. We hike in the wood every day & having my cell phone # on his collar makes me feel safe.If he was to wander away, I could be reached while looking for him.This is my 2nd CBR and my 4th collar. Nothing has ever happened to the collars, I just like the color change!"
