add me to the leather crowd, I like the sturdyness and the comfort level especially for Maddie. And for me, I like the smell of leather
lol but I also like the look of it... It just looks well made and expensive even when its not, imho
I have sooo many fabric and ribbon collars, and I keep them in case I want to rotate them, but I never do
I prefer silver hardware (and decorations), just because of the color alone. But I'll do brass because sometimes its just lighter. My favorite leather color is rich, dark, natural brown. <3
lol
I won't go thicker than 3/4" for Maddie, and I like the buckle tapered.
Now, with Bailey, her everyday collar is rolled leather. She has 3 different colors (red, tan, and dark brown leather) but really you can't see them through the fur, and I hate a collar on her that messes up her fur. If we're going somewhere that someone else might have the potential of holding her or watching her for me, I put a martingale on her because she can slip her collars so easily.
