Order our all plastic buckles or belt buckles to be safe if your dog has broken a side release buckle before. Or only use our side release metal buckle for id purposes. )

5. I prefer a belt buckle collar
Check out our leather + rubber collars with engraved nameplates! They use an always reliable belt buckle!
