Slip end of leather strap through both the attachment ring for the lead first and then through the other metal piece that secures the collar. Select the appropriate size and secure as usual.

I tried to find out as much information about these collars as possible. There is one school of thought that says do NOT get a quick release fastener if you have a strong/aggressive dog cuz it's possible for them to tug so hard that this release comes open. It surely makes putting the collar on and taking it off MUCH easier, I can say for sure. Look at some videos on YouTube for great information. Just measure the dogs neck for sizing. It's no problem to take some links out if it's too large. If you choose too small, you can order extra links as well. I've tried other collars and, believe me, this one has no competition.

Hi Jane, we have this model and it closes with a zipper. As for "tie downs" I'm not sure what you are referring to but there is an attached lead in the carriage that you can hook your dog's collar to. We don't use that. All that being said we have a 30lb pitbull/french bull dog and this fits her perfectly. So this may be smaller than it seems in the description.

The collar should extend past the nose at least an inch or more to ensure dog can't get to the affected area. Hope this helps.

The collar has a place on the back where you can fill the collar with air. When you want to deflate it, just pop open the cap to let the air out. It's that simple.

It's big enough to go over the pet's head, and it is adjustable. There is a small plastic clasp on the collar that resembles most pet collar clasps. I believe its the break away clasp so that the pet doesn't choke or get caught on anything.

The collar has a small lever that locks the base of the shell into place, the cutting end has a ring that is loosened by hex screws to set the length. Very easy to set up. I keep a perfectly lengthed case for each caliber I load for, place it in the trimmer for length, tighten the hex screws down and then run a case thru and check the results on the newly trimmed case.

The rivets I received were split down the middle such that when you spread them out, they stay in place. You can use a small set of pliars to spread them out. I would reccomend putting the smooth rivet head on the inside of the collar. If installed as the picture shows, the rivets may cause some irration to your animals neck.

You should have a plastic small green wrench that came with the collars, there are two different size hexigon holes and one should fit the doodad turn to losen doodad and will screw right back on tighten with wrench

I think you need the next size down. It's too big for your dog. Are you keeping this collar on your dog 24-7? I only use mine to walk the dog. It shouldn't fall off when you're walking your dog. If it does, it is definitely too large.

You choose the collar based off the length of the neck. My dog can still get to the base of her tail but only with her tongue. If the dog is desperate enough to get to it it'll endure the choking and pain of contorting their body to get to it but they won't be able to chew on it unless you put it on loosely. You have to stick it on very tightly, as in barely be able to slide 2 fingers in the neck part. It won't choke them or cut their air off by doing this either.

It is a little "backup" collar that the instructions say you should use, in addition to your pet's normal collar to prevent the dog from slipping both collars and getting loose. I personally don't use it, I never did so decades ago either. I use a harness with the flexi-lead these days.

It has a small collar. It doesn't go very high onto your neck. We waterski in high mountain reservoirs and own two different sizes of the suits. They work fine.

Charlene, I just saw this today. I apologize for the delay. If you don't mind waiting another day, I will check tonight to see how small these collars can be adjusted, and I will let you know. I am still at work right now. My dogs are considerably bigger than a min pin and the adjustment is as large as it goes. I will let you know how small it will go.

The dogs normal collar loops through it and connects so that it doesn't come off. I've never had it come off my dogs and have had to use it for 3 surgeries where it had to be worn for several weeks. I swear by this collar for comfort of my dogs.

Buy a stainless tag and secure it on a collar that doesn't hang loosely on the dog's neck. It sounds like the collar you're using is too loose

I'm sorry. I don't remember how long the collar was. I did have to cut a decent amount off for it to fit my hound
