I've noticed that a few of the dogs on here have bright orange collars on and they seem to have something on them. What are they please?
A lot of us probably have orange collars, due to being hunting dogs. Over here, upland bird hunters have to wear an orange item, and for visability and safety--a lot of us outfit our dogs in orange too. You don't want some over anxious hunter to mistake your dog for a coyote, deer, etc. I like to get the plastic coated nylon collars, because they stay so clean. And then I get the brass name tag riveted on, as it's the best name tag I've found that will not come off of the collar.
As was already posted they are hunting collars with name plates. Here is a link so you can see one. They also have a center ring which allows the dog to escape the collar if he gets hung up on brush.

Allot of them also have on ecollars with bright orange collars.
Hunters orange! I have a bright orange collar for dieter but i do not hunt him. I just love the look of liver and orange. Hes also had blue, red, black..but orange is my favorite
If you do not have access to the orange safety collars in your area and you want one, post your shipping address or email me and I will send you one for your GSP. Here is my email address jstewart1013@yahoo.com
I've recently seen some neon hunter orange collars with round things attached that turned out to be nightlights. Just twist them and they turn on. Very clever. Not sure where to purchase them.
