Don't worry about offending me with a hijack because I'm interested in any and all conversations about the practial situations of the collars. It all influences my final decision.

I had a friend modify a collar a few years ago in a very different way: She spliced a section of leather/biothane, where the unit was to be attached, to a couple pieces of fursaver collar that was then clipped around the dog's neck. The idea was to reduce the dog's becoming collar-wise. Since this e-collar unit couldn't slip over the dog's neck like a standard fursaver, she also made a regular fursaver collar that also clipped around the dog's neck, keeping the application the same.

I don't know how it all worked for her in the end, but it was a interesting idea.
