Ruff doggie styles heart beat collar - collar by Ruff doggie styles - review by gwenevieve

I've had my eye on this pretty thing since my first day on this site. It's got hearts, it's got studs, it buckles, it's leather- there are few things the sub in me could want in a collar, to be honest. This collar is advertised as having a ring for leash play, I found that mine most certainly didn't and it seems that is a running theme through the reviews for it on this site, although I have seen a few lucky dogs on here get the ring on the collar as well as pink stitching, which I think looks much cuter than the plain black stitching on mine. But even with those discrepancies, I am in love with this.

This collar is adjustable and has over 6 different sizes to choose from. It is extremely wearable and I chose this collar for daily wear, and so far I am extremely pleased with it. Although there was no ring on mine to connect a leash to, it would be simple to put the leash through the buckle in the back, add one of your own if you're handy that way, or if you have a big enough clip, just clip the leash onto the collar itself. I was disappointed that mine didn't have the ring on it, but improv is something us kinky people are good at, so I made due with what I was given.

This is a rather petite collar, I wear it on the smallest hole, and I figure this could fit my husband's neck, but he's a pretty small man. So if you're a little bigger than average, unfortunately, I wouldn't suggest this collar for you.

This collar is pthalates-free, and comfortable, too. The heart details in this collar are set in the collar and are suede. This adds a very nice touch and is a very lovely detail that is extremely pleasant to the eye. The pyramid studs seem to be attached to the collar extremely well, and I've not been worried about hurting this collar once during use.

For cleaning, I would suggest wiping with a wet cloth only in dire circumstances. Since it's leather, it would be best to just try not to get this dirty, as leather can ruin when washed quite easily, and nobody wants to hurt this beautiful collar!

I still adore this collar and use it all the time. My husband thinks it is the sexiest thing ever, and so do my customers. I happen to agree 100%! It's so comfortable and fits me perfectly. I still wish there was a ring to attach a collar to it the right way, but that's okay- with a little creativity, anything is possible! It's really a shame that they discontinued this collar!
