Herm Sprenger Prong Collar for Border Collies - Blackened Stainless Steel (Small, 2.25 mm, Made in Germany)

Blackened Stainless Steel Prong Collar for Border Collies - Small, Fine Build

The most effective way to guide a smart, fast, sensitive breed, with a striking tactical black finish. This blackened stainless-steel prong collar for Border Collies uses a fine 2.25 mm prong and a 41 cm length - welded links are evenly spaced so that when your dog pulls, pressure spreads gently around the whole neck. Made in Germany by Herm Sprenger, in a rust-proof black finish.

Why This Collar Suits the Border Collie

The Border Collie is considered the smartest dog in the world - an agile, energetic herder with an exceptional ability to learn. It has a lighter, finer build than the larger working breeds, so it needs a smaller, gentler prong. The fine 2.25 mm prong suits the Border Collie's slim frame, giving clear, humane communication this sensitive, highly trainable dog understands instantly, without over-correcting. Pressure spread around the neck is gentler and safer than pulling on a flat collar.

Choosing the Right Size for a Border Collie

The Border Collie has a fine build with a neck typically 30-40 cm around. The 41 cm length with the fine 2.25 mm prong suits the breed's slim frame, and you can add or remove links for a precise fit. Measure the neck before ordering.

Safe Fit & Use

Never leave a dog unattended in a prong collar. Open the collar to put it on - don't pull it over the head. Fit it snug but not tight. The blackened model is not recommended for white-coated dogs (note that many Border Collies have white markings - avoid placing the collar over white fur).
