I have owned this for almost 1 year. Still in great shape and my black shepherd has worn it every day. Looks as good as day 1. Strong clasp and ring. Great reflective material which helps keep her safe as we walk on leash in our neighborhood at night. Gives me a sense of security if she would ever get away from me as black dogs cannot be seen easily even with car headlights. This collar's reflective property really makes her more noticeable! She has gotten many compliments on her pretty pink collar!
