"Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family, friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?" Federico Calboli

Spiked collars
We're going to experiment with a variety of spiked collars on our livestock protection dogs, but these leather collars we had made locally are a good start in protecting dogs during a wolf attack. We saw various versions of the leather collars used in Spain. For livestock producers who want to give them a try, saddlemaker Clark Weber of Rock Springs, Wyoming is the man to talk to. His cell number is 307-350-5408 and his email is mudtwo at hotmail dot com.
Clark made these two collars for our dogs based on the measurements we specified. They are 2 1/2 inches wide, and adjust from 22 to 26 inches.

Cat, scary looking collars but I understand the need. Do you not worry about the dog getting stuck in brush and/or hanging itself? Mary Ann
Wicked! I can't imagine they wouldn't do the job. I always said if my guardians had anything to fight off bigger than a coyote, I'd put spiked collars on them. Keep us updated on how they work. Do they bother the dogs when they are laying their head down? What about when the dogs play - I often notice, especially with youngsters, they chew on each other's neck. I suppose the answer to that will be they only do it once!
