Go on. Give it a tug. Remind your pet who's in charge.

I wanted a collar suitable for long-term wear, but I don’t like the aesthetic of having a lock hanging on your neck. This was my solution! The chain slides real nice when you pull on it, and it doesn’t raise too many eyebrows out in the real world.

One of the O-rings opens with set screws for semi-permanent wear; or it can be made with a spring-opening carabiner for quick access. I’ve worn one of these 24/7 for about 3 years now, to make sure that it was safe before I offered it for sale.

More photos on my Tumblr and Twitter. They are available over on my Etsy!

Stainless steel rings woven together in a chainmail pattern, with nickel-plated O-rings. I’m considering stocking this size of rings in colored anodized aluminum, let me know if that would be tempting for you.
