Please be mindful when customising the Combat Range, the adjuster may cover part of the text. The best way to help avoid this is to choose the smallest size which will fit your dog, as a result of this, the adjuster will be located at the end of the collar away from the name. Colours and fonts may change very slightly during production.

Size & fit

The stitching area on our XXS, XS and Small sizes is limited; we advise having a maximum of 5 characters and not adding an icon.

About personalisation

Important - Creating your unique look with our bespoke stitching/engraving quality could take us up to 7-10 working days to complete, it's well worth the wait though.

When customising the Combat Range, the adjuster may cover part of the text. The best way to help avoid this is to choose the smallest size which will fit your dog; the adjuster will then be located at the end of the collar away from the name.

Preview images are for illustration only, text and Icons will always be centered neatly on the product. Colours and fonts may change very slightly during production.

We offer personalisation option on almost all of our Collars, Leads and Harnesses. What are the key benefits of adding personalisation to your BullyBillows gear?

1. They're unique to you and your dog.

2. If you have multiple dogs, adding your dogs name can help to distinguish which collar is for which dog.

3. Adding a phone number and Social handle in the unfortunate event of your dog getting lost, this is a very powerful way to ensure your dog can be tracked back to you.

4. If you have a working dog, nervous dog or one who just loves to jump, you can enter names such as POLICE DOG, WARNING, DO NOT PET, NERVOUS etc.

Product description

Strength. Security. Everyday Performance.

Meet the Original BullyBillows 2.5cm Combat® Collar, the first of its kind in the world, designed for dependable performance on everyday walks and training sessions. Combining triple-stitched nylon, our bespoke Combat® clip and a robust stainless steel D-ring, this collar brings together durability, practical control and comfort in one trusted design.

Whether you're heading out for your daily walk or need a reliable collar for more demanding environments, the 2.5cm Combat® Collar is built to become an essential part of your dog's everyday kit.

Secure by Design
At the heart of the collar is our bespoke Combat® clip, designed to provide a secure connection and tested under pressure for added confidence. Its dual-lever locking mechanism requires both levers to be pressed simultaneously to open, helping reduce the risk of accidental release.

Combined with a 4mm stainless steel D-ring and triple-stitched nylon construction, it's designed to stand up to the demands of regular use.

Added Control When You Need It
The double-stitched emergency handle gives you a convenient way to guide your dog at close range when needed. Whether you're navigating busy areas or managing a situation that calls for closer handling, the integrated handle provides an additional point of contact.

Comfort Meets Durability
Built for everyday wear, the collar features a soft Neoprene-lined interior that's odourless and quick-drying. This comfortable lining helps reduce friction against your dog's fur, while the durable outer construction is designed to handle regular walks and adventures.

Adjustable for Your Dog
The adjustable nylon strap allows you to tailor the collar's fit to your dog. Simply adjust the strap using the metal adjuster to achieve a comfortable, secure fit, checking that the collar isn't too tight or too loose before use.

Trusted for Everyday Use
Designed for daily walks and training across a wide range of breeds, the Original 2.5cm Combat® Collar combines practical features with robust materials. Its design is also used by professional handlers, including those working with police, military and security dogs.

Customer photo review of 2.5cm Combat® Collar | With Handle & Rated Clip - Metal Grey

Feels nice and soft for human hands but also strong and tough too. The buckle feels it wouldnt come undone even if it was attached to a bulldozer lol. I will 100% be sizing up as my boy does. A beautiful touch with having the custom stitching available too. Love everything about this

I love the bully billows brand, it's always made to last. And as we compete in flyball the added grab handle is a welcome bonus as it gives me something to hang on to while Stella's psyched up before her run.

Customer photo review of 2.5cm Combat® Collar | With Handle & Rated Clip - Metal Grey

Perfect width for a frenchie I ordered the 4cm width originally but felt this was to thick especially for the smaller frenchie bulldog so sent them back and ordered this 2.5cm which is secure, strong, comfortable and perfect for them. Looks smart with the matching harnesses and lead. My Dogs don’t seem to be irritated at all by them like they usually are with other collars I have tried in the past. I Just love the quality, price and look of these pieces you will not be disappointed purchasing.

Customer photo review of 2.5cm Combat® Collar | With Handle & Rated Clip - Metal Grey v2.0

I don’t think my dog likes collars very much , this is the second he has . The first one was from pets at home and it caused him massive rash and that’s why we tried this bully billows one. He still doesn’t like it but his skin is very good and not red at all. I mostly use it when leaving the house and not indoors

Really easy to order and personalise. Great quality and perfect for our Doberman puppy. The clasp makes it easy to get on and off while being super secure. The handle on the collar is a great addition and we have found it really useful. Wouldn’t buy from anywhere else.

The inside of the grip was advertised as having rubber/padding on the inside, making it more comfortable for owner to hold. However, there is no grip on the inside when arrived. It doesnt make a big difference, but I feel it doesnt look as premium a product as displayed on the website.

The collar is really nice, well made and strong. I got my first one on sale in case it didn’t fit or wasn’t very good. It is brilliant. It’s so good I bought a full price one for my other dog. The delivery was quick and the product well packaged.

2.5cm Combat® Collar | With Handle & Rated Clip - Metal Grey

The handle is a little flimsy, sometimes when I have to grab it quick I miss. It sits pretty flat to the collar, it is sturdy enough to stay out making it harder to grab. Other than that I love this collar, I bought another without the handle and it is perfect!!

FAQs

What is the best dog collar?

The best dog collar really depends on the breed, size and activity level of your dog. Slip-on collars are great to assist training your dog that pulls, whereas a Combat collar is perfect for everyday use and comes in various thicknesses, from 2.5cm for smaller breeds to 5cm for XL breeds. Our pin buckle collars are also a great choice among medium to XL dog owners, and the Billowthane collar range is 100% waterproof, ideal for pooches who love water! Read more in our Collar Buying Guide to find the right collar for your dog.

How tight should a dog collar be?

Similar to harnesses, a dog collar should be snug but not too tight. We’d recommend being able to fit two fingers between the collar and your dog’s neck - if you can fit more than two fingers, the collar may be too loose and could slip off. If you can’t fit two fingers, it might be too tight for your dog causing discomfort and potentially breathing difficulties.

Do dogs have to wear collars?

It’s a legal requirement for dogs to wear collars with ID tags when in public. The tag needs to display your name and address to help reunite you and your dog if they ever get lost. We know that a lot of owners prefer using harnesses, but a collar and ID tag are essential to comply with UK law when you’re out in public, so make sure you’ve got both on if needs be.

How do you measure a dog collar?

To measure a dog collar, wrap a flexible measuring tape around the base (the lower sections) of your dog’s neck whilst leaving enough room to fit two fingers in between. A lot of collars are adjustable, which is ideal for a puppy as you can simply extend the collar as they grow into it.
