Call Chuck Prather for the alpha collars that fit smaller dogs! You won't be sorry and they are worth it!

do you only run the collars on beagles? maybe cut it off and add holes

theres a thread on this a few months back that tells how to fix it by cutting the two rivets out and shortening the collar. If u do a search u might find it.

You don't need to cut two of them out.....you can just drill out the one furthest from the collar buckle....cut the lose "flap" created and then it closes up another 1/2" or so...that will duplicate the shorter collars guys are selling. ;)
