About the tester: Melody and 15-year-old Border Collie Koda enjoy walks together along their favourite beach.

About the product: The DOG Streamz Magnetic Dog Collar contains a continuous strip of StreamZ material, creating a series of unique low-frequency energy fields around the dog’s neck to offer a variety of benefits. The benefits of magnetic dog collars can include reducing inflammation and restoring circulation to the affected area. We also stock the human and equine range of these products.

What were your first impressions? “It is very flexible for a collar that has a magnet that runs all the way through it. It also feels tough and durable.”

How was the sizing and fit? “The collar is so easy to fit. I put it on Koda and left a fingers width between his neck and the collar, as the instructions suggest. Then you just cut off the excess. Easy peasy.”

How did you test the product? “Within 48 hours of Koda wearing the collar his mobility noticeably improved! He keeps the collar on 24/7 and his way of going is much more fluid. Koda cannot take any pain medication for his arthritis as it makes him ill and the collar has been a great alternative. He has his swagger back and is much more comfortable. We have even been able to take longer walks without him being sore afterwards.”

Any other comments? “I love that Koda has bounced back to life with no side effects. Since trialling the collar, Koda’s vet has given the go-ahead for him to start monthly Librela injections for his arthritis. He has no side affects and is able to continue wearing the collar. I have been amazed at the difference in him – he is even able to go back to his beloved beach which he found too challenging beforehand.”
