| Buddy Belts at Pet Valu? I went into Pet Valu and saw Buddy Belts (red and black) but they looked different than normal Buddy Belts. I can't remember now what it said, I want to say 'Buddy Belt 2' or something different, and they did not have 'BB' tags on them, they were branded on the actual leather. Just wondering what that was about. Looked to have Buddy the Dachshund on the tags.

It was probably a copycat of the Original Buddy Belt.. Was it something similar to this ? Choke Free Step-In Harness for Small Dogs | |

| Buddy Belt is coming out with the BB2, which is not made of leather. It will be available in limited colors. It does not have the stitching or details like the leather editions. May have been the BB2. Buddy Belt will not be releasing it to all retailers for a couple more months.

| Yes, the prices are lower because they are not made of leather and do not have the detailing. Quote:

I thought they were going to be priced lower, but maybe that has changed. Could be PetValu's pricing is higher. I have not seen the BB2 in person, but from photographs, my personal preference is the classic Buddy Belt.

| I agree if it's $40+ for vinyl, I wouldn't buy it. For vinyl it would have to be like $20 for me. |

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | I agree. If it is vinyl I would expect it to be cheaper then $42. You can get a leather one for that price.

| Wait...is the BB2 in fake leather? Or is it a whole other material? It seems weird that the BB would release a similar product, the only difference being the quality of the materials. Maybe there's some other advantage of the BB2?

| I found a press release online. It actually does seem that the only difference will be the synthetic leather..."Designed to appeal to a wider market". Bummer. I was hoping it was a a whole new BB product. http://superzoo.org/wp-content/uploa...-July-2013.pdf

| Next time I go to pet Valu, I'll take a pic. And re-check the price because I am not entirely sure.
