the eliminator collar - eok361 - 10-10-2023
this looks like a promising item, but isn't currently available. does anyone know if they went out of business???
anyone have one? i'd like to hear about its effectiveness. it looks promising, and i like the small strap in the back, instead of the whole collar effect.

I had one, and wore it out. Fit was an issue for me. I wish it was larger. It was a chore to put on every night. I had to buy from ebay when I bought. I couldn't find a Canadian supplier at the time. Made it expensive.

I got all of mine on Amazon. I just checked and they are currently unavailable. A similar item is the Dr. Dakota sleep collar. I couldn't find it either though. Basically the same design. You might catch a used one on ebay eventually. I have not seen it sold by any suppliers on the Supplier's list here. It feels a little more comfortable to me than a regular collar on the back of my neck because it is C shaped (and hollow in the back).

If you order one be careful of the size that you order. I could barely do mine up. I made up a strap extension so I could close it more easily. And I took a worn out sock and cut the toes off; slid that over the strap and the cushion was really comfortable. I should have taken more care when I found it to order on ebay years ago.
