Jamie Craig Webboard User Reg: 09-01-2009 Posts: 986 Loc: Munroe Falls, OH Offline	So a link on my pup's prong collar broke today (not a leerburg prong collar, freak thing the link just broke in half when a puppy jumped on him -without permission-, there wasn't even a leash on it. I think it just twisted funny.) I had some extra links but can only find one and the prong part of this particular link has a sharp edge. I've been sitting here with a dremel for the last half hour trying to grind it down but I'm not sure what metal this is...it's NOT grinding. I don't have any rasp tools or anything but is there any household item that will grind this down? Anyone else have this problem? Normally I'd use this as an excuse to replace the whole thing but he needs it so rarely it seems like a waste. https://www.etsy.com/shop/Blitzava

If you need a quick fix hit up your local pet store. You can get replace links. But, I would take a look at Leerburg's prongs including the fast release. Good stuff.
