Dog Collars and Leashes

Choosing the best collar size

Fitting suggestion: take a measurement around your dog's neck then add 2 inches (5.1 cm.). Use this number to order the correct collar size (see below) which you can then adjust as needed.

Imperial Sizing (inches)

Small: 8 to 12 inches long - 5/8 inch wide. Normally good for a dog weighing up to 21 lbs.
Medium: 11 to 17 inches long - 3/4 inch wide. Normally good for a dog weighing up to 50 lbs.
Large: 16 to 26 inches long - 1 inch wide. Normally good for a dog weighing up to 120 lbs.

Metric Sizing (centimeters)

Small: 20 to 30 cm. long. Normally good for a dog weighing up to 10 kg.
Medium: 28 to 43 cm. long. Normally good for a dog weighing up to 23 kg.

As with most quick-release collars, this collar is not recommended for tie-out (tying dog to a fixed object).

Many embellished dog collars on the market are made of nylon webbing with a design fabric sewn on top. Given the multi-layer construction and the water-retaining properties of nylon, this type of collar is prone to retaining moisture, dirt, and eventually, mold and mildew. Our dog collars are made of a single layer of polyester on which the design is permanently infused. Polyester is hydrophobic which means that it is water resistant. Many performance-wear garments are made of, or contain, polyester. Cleaning these collars is easy. One of our customers actually called it "self-cleaning."
