You can either measure your dogs neck size, or their current collar size.
If measuring the neck, please make sure that the measurements provided are a snug fit around the circumference of your dogs neck. This will be the size that the thread is made to and the 2 finger gap under the collar will be accounted for with the addition of the buckle (3-4cm).
If you are taking the measurement from a collar already sized to fit, please measure it when laying flat and as straight as possible (not when done up/attached) from the inside end of one buckle clip (from where the fabric starts) to the inside end of the other.
The collar will be made according to the thread/fabric length measurement (not including buckle). Eg: if a 30cm measurement is provided, I will make the thread to this length and the total collar will be approx a 34cm once the buckle is taken into account.
See diagram below.
Because these collars aren't adjustable you will need to measure your dogs neck or collar size and send this through at the time of ordering. Unfortunately we cannot accept returns or refunds based on the size not being a correct fit. Please note that each collar is custom handmade specifically for your order but because of the nature of the thread and the knotting techniques sometimes small variations in the sizing can occur
If you have a dog who pulls on the lead when walking, depending on the thread you have chosen, some do already have a natural stretch and can stretch further when placed under pulling pressure. If you purchase a lead with a twist design, this can stretch more than a plain design due to the variation in the knotting patterns. Extensive pulling can result in the knotting pattern being stretched out of shape.
Because the items are made from cotton threads they can be washed. We recommend you carefully hand wash these in cool or luke warm water, leaving to soak if necessary. With ombré products, these may experience colour run when washed, be careful not to wash with other items and we recommend you place them to dry on a paper towel in case of additional dye run, out of direct sunlight. The fray on bandanas can be combed out to tidy.
As the hardware is metal it can scratch easily. If your dog is hard wearing on their products, this might be something to be mindful of.
The combination of thread and knotting techniques means the products are very robust and durable. They will have a small amount of natural stretch, however shouldn't stretch out of shape or size unless you intentionally pull them in a manner to do so, or they have an excessive amount of pulling ie: if you have a strong pulling dog on lead.
