Be certain to allow for some wiggle room on either side to allow for fluctuations in weight and/or fur. We are always here to help, so please reach out with any questions you may have.

TIPS FOR MEASURING:

When it comes to finding the perfect collar for your dog, getting the right size is essential. A collar that is too tight can be uncomfortable and restrict your dog's movement, while a collar that is too loose may slip off or pose a safety risk. To ensure a proper fit, follow these guidelines:

1. MEASURE YOUR DOG'S NECK

Using a flexible measuring tape, measure the circumference of your dog's neck. Make sure to measure at the base of the neck, where the collar will sit. There should always be enough room between the pet’s neck and the collar to slip one to two fingers between them comfortably. This ensures that the collar isn't too tight. Make a note of the measurement in inches or centimeters.

2. CONSIDER YOUR DOG'S GROWTH AND FUR

If your dog is still growing, it's best to choose a larger size to accommodate their future growth. Additionally, if your dog has a lot of fur around their neck or experiences weight fluctuations throughout the year, consider these factors when selecting a size.

3. IN BETWEEN SIZES?

If your dog's neck measurement falls in between two sizes, it's recommended to choose the larger size.

4. SIZE RANGE COLLARS (BUCKLE COLLARS)

For collars with a size range, it's best to choose the range where your dog's measurement is close to the middle. This allows for adjustments both up and down, providing a better fit.

5. FIXED-SIZE COLLARS

For fixed-size collars, it is very important to obtain an accurate measurement of your dog's neck where the collar is normally worn, as these collars are NOT adjustable. Take into consideration the thickness of the dog's fur to be certain you are getting an accurate measurement of the dog's neck.

Remember, a properly fitting collar should be snug enough to stay in place but not so tight as to cause discomfort or restrict your dog's movement. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your dog's collar fits comfortably and securely.

We want you to be confident that you have selected the right collar size for your dog. Do not place an order if you are unsure of the collar sizing. Please email us with any questions to info@vividcanine.com

Caring for Your BioThane® Gear:

Rinse with water and mild soap and dry with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains? Gently scrub with a soft brush.

Hardware Finishes:

Solid Brass: Develops a natural patina over time. Clean with mild soap and water regularly to minimize tarnishing.

Nickel Plated & Matte Black: Clean with mild soap and water. May show wear with use (This is normal and does not affect the integrity of the hardware).

Important Note: Please make sure to always thoroughly dry all hardware after use in any water, especially salt water. This will help to prevent the hardware from rusting.

We only use Genuine BioThane® on our gear. BioThane® is a Polymer-coated webbing. The Polymer coating makes this webbing a great leather alternative, as it is more durable, waterproof, and easy to clean. BioThane® rinses clean in seconds, will not mold or mildew, and will not absorb most common pet and outdoor odors. BioThane® is manufactured in the USA. Regular cleaning is recommended to keep your BioThane gear looking new.
