Frequently Asked Questions:

How tight should a dog collar be?

It is important to fit your dog collar properly. If the collar is too tight, it can result in hair-loss, skin irritation, airway compression and uncomfortable for your dog to wear. In contrast, too loose and your dog may slip the collar while walking or get their legs caught in the collar.

To ensure your collar fits properly, you should be able to fit two fingers underneath the collar. If you have a puppy, they will be growing rapidly the first 6 months of life. It is important to regularly check if your puppy's collar is still comfortable. Similarly, if your dog has gained weight or lost weight, it is important to check if the collar still fits properly and is comfortable to wear.
