Unique collars -
Gold, silver, platinum, and other precious metals can be added to the collar to make it unique, and you can also choose from many different materials for the collar itself, such as suede, leather, vinyl, and even cotton. You may also find Rhinestone Dog Collar, and semi-precious or precious stones which will add a very beautiful touch to the collar.
Gemstones such as zircons, rubies, crystals, and even diamonds are often used to create gorgeous and very original patterns and designs on the collars.
Crystals used to spell out a pet’s name on the collar are quickly becoming the most popular style of customized dog collar, for the obvious reason that it specifically personalizes the collar for any name, which is especially great for pet owners whose dogs have very rare names. Collars that are designed for your dog are good, because they are easily functional as a collar, and at the same time, they add beauty and charm to your dog’s collar.
Measuring your dog’s collar -
It’s very important that you have the proper measurement for your dog’s collar, as not all charts and general sizes (small, medium, large etc…) will fit your dog, since the collars are customized in the first place.
Dog’s collars are measured in inches, and most often the bigger the dog, the larger their collar, however this is not always the case, but keep the following chart in mind:
- Tiny dogs (ex. teacup), 8-9 inches
- small sized dogs, 10-14 inches
- Small/Medium dogs, 14-16in
- Medium dogs, 16 to 18 inches
- Larger dogs, 20 to 22 inches
- Very large dogs- 22-24 inches
The width of a dog collar is most often ½-1 inch, so you do not have to worry about finding a measurement for this, unless you prefer to have a collar which is wider, then you can just ask for the collar to be customized to suit your preference.
The 10-14 inch collars are most commonly used with dogs like Jack Russell Terriers, Shelties etc…because they have smaller necks. Dogs such as labs and retrievers can fall anywhere between 14-20inches which means they could have a small collar, or a large collar depending on their neck circumference, and this is why you should always measure your dog’s size to make sure that his/her collar can fit adequately.
