• A Positive First Introduction: Introducing the New Collar to a Puppy
Create Positive Associations: Let your puppy get acquainted with the scent of the collar first. When it sniffs the collar, immediately give it a treat and praise. Our goal is for your puppy to understand that the appearance of the collar always means good things are about to happen.
Short and Sweet Sessions: Put the collar on for brief periods during enjoyable activities like playing or feeding. Take it off after a few minutes and reward your puppy again. Keep the process light and positive; never force it.
Gradual Progress: Over the next few days, gradually increase the wearing time. A secure adult dog begins with a patient and encouraging puppyhood.
• Achieving the Perfect Fit: The "Two-Finger Rule"
A perfectly fitted collar is the cornerstone of safety and comfort.
How to Measure: After putting the collar on your dog, you should be able to smoothly slide two fingers between the collar and its neck. This ensures the collar is not too tight to cause pressure, nor too loose to slip off accidentally.
Check Regularly: Puppies grow quickly, so please check the collar's fit weekly. For breeds with thick, double coats, readjust the collar after shedding season to accommodate the change in fur volume.
• Responsible Wear: Safety Notice for Unsupervised Times
This is our most important advice as "Pet Safety Designers":
Safety First, Remove When Appropriate: To ensure your dog's utmost safety, our advice aligns with that of veterinarians and professional trainers worldwide: Always remove any non-breakaway collar when your dog is unsupervised (especially in a crate, alone in the yard, or playing with other dogs).
Why? Because there is a slight possibility that the collar or its tags could get caught on an object, creating a hazard if the dog struggles.
• Keeping it Like New: Cleaning and Maintenance Guide
Routine Cleaning: Hand wash the collar with warm water and mild soap, using a soft brush (an old toothbrush works well) to gently scrub. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and hang it in a well-ventilated area to air dry.
Deep Deodorizing: For stubborn odors, make a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to the collar, let it dry, then brush it off and rinse.
Waterproof Coated Collars: Cleaning is extremely simple; just rinse under a tap or wipe with a damp cloth.
About Black Residue from Metal Parts: You might notice some black residue where the metal hardware contacts the fur. Rest assured, this is not a quality issue. It is a natural "polishing" reaction between the natural oils in your dog's coat and the anodized aluminum hardware, which is completely harmless to you and your dog. It can be easily wiped clean using the baking soda paste method described above.
Q: What kind of dogs is this collar suitable for?
A: This collar comes in three adjustable sizes, covering neck circumferences from 22 cm to 74 cm (8.7”–29.1”), making it suitable for most dog breeds. Made from hypoallergenic webbing and lightweight alloy hardware, it’s soft, skin-friendly, and comfortable for everyday wear.
Q: How do I measure my dog’s neck circumference?
A: Use a soft measuring tape to wrap around the base of your dog’s neck, where the collar would naturally sit. Make sure it’s snug but not tight—ideally, you should be able to fit two fingers between the tape and your dog’s neck.
Q: What if my dog’s measurement falls between two sizes?
A: If your dog’s neck size falls between two sizes, choose the smaller size for a snug fit or the larger size for a looser, more relaxed fit.
