Common questions

How tight should a dog collar be?
Two-finger rule: you should be able to slide two fingers snugly between the collar and the neck. Too loose slips off; too tight causes rubbing.
What collar size for a Labrador?
Most adult Labs need 18–22 inch collars with a 1-inch width. Puppies grow through 2–3 sizes in the first year.
How often should I re-measure a puppy's collar?
Every 2–3 weeks until 6 months old, then monthly until a year.
