Choosing A Burberry Dog Collar

By Aimee Schwartz


When selecting dog collars there are many factors to bear in mind, from functionality and appearance to cost and materials used. Collars are worn for many different reasons and the appropriate one is chosen to suit a particular purpose. It may be used for offering control, identification and maybe even for medical purposes. Many owners choose collars according to appearance too and a burberry dog collar offers exclusive style.

Burberry is a British luxury fashion house that makes many different products. They are well known for their iconic fabric, and although their current ranges do not include collars, they have inspired many others to produce similar items. These a sold online by a variety of different suppliers. Authentic collars are still available online too from sites like eBay.

The materials used for making these collars need to be considered when making a choice. However, size is probably the most important factor. Collars are inhumane if they do not fit correctly. Too snug and they are painful. If they are too loose, they may fall off. A general rule of thumb is that with a small breed, one should be able to fit a finger between collar and neck. For a medium breed, two fingers should fit and with a large breed, three fingers.

Whether collars are adjustable or not can also make a difference. On growing dogs, collars may quickly become too tight as they increase in size. The fact that some dogs have lots of hair should also be taken into account when determining fit. Collars that fit soon after a cut may not fit once the hair grows longer.

Collars also come in different widths, and the thicker ones offer more support than the thinner ones. They also tend to be more comfortable as they exert less pressure on the neck than thinner ones. However, smaller breeds may battle with wide collars as they tend to be much heavier.

There are many different types of collars suited for different purposes. However, the best choice for most purposes is collars with buckles. Leather or nylon is often used for such collars and the buckles are constructed of many different materials, from plastic to metal. Leather is long lasting and the oils in the skin make it softer the longer it is worn.

Collars are found that are more traditional, such as a plaid one in red, black and tan or a brown and red check. However, there are other styles that are more contemporary. A black, grey and pink check, for example, on a solid pink background is a modern choice. Tartans come in all colors, from red and green, to blue and black. Customization is also offered by some suppliers who make collars to order.

Budget, materials, functionality, and size are the main factors to consider when making such a purchase. The Comfort of the animal is of far more importance than appearance. However, as long as the fit is perfect, choices of colors and patterns is virtually unlimited.
