Puppy collar

Details:

The puppy collar is the smallest and lightest collar in the Galgina collection. It is designed for puppies of smaller sighthound breeds (or other dogs of a similar size) get used to wearing a collar and to begin learning to walk on a leash. You can start using it as soon as your puppy arrives in their new home.

The collar is 2,5 cm wide and available in two predefined sizes suitable for Italian Greyhound and Whippet puppies. Because the sizes are fixed, no measurements are required when ordering, which makes the purchase easier for guardians who are still waiting for their puppy to arrive. The collar is safe to use even when the puppy is not under constant supervision, contains no plastic parts, and cannot accidentally come undone.

Available sizes:

  • Whippet: adjustment range between 20 and 33 cm
  • Italian Greyhound: adjustment range between 16 and 27 cm

It is difficult to predict exactly how long the puppy collar will fit a particular puppy. For most puppies, it remains suitable at least until around 6 months of age, while some can wear it all the way into adulthood. Guardians’ needs and preferences vary, and during a puppy’s growth phase, it is common to replace several collars; not only due to size changes, but also when transitioning to a different model, a wider collar, or other features.

If you are interested in the same collar model made to measure in other sizes or widths, you can find more information in the product description for the Non-Tightening Collar.

Fitting instructions

The simple collar design allows for quick and easy fitting:

  1. Use the adjustment slider to loosen the collar enough to slip it comfortably over your puppy’s head.
  2. Position the collar in the middle of the neck.
  3. Adjust the size so that you can comfortably fit two fingers between the collar and your puppy’s neck.
  4. Before removing the collar, loosen it again so it can be easily slipped back over the head.

The illustration of the dog’s head in the image below shows the opening through which the collar should be correctly placed over the head. If you are unsure whether the collar has been fitted correctly (for example, with a new collar or if it appears to sit oddly on your dog), fully loosen it to its maximum size. This makes it easier to identify the correct opening to slip over the head.

Materials and designs

The puppy collar is made with a strong nylon core that is fully covered with water-repellent fabric. The result is a collar that is compact enough to withstand the lively nature of puppies, while remaining easy to maintain and quick to dry.
