Size 17.5 Black Leather Slip Dog Collar - Hand-Stitched Show Collar
This leather dog slip collar is made from premium, full-grain 8-10oz Wickett & Craig bridle leather. It is among the highest end vegetable tanned leathers in the world. Located in Curwensville, PA, USA, Wickett & Craig is known for quality, durability, and rich finishes. The leather is drum dyed in a range of finishes then hot stuffed with waxes making this leather smooth and flexible with a waxy texture on both sides. The leather breaks in quickly and gets even better with age.
The O-rings are high quality solid brass and the collar is hand-stitched using the traditional saddler's method with Ritza Tiger Thread in a color that coordinates with the leather. The edges are meticulously hand-painted with premium edge paint that matches the leather color making the edges round and smooth. The result is a beautiful, soft, and durable leather slip collar that will last a lifetime.
This slip collar is perfect for training and showing in conformation or obedience. This is not a collar to be used with dogs that pull because it is too thin and can damage their necks when used incorrectly. Please use this collar responsibly.

You can size down in width only if you need a collar to only hold tags, train or compete in obedience or confirmation, or if your dog is very well trained and does not pull during walks.
Sizing: This collar is designed to slide on and off of your dog's head.
