Size chart

A collar that doesn't fit isn't just uncomfortable — it's unsafe. Too tight, you've got a choking hazard. Too loose, you've got a dog that's slipped the lead. We've been making collars in Colorado since 1995, and we've seen every shape and size of dog walk through our shop. Use this guide to find the right neck size for your breed, then double-check by measuring.

How to measure your dog's neck

Use a soft tape measure (or a piece of string and a ruler).
Wrap it around the middle of your dog's neck — where the collar will sit.
Snug, but not tight. Two fingers should fit comfortably between the tape and your dog's neck.
Write that number down. That's your neck size in inches.
When choosing a collar, pick a size where your measurement falls in the middle of the range — not the very end.

Size by breed

These are starting points. Every dog is an individual — measure to confirm.

Toy & Tiny Breeds (Neck: 8"–12")

Chihuahua
Yorkshire Terrier
Pomeranian
Maltese
Toy Poodle
Papillon

Recommended width: 1/2" or 5/8". Anything wider overwhelms a small neck.

Small Breeds (Neck: 10"–14")

Dachshund
Jack Russell Terrier
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Boston Terrier
Miniature Schnauzer
Shih Tzu
French Bulldog (small)

Recommended width: 5/8" or 3/4".

Medium Breeds (Neck: 13"–18")

Beagle
Border Collie
Cocker Spaniel
Australian Shepherd
English Bulldog
Brittany
Whippet

Recommended width: 3/4" or 1".

Large Breeds (Neck: 16"–22")

Labrador Retriever
Golden Retriever
German Shepherd
Vizsla
Boxer
Pointer
Husky
Doberman
Rhodesian Ridgeback

Recommended width: 1" or 1-1/4". For pullers, consider a martingale.

Giant Breeds (Neck: 20"–28"+)

Great Dane
Mastiff (English, Bull, Cane Corso)
Saint Bernard
Newfoundland
Rottweiler
Bernese Mountain Dog
Anatolian Shepherd
Great Pyrenees

Recommended width: 1-1/4" or 1-1/2". A wider collar distributes pressure across a powerful neck and looks proportional. See our For Big Dogs collection.

A few tips from our workshop

Puppies grow fast. If your puppy's neck is between sizes, size up — they'll grow into it. Adjustable collars give you 3–4 inches of room.
Coat type matters. Double-coated breeds (Huskies, Goldens, Bernese) measure larger when their winter coat is in. Re-measure seasonally.
The two-finger rule isn't optional. A collar that's too tight can damage the trachea. Too loose and a determined dog will back out of it.
Leather stretches a little. Our full-grain American leather will give about 1/4" with regular wear. Climbing-grade nylon rope and waterproof PVC-coated nylon hold their size.
Hardware matters as much as fit. Every collar we make uses European steel D-rings and Japanese YKK polyacetal buckles — the parts that actually have to hold under load.

Still not sure?

Send us your dog's neck measurement and breed and we'll point you to the right collar. We've been doing this since 1995, and every collar we ship is backed by our 1-Year Guarantee with no fine print.

1-Year Guarantee: no fine print

Built for working dogs and the people who actually use their gear.

Why we built it this way

The Pro Line is the collar we make for hunters, handlers, and anyone whose dog earns its dinner. Full-grain American leather, solid-brass D-ring welded closed, and saddle-stitched ends that won't blow apart when your dog hits the end of a check cord. Sized from a 9-inch puppy neck up to a 25-inch Newfie — and the leather width scales with the size, so a Beagle isn't carrying a strap meant for a Saint Bernard.

The hardware

Solid brass D-ring, welded closed and tumbled smooth. Brass doesn't rust, doesn't freeze in winter, and develops a patina that looks better with age. Roller buckle with a heavy brass tongue — the kind your grandfather's tack room had. No stamped steel, no plated junk.

What's in it

Full-grain American leather, vegetable-tanned

Solid-brass roller buckle and welded D-ring

Saddle-stitched ends with waxed thread

Width scales with size: 5/8" (XS-S), 3/4" (M), 1" (L), 1 1/4" (XL), 1 3/8" (XXL)

Made in Denver, Colorado by the same small team since 1995

Sizing

XS: 5/8" wide, 9-12" neck

S: 5/8" wide, 12-15" neck

M: 3/4" wide, 13-17" neck

L: 1" wide, 14-19" neck

XL: 1 1/4" wide, 17-23" neck

XXL: 1 3/8" wide, 19-25" neck

Measure your dog's neck snug, then add 1-2 inches. When in doubt, size up — the buckle has multiple holes for fine-tuning.

How it ages

Full-grain leather darkens and softens with wear. After a season in the field, the collar starts to look like it belongs to your dog. Cheap leather goes the other way: stiff, then cracked, then trash. Ours doesn't.

Care

Wipe with a damp cloth after wet hunts. Condition with leather balm every 3-6 months — more often if you work the dog hard. Don't soak it; don't run it through the washer.

Backed by our 1-year guarantee — if it fails under normal use within a year, we make it right. No fine print.

Full-grain leather: Wipe clean with a damp cloth and let it air-dry away from direct heat. Condition it now and then with a leather conditioner to keep it supple. The leather will darken and soften as your dog wears it.

Climbing rope & nylon: Hand wash in cool water with a mild soap and hang to dry.

Waterproof PVC: Rinse with fresh water after the beach, lake or mud and wipe dry.

Check the hardware and stitching regularly, and replace any collar or leash that shows wear.
