Ancol Heritage Rolled Leather Dog Collar Black 28-36cm Size 3

Ancol Heritage Rolled Leather Collar – Black, Size 3

A rolled collar sits on the coat rather than pressing a flat edge into it, and Ancol's Heritage Rolled Leather Collar in size 3 brings that to small long-haired dogs. In black, the round profile looks neat and understated on any dog.

This black rolled collar is size 3, for necks of 28 to 36cm (S on Ancol's rolled collar chart), which suits many Shih Tzus, Westies and other small long-coated dogs. Check your dog's neck with a soft tape first, since necks vary a lot within a breed.

Performance & Benefits

• Rolled (round) design that helps reduce tangling and matting in long coats.
• Premium European bridle leather around a strong nylon core.
• Made in the UK by Ancol's own skilled workforce.
• Contrast stitching for a refined finish.
• Traditional buckle fastening.
• Matches the Heritage Leather Lead, which we stock in tan, black and oxblood.
• Packed in recycled and recyclable packaging.

Suitable For

• Necks measuring 28 to 36cm.
• Many Shih Tzus, Westies and other small long-coated dogs.
• Long-haired dogs whose coat tangles or mats under a flat collar.
• Nearby sizes in black: we also stock size 4 (35–43cm). The rolled collar is made in sizes 3 to 7.
• Not the best choice for a dog that swims or wades on most walks. Repeated soaking is hard on leather and can make the dye run, so a nylon collar copes better with water.

How to Use

• Measure around the middle of your dog's neck with a soft tape before choosing a size.
• Fasten the buckle so two fingers slide comfortably between the collar and the neck, but the collar cannot slip over the ears.
• Re-check the fit on a growing puppy, and after any change in weight or coat.
• Add an ID tag. In the UK, a dog in a public place must wear a collar with the owner's name and address on it or on an attached tag.

Care & Caution

• Leather is a natural, porous material, so slight differences in colour and finish are normal.
• Avoid soaking it. The natural dye can transfer when the leather is wet, which shows on a pale coat.
• If it does get wet, let it air dry naturally, away from radiators, hairdryers and other direct heat.
• Treat with a suitable leather conditioner once a year, and store somewhere dry when not in use.
• Check the stitching and buckle holes from time to time, and replace it if it is worn or damaged.
