Ancol Dalmatian & Zigzag Reversible Dog Bow Tie Set

Ancol Soho Dalmatian & Zigzag Bow Tie Set

Two bow ties in a pack, one in the pale pink Dalmatian print and one in the black Zigzag, both cut from 100% recycled fabric. Ancol sell them as a two-per-pack set rather than as one reversible bow tie — their own note that each bow tie saves one plastic bottle from landfill counts them individually — so what arrives is a matched pair, not a single item that flips.

They are made to sit on the collar, which Ancol say fits any of their collars, so the bow tie is held by something already fitted rather than by an elastic loop of its own. That is the sensible arrangement for a dog: nothing extra round the neck, and nothing to work loose during a walk.

Performance & Benefits

• Two bow ties per pack — one Dalmatian, one Zigzag.
• 100% recycled fabric, from Ancol's Soho pattern range.
• Collar-mounted, so no additional strap goes round the dog's neck.
• Ancol state they fit all Ancol collars.
• One plastic bottle diverted from landfill per bow tie, on Ancol's figures.
• Plastic-reduced packaging that is widely recycled.

Suitable For

• Dogs already in an Ancol collar, in any size.
• Weddings, christenings, birthday photographs and Christmas.
• Coordinating with the Ancol Dalmatian Pattern Dog Collar or the Ancol Zigzag Pattern Dog Collar in the matching print.
• Owners wanting something smarter than a bandana but less bulky.
• Not for all-day everyday wear on a dog that plays roughly — a bandana from the Ancol Dalmatian & Zigzag Reversible Dog Bandana Set survives that better than a bow tie will.

How to Use

• Unbuckle the collar, fit the bow tie to it, then refit the collar for two fingers of clearance.
• Sit the bow tie centrally at the front of the throat and straighten it before photographs.
• Put it on shortly before the occasion and take it off afterwards, rather than leaving it on all day.
• Ancol publish no washing instructions; spot clean cool and air dry, and do not tumble dry.

Care & Caution

• A bow tie is a small piece of fabric near a dog's mouth. Do not leave it on an unsupervised dog.
• Not a toy. If swallowed it is an obstruction risk, so remove it if another dog starts pulling at it.
• Check the collar still fits properly with the bow tie in place.
• Discard a bow tie once it has been chewed, rather than repairing it.
