Ancol Heritage Rolled Leather Dog Collar Oxblood 39-48cm Size 5

Ancol Heritage Rolled Leather Collar – Oxblood, Size 5

Long coats tangle and mat under a flat collar, and that is what the Heritage Rolled Leather Collar is designed to reduce: premium European bridle leather rolled around a strong nylon core. The oxblood shade is a dark burgundy-brown that looks especially good on pale and golden coats.

This oxblood rolled collar is size 5, for necks of 39 to 48cm (M on Ancol's rolled collar chart), which suits many springer spaniels, border collies and other mid-sized long-coated dogs. Measure around your dog's neck with a soft tape before you order, as breed is only a rough guide.

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 39 to 48cm.
• Many springer spaniels, border collies and other mid-sized long-coated dogs.
• Long-haired dogs whose coat tangles or mats under a flat collar.
• Nearby sizes in oxblood: we also stock size 4 (35–43cm) and size 6 (45–54cm). 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.
