Size

To select the most accurate size collar for your pet, measure the center of their neck with a cloth tape measured, a few inches down from their head. Pull the cloth tape measure snugly, but not tight. If you don't have a cloth tape measure, you can use a piece of string and measure it with a rigid ruler afterward. Make sure there’s enough room for about two fingers between the collar and your pet’s neck for comfort.
