--- COLLAR SIZING ---
My collars are measured lying flat from one end of the buckle to the other.

* XS: 9"–13"
* S: 9 1/2"–14"
* M: 12 1/2"–19"
* L: 13"–20"
* XL: 15"–23"
* XXL: 20"–30"
Please remember that sizing can vary between shops. Always use my sizing chart when ordering.
Not every size and width combination is available for every fabric design.

--- HOW TO MEASURE YOUR DOG ---
For the best fit:
* Measure around your dog's neck where the collar will sit.
* Add approximately 2" to your dog's actual neck measurement.
* Choose the size that corresponds with your measurement.
You can also measure your dog's current collar:
* Lay the collar flat.
* Measure from one end of the buckle to the other.
* Select the size that most closely matches that measurement.

For example, if your dog's neck measures 19", select the XL 23" size. Once buckled, the finished collar will measure approximately 21 1/2".
If you are unsure about sizing, please message me before ordering.
