| Leather
Care |
| Keeping
your new collar or harness well cared for will greatly
extend its life and help keep it looking great. It is
recommended to apply leather conditioner to the new
product and after that, clean and condition the leather
as often as is needed to keep it clean, soft and supple.
To clean, apply to a damp, soft sponge just enough liquid
glycerin soap to make the sponge slightly sudsy. Scrub
the collar or lead thoroughly and use a dry sponge to
wipe excess soap suds from the leather. Allow wet or
damp leather to air-dry naturally away from any heat
source. Harnesses, leashes and collars should be laid
flat or hung. Never place your leather products in direct
sunlight or on or very near a heat vent or fan. Allow
it to dry thoroughly. Once it is completely dry, wipe
it clean by rubbing with a soft cloth. |
| After cleaning apply
small amount of leather conditioner. Pour a bit into
the palm of your hand, rub your hands together and massage
the conditioner into the leather. Use only the amount
of conditioner that the leather will absorb and wipe
the excess off with a soft cloth. Let it dry for 24
hours, then buff with a soft dry cloth. Remember, leather
is a natural material and should never be stored in
plastic because it encourages the growth of mildew and
bacteria and will ruin the leather. Always store leather
in a cool, dry place away from heat when not in use.

| Choosing
the Right Size |
|
To choose the most
accurate size and avoid additional shipping costs
for exchanges, please follow the instructions on each
product's page regarding the method for taking the
correct measurements. Do not relay just on the weight
or breed of your dog. Also don't take as a measurement
guide any previous items your dog used to wear or
measurements from other stores you have made purchases
from as each store has its own guidelines for measurements.
You need to take the actual measurements of your dog
and compare with the listed data to make sure you
buying the correct size item.
If your measurements
fall in between two sizes of the item you wish to
purchase and you don't know which one to choose, the
following considerations will help you decide which
size will work best for your dog:
- Age ( if you choosing
a collar, a harness or a dog suit for a dog who
is younger then one and half years old, chances
are he or she will gain some size dimensions in
the neck and chest circumference)
- The type of coat
(for thick or longer coated dogs you need to provide
extra room for their fur to assure a comfortable
fit of your dog's new collar, harness or dog suit)
- The purpose of the
item (a tighter fitting collar, harness or muzzle
will assure a secure fit of the item for training
dogs and working with them, a looser fit is appropriate
for using the item around the house or extended
wear)
