Got Questions? We've Got Answers!
How do I ensure the perfect fit for my dog's collar?
Great question! To find the right fit, measure your pup’s neck with a flexible tape measure. Make sure it’s snug but not too tight! If you're in between sizes, we recommend going for the larger one — comfort is key, after all.
What materials do you use for collars and leashes?
We handcraft our collars and leashes using high-quality, durable materials like soft cotton, sturdy nylon, and premium leather. Each piece is designed to withstand all those joyful walks and playful tug-of-war sessions!
Can I customize the colors or patterns on my collar?
Absolutely! We love personal touches! You can choose from a variety of colors and patterns when placing your order, so your furry friend can strut their stuff in style.
What if I need to return or exchange my collar or leash?
While we’re pretty confident that you and your pup will love your new gear, we get it — sometimes things don’t work out. Just reach out to our friendly support team, and we’ll help you through the return or exchange process!
How long does it take to get my order?
Your patience will be rewarded! Typically, it takes about 5-7 business days for us to make your custom order, and then shipping takes around 3-5 days. Good things come to those who wait — or as we like to say, good things come to those who love their dogs!
Do you offer any guarantees on your products?
We stand by our craftsmanship! If you notice any defects or issues with your collar or leash, just let us know within 30 days of purchase and we’ll make it right. We want you and your pet to be absolutely thrilled!
How do I care for my custom collar and leash?
Keeping your gear in tip-top shape is easy! Just spot clean with mild soap and water, and avoid harsh chemicals. If you want your collar to last an extra long time, store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.
