GI Leather Dog Collar - Size 26

GI Leather Dog Collar - Size 26

The GI Collar is quite possibly the best leather collar for strong and big dogs. Originally, this double-layer leather dog collar was supplied to dog handlers at the former Plattsburgh, NY, Air Force Base, which is how it got its name.

Constructed of two layers of high quality full grain bridle leather with an extended dee ring pattern for additional strength. The layers are stitched together with heavy-duty nylon thread and the edges are beveled and hand finished to assure comfort. Bright nickel-plated welded dee ring and strong roller buckle with a wire tuck loop keeper and smooth capped rivets complete the assembly.

Sizing: Even though you can expect some degree of adjustability with your new dog collar, it is important to measure your dog carefully.

If you are satisfied with the fit of your dog's current collar, measure that collar from the center bar of the buckle to the farthest hole. Our collars are sized from the center bar of the buckle to the farthest hole (See diagram above).

If this is your dog's first collar or you need a collar in a different size, measure around the dog's neck just as you would like the new collar to fit. The collar shouldn't be so tight that it will cause discomfort or loose enough to slide over the dog's head.

Other things to consider: Remember that puppies grow quickly, so it is important to check the tightness of your dog collars. Inspect and replace a collar or a leash as soon as it shows signs of wear that threatens the integrity of the collar/leash.Auburn Leathercrafters is a family owned and operated business.
