Tips

Here are a few tips about the necklaces.

Only have your dog wear the ribbon necklace while under adult supervision. Obviously you don’t want your dog to eat the ribbons or to catch herself on anything. Be especially careful if she is a mischievous dog.

Watch out for other dogs trying to eat the ribbons off the one who is wearing the necklace.

If your dog seems annoyed wearing the ribbon necklace, maybe taking her on a walk with the necklace on will help her get used to the necklace. Or a car ride.

If you want the necklace to be tighter, undo the knot in the elastic and re-knot. The looser the necklace is, the more likely she will catch herself on something or be able to remove the necklace all by herself. We usually leave extra elastic cord on the necklace so you can fit it to the size you want. When you have sized it, you can make a real tight knot.

If the ribbons become frayed, give them a short trim with sharp scissors to make the ends clean again. A dog can try to eat the loose strings, so please remember to trim them when they get frayed.

When your dog is not wearing the necklace, a good place to hang it is on a doorknob, dresser drawer, or on a hanger in the closet. The ribbons will not get squished if they are hanging on something.

Keep the ribbons dry. Do not get wet.

Avoid having your dog wear the necklace while playing or romping around with another dog. This is to avoid lots of mouthing on neck which would get the necklace wet.

If there are any issues with the necklace (such as incorrect collar size, ribbons way too long, not to your liking, etc), let me know and then I can either refund your money or re-make the ribbon necklace.

Hope this helps and have fun! If you have a photo of your dog with the necklace on, I would love to put it up on my web site. Please let me know. Thanks.
