Each Dazzle Hound Collar is completely custom made in Bellville, Ohio USA by Jodie Snavely.  After receiving your dog's neck measurements and leather color, I cut the leather to size from a large piece of English Bridle Leather.  I then smooth out and bevel the edges to ensure a comfortable fit for your dog and shave the leather to fit the buckle finish you have selected.  After dying the edges with water-based dye (entirely safe for your pet), I condition the leather to bring out its natural beauty and to protect the collar.  Next comes the fun part. I use a template to mark your design and then hand punch the holes to set your hardware, jewels, stones, conchos, rivets and spikes.  I then inspect the finished product and it is shipped to you with love!

Use a tape measure to measure around your dog's neck.  If you don't have a tape measure, use a string, then measure the string on a ruler. Don’t make it too tight or too loose. If your pet’s collar measurement is between two sizes, it’s best to round up—if your dog has a 16 ½” neck, round up to 17″. That way you will have room for pet growth or fur thickness.  

Double check your measurements and also make sure you have chosen the correct range in the size option. For instance, if your dog’s neck measures 17″, choose the collar size 16″-18″ in the drop-down menu. There are 5 holes with 1/2" spacing between holes for the buckle tongue.  The middle hole would fall on 17".  Visit How To Measure for details.  

It will take approximately 2-3 weeks as each leather item is hand-made to order. Thinking of a collar or other leather item for the holidays? Order early!

Yes. Your dog’s custom collar is guaranteed. If for any reason a stone, jewel or concho were to come loose, simply ship it back and I will fix it for free and ship it back to you for free. If your dog chews the collar and damages it, however, that’s not guaranteed.

Friendly suggestion- ordering a collar with Swarovski crystals (jewels) is a beautiful choice! But if your dog wears more than one collar, a second collar could loosen the jewels by rubbing against the jewels and cause them to fall out.  

I want you and your pet to be perfectly satisfied, so please contact me with questions and for the shipping address.

Condition it periodically with a quality leather conditioner that you would find in a shoe store. I use Fiebing’s Aussie Conditioner or Oakwood Leather Conditioner to preserve, soften, protect, and bring back to life. Dazzle Hound Collars are meant to be worn daily and enjoyed.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would love to make you a cuff!  How about a cuff to match your dog’s collar!  Measure around your wrist the same as you would for your dog’s neck. Cuffs are 5/8", 1″ or 1.5″ in width. 

To match your cuff to your dog's collar, choose the dog collar type and design options you like and send me your request thru the Contact page. I’ll quickly get back with you.  

Excellent choice when purchasing for a friend!
