How Do I Measure?   

Restocking fees of 20% per collar will apply if a collar exchange is needed for incorrect measuring. Your item is custom made for your dog so we can not stress enough to PLEASE measure correctly. We really don't want to charge you :)

When measuring for a perfect fit collar use these simple tips.

If your pet already has a collar : BUCKLE Type Collar    

Do not measure the entire length of the collar. Remove the collar from your pet and lay it on a ruler. Do not measure the entire buckle, start where the fabric or webbing begins. The fabric should be at the end of the ruler, not at the # 1. Look at hole where your collar was buckled, the hole that your pet was using, and match it up with the number on the ruler. This is the smallest size you pet can wear. If in doubt, go up one size or number. Our collar sizing runs true, if you order a 10-11” the holes will be at the 10” and the 11”.

If your pet already has a collar :  Clip Type Buckle 

Adjust the collar to the size your pet was wearing. Un clip the buckle and lay the collar on a ruler. Part of the buckle should be at the end of the ruler, not at the #1. Measure the length of the collar including the other part of the buckle. This is the SMALLEST size your pet wears. Use this number as your base number, you may choose to go up a size. We make the adjustable collars in 2 inch increments, so if we are attaching embellishments, the slider will still slide allowing the collar to go up or down in size. If you do not add the flowers or bows to the quick clip collar, the collar will fully adjust like all adjustable collars. Our collar sizing runs true, if you order a 10-11” the collar including the buckle will be that size.

Measuring your pet:

Use a soft tape measure. Wrap the tape measure around the pets neck snugly, but NOT tight , leaving one or two fingers room, however you like your collar to fit. Line the end of the tape measure up with the numbers on the tape measure. This is the smallest size your pet can wear. Use that number as your guide. If you do not have a soft tape measure, use a piece of string and the instructions above. Mark where the end of the string lines up with the string around the pets neck. Lay it out on a ruler to measure( Start at the end of the ruler, not the #1) This is the smallest size your pet should wear.

Taking Care of your Designer Collar:  Cloe's Collars - taking care of your Designer Collar

We do choose the best fabrics and our collars are durable but not everlasting. Some prints do wear and the color, at some point, will wear off. Please remember these are decorative collars and some extra care will be needed.

We recommend spot cleaning on any embellished collars and hand washing on all of the others. Lay flat to dry to help the collar keep its shape and keep the fabric fresh looking. If the collar gets slightly frayed, remove the collar from the pet, and burn the edges QUICKLY with a lighter. All the embellishments are treated with a fray blocker that CAN be flammable. Use extra caution around the embellishments. All of our collars, leads and harness are made with delicious fabrics, durable nylon webbing and your choice of buckles & embellishments. Cloe’s Collars are not guaranteed against excessive chewing, pulling and scratching. Pets should never be tied out on a Cloe’s product. Always check your pets collar for wear and replace as needed.

Each consumer is responsible for determining the suitability of these products for their individual situation. Consumer accepts all responsibility by purchasing and using these products

We use USPS with delivery confirmation. Please allow 3-7 days, after receiving your shipping notice, for you package to arrive. All orders are packaged in adorable gift boxes, wrapped in paw print tissue paper and spring fill. So having your gift shipped to a friend is as easy as ordering. We can discount shipping on large orders, please contact us first.

Wholesale Orders:

We do not offer wholesale at the present time, however, we do have a few boutiques that purchase our products and we give discounts on shipping. Please contact us before placing an order.

What are restocking fees?

Because Cloe’s offers so many options on each collar, we find it very difficult to find another buyer that wants the same buckle, size and embellishments that you have chosen. But, we are in the planning process of a Brink/Mortar store and will no longer have these fees once everything is in place.
