That double row of stitching is the detail worth paying for: it is what decides whether a leather collar lasts a season or a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSable is the warm mid-brown of the four Timberwolf colours, and it darkens and softens as it is worn rather than cracking. This is size 3, cut for necks of 28 to 36cm, which puts it with spaniels, whippets, small terriers and similar light-boned dogs. Measure round the neck with a tape before ordering — a size 3 dog is often a size 4 dog in a thick winter coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop-grain bridle leather, the grade used for tack rather than fashion goods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the UK by Ancol's own workforce.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSewn down both sides with bonded thread, so the stress falls on stitching rather than glue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuckle fastening, which holds its setting instead of creeping the way a plastic clip can.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftens and darkens with wear, and takes a conditioning rather than needing replacing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne of eight sizes, so the fit can be right rather than nearly right.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNecks measuring 28 to 36cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall and mid-size breeds — cockers, whippets, border terriers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEveryday walking use, and dogs that wear a collar all day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners who would rather buy one collar and look after it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarger dogs want a bigger size — we stock size 5 (39–48cm) and size 6 (45–54cm) in sable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a good choice for a dog that swims most walks or works wet ditches — nylon such as the Ancol Viva Adjustable range takes repeated soaking far better than leather does.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure round the middle of the neck with a soft tape, then check the figure falls inside 28–36cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFasten so two fingers slide comfortably underneath but the collar cannot pull over the ears.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-check the fit on a growing dog, and again when a winter coat comes in or moults out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork the buckle through the same hole where you can, and let new leather bed in over the first few weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize 3, fitting necks 28–36cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop-grain bridle leather, made in the UK, sewn down both sides with bonded thread.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSable.
