That span is the reason to buy a buckle collar rather than a fixed one: the same collar can be let out as a puppy fills into its adult frame, and taken back in when the coat comes off in spring. It is also why the fit is worth rechecking rather than setting once and forgetting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA collar sits at the same tension all week, so a small change in the dog shows up as a real difference. A groomed double coat can drop a neck by two centimetres overnight; a dog carrying winter condition puts it back. Two fingers sliding flat under the webbing is the check, and this collar has enough holes either side of a mid-range setting to keep meeting it. Poly-weave webbing with soft padding, satin buckle, ID loop, washable at 30°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits necks 35–43cm — 8cm of adjustment, enough to follow a coat change or a growing dog.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft padding behind poly-weave webbing for comfort under sustained wear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin buckle and ID loop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and weatherproof; Ancol rate the range for swimming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine washable at 30°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue is the easiest of the colourways to spot in long grass at a distance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs measuring 35–43cm at the base of the neck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowing dogs expected to settle inside that range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-coated and clipped breeds whose neck measurement moves through the year.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs wearing an ID tag full time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dog likely to grow past 43cm should start on the Ancol Viva Padded Dog Collar Blue 39-48cm Size 5 instead of being outgrown mid-season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure the base of the neck over the coat with a soft tape.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet the buckle so two fingers pass flat underneath, and aim for a mid-range hole rather than an end one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecheck monthly on a growing dog, and after every groom on a coated one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang the ID tag on the loop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine wash at 30°C, do not tumble dry, air dry naturally before refitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAncol size 4, fitting necks 35–43cm.
