The useful thing about buying it in blue is that Ancol run the same blue through the Viva padded leads, so a collar and lead can actually be matched rather than approximately matched — and the choice you then have to make is the lead width, not the colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a dog with a 39–48cm neck the honest answer is usually the 19mm lead, which Ancol rate for dogs up to 50kg; the 12mm is rated to 20kg and will feel thin in the hand on anything heavier. Padding on the collar and padding on the lead handle do different jobs — one protects the dog's neck, the other protects your palm — and on a dog this size both are worth having.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits necks 39–48cm, with 9cm of adjustment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft padding behind poly-weave webbing, spreading the load off a narrow strip of neck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin buckle and ID loop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour-matched to the Ancol Viva Padded Lead Blue in both 12mm and 19mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeatherproof, rated by Ancol for swimming, and washable at 30°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs measuring 39–48cm at the base of the neck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners putting together a matched blue collar and lead set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs paired with the 19mm lead — Ancol's rating for that width is up to 50kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-weather walking including swimming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dog over 48cm needs the Ancol Viva Padded Dog Collar Blue 45-54cm Size 6; a small, light dog under 39cm the Blue 35-43cm Size 4, and for that dog the 12mm Ancol Viva Padded Lead Blue is the better lead.\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 and buy on the figure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjust to two fingers of clearance under the webbing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatch the lead to the dog's weight rather than the collar's size — 12mm to 20kg, 19mm to 50kg on Ancol's own guidance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine wash collar and lead together at 30°C, do not tumble dry, air dry both fully.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAncol size 5, fitting necks 39–48cm.
