Is the collar a "stand up collar" or easily turned down? I have a short neck and stand up collars really bother me

It easily folds down. There is really nothing I don't like about this coat.

I have accidentally left it on the dog all day and it was OK but I wouldn't recommend it on a regular basis. Great collar though.

It's a wide collar. I have a toy poodle that weighs 5 lbs and I had to cut off the end so it wouldn't hang. It isn't something I leave on her all the time, because it is bulky, but it's really pretty and well made for those special occasions.

The collar might not be tight enough on his neck. My shepherd doesnt feel it unless its tight on his neck and not loose and he responds to the low settings. My other dog has short hair but hes a big boy and he responds too usually a high 6

According to the instructions, the collar needs to fairly tight. If you can get it buckled pretty easily, it is probably too loose. Make sure the dog is standing when you put on the collar. I have to stand over my dog and hold her up with my knees at her hips to put on the collar. I found that the collar can be a little looser and still work. But it still needs to tight enough to stay in place.

It says up to 12" for a small dog. Mine is. It gives a slag of an inch or so to make it comfortable. His neck size is about 12" in generous measurement, and he did not mind the collar at all.

I've used this type of collar on dogs with shorter necks...think as long as you measure accurately and order the corresponding size, you will be okay - good luck to you and your poochie - this type of collar is the only one that works for active dogs (in our experience!).

Nick, The collar is very big, I have an adult golden retriever mix and we have considered cutting down a portion of the collar. There are plenty of holes for any adjustment, large or small. Great collar!

I did the same thing for my 2 dogs and taped their name above which side cote old their collar so I wouldn't shock the wrong one. Lol a couple things to let you know... The clasps are cheap plastic and break easy. Idk what kind of dogs you have but I have a black lab with a thinner neck and it works good for her. For my Dachshand it doesn't work well because it is too big and even being tightened to the max is still not enough. For my American bulldog with a larger neck it is not big enough and would be tight at first and now he can't wear it at all. Sorry for such a delayed response. I have been so busy.

There is a cm measurement with the description. My dog has about 16 inch neck size and it fit he just right. Collar is adjustable, can go smaller but not much bigger than the 16 inches

It is a shock collar after all...But note, I purchased one and had a replacement sent to me and both "shorted out" after just a few hours and left my poor dog with a raw, hairless neck.

For the Correct fit the collar should be snug - high up on the neck - just behind the ears and below the jaw..- not down low near the collarbone like a regular collar.. The links can be removed or added to adjust as needed. To measure the actual neck you can use a flexible measuring tape . My 95lb Doberman uses the Large collar, and I have adjusted it to be 7 links . If I order her a regular collar, it is 16". Which is measured from the center hole of a 5 hole adjustable collar.

My dog measures between 16 and 17 inches on the neck and the 18 fits well. I think that the 18 inch collar may be a little small and hard to slip over her head. This collar has been a blessing for me and my dog is now much easier to control.

the collar is like a mock-turtleneck shirt; higher than a crew-neck cut, but not as high as a turtleneck. It covers the base of your neck below your Adam's apple.

My dogs neck is 19 with lots of room to spare I stretch the collar out to 25" (counting buckle too) but I'm missing 6-7" of collar thanks to someone getting bored one day.Over a year later and its still the best on the Pyr and the blood hound method of training yet! (just remember to turn it off or you will be burning through battries quick!)Hope this helps,MBP

Hello Virginia. Sorry for the delay. The collar size can get down to about a 7 inch neck size.

No cover. You need a scarf or homemade cover unless you want to wash it after use. And a PS, I find this particular collar too stiff and uncomfortable.
