Collar

edited August 2008 in General
What size neck does piggy have?

We had this SUPER nice collar made for Kona but it ended up being way to big - it was a custom job so I can't return it. I ordered another one for Kona and I don't want this one to go to waste.

I'll get a picture of it for you, it is 16 inches at the smallest hole, so it will fit up to a 20 inch neck.

It came out a bit too "biker dude style" for Kona, but it may work well on Piggy. The one I just ordered will not have the studs in it.

let me get a picture....

    Ok, I took a bunch of pics but then realized its leather... I dunno if you are ok with leather, probably not - huh?

    Well, here are some pics in case you are interested:

    The collar is nice quality leather and is lined with Elk so its very soft. The width is 1.5 inches.

    If you are ok with the leather you can have it - for free - I just want someone to use it and it not go to waste.

    It would fit. Piglets neck is 18 inches.

    I have some leather things that were gifts. While I won't buy it. When someone has shown kindness and the deed is done, insulting an act of generosity helps no one.

    We call non vegan gifts free-gan :P

    If you must know I was trying have shirts made for your pups, my screen printer had to go and have a baby (silly human breeder) and the more I thought about it the more I realized that that while shirts are funny as hell for us, dogs...not so much.

    Are you sure your Akitas wouldn't use it?

    Hi Jessica,

    You are welcome to have it, but you certainly will not hurt my feelings if you would prefer not to have a leather product. I totally understand. So don't feel obligated, Jen and I just thought Piglet could wear it.

    Let me know!

    sorry, I spaced...

    The t-shirt idea is really sweet! That would be cute, so were they going to be for our dogs to wear or for us to wear but featuring our dogs?

    As for the Akita question, it fits on Lani - that's it - but she is too fluffy, it looks kinds silly. :o\

    The shirts all started with Jay wanting Hilo to have a shirt that said "Radda Radda" (what the character Schnitzel from chowder says). Then I needed to think of shirts for each of the pack. Kaia having one that said "Queen Bee". Etc.

    I know something is brewing in that head of mine....I will think of it.

    I think if Piglet were a boy I would jump on it. But honestly I am always trying to "femme" her up. That said it looks like a great collar. Thank you for thinking of me.

    We probably wouldn't put her in it.

    Now I kind of want to see it on Lani...

    lol - that's funny! Hilo is such a big dork, we love him... He needs a t shirt that just says "dork" on it. I wonder if Hilo knows people all over the world love him. If he did I'm sure it wouldn't go to his head. :o)

    I agree, and think you make a good point, the collar is a bit masculine.

    I'll take a pic of it on Lani... I wish we could fit on Hilo but he is to fluffy! We put it on Ahi and Fuji and it just looked kinda sad on them, didn't work at all.

    We can try it on the CO [we plan to name her "Anoka"], but she will only be able to wear it for a month or so. [Yikes!]

    Maybe it will work on Kahuna. (???)

    I was thinking of offering it to Sasha, but the collar is proudly to masculine for her too. :o\

    oh, well.

    Thanx for being honest! I am like you I think, I keep every gift anyone ever gives me and feel horrible if I turn down a gift or something... I have so many things I never use because someone gave it to me as a gift and I feel bad returning/exchanging things people gave me as a gift.

    So just know, no worries, I am with you on the gift thing and we are not offended at all - we honestly just don't want to waste this $90 collar I screwed the size up on. :oT

    I am very much like you when it comes to gifts. And it was hard for me to type, as I was honored that you would think of us in the first place, and it was clearly a very nice collar. But I have made a commitment to myself to be as honest as I can with people (without being intentionally hurtful). And I would feel AWFUL accepting a generous gift and then not using it. What a waste!

    I have a feeling in the next few months I will receive a message from you telling me how lucky we were that you kept it because it is the ONLY collar Kahuna will wear! Or something like that...

    At least I like to think the universe works like this.

    Thank you again.

    By the way, I bet Hilo would find a way to blush if he knew how big his fan club would be. How could anyone not fall completely in love with an akita with "the fierceness of a cotton ball" (possibly one of the best things ever written)
