Collar Measuring

Grab a measuring tape, and gently pull it snug around your dog’s neck. Do not place any more than one finger between your dog’s neck and measuring tape. If the measurement reads between sizes, size down. Do not size up or add “wiggle room.” The collar must be the exact size of your dog’s neck in order for it to tighten snugly. At trials in particular, consider how stressed your dog will be. It’s very important to size down so your dog can’t back out of their slip leash! Visit Brie’s slip leash sizing guide for more information on measuring your dog.

Leash Length

Each slip leash is approximately 5 ft long. This is measured from the base of the collar (including the slip section) to the end of the leash handle. The slip section is what opens up to allow you to pull the collar over the dog’s head easily.
