ACK. *collar envy*
I'm a collar addict. . .with no extra money for collars. Do you know how painful that is? Having your supply cut off? LOL! I have to get all that "necessary" stuff for my dogs instead of collars. Like food. Selfish dogs. :rolleyes:
I'm already drooling over "grown up" collars for Fable and I don't even have half a clue what her neck size will be. :p I also don't know how much her tan will spread, and that makes a difference in what she looks good in. I don't care, I look anyway. My main sites to drool are Paco, Ella's Lead, and Collar Mania, but I've also been stalking Etsy sellers as well as other random sites I find.

So nice! I LOVE the swirl - would like nice on Quinn LOL ;)

I saw you sold Rory's Veronica - I think a 15" might have been a little small on Quinn (when she has her winter coat at least, would have probably fit when she gets all naked and ratty looking in the summer!) but it's probably a good thing I didn't see it earlier or I wouldn't have been able to resist, even though it probably wouldn't have been a wise financial choice for me LOL. Such a beautiful design though.
I LOVED The Veronica, but I didn't want 3 tan collars (and 2 would've been double leather!). Had it been brown I would've definitely kept it.

Figured this picture belongs here.... kind of scary when they're all piled up like this. I have #11 on the way in the mail:

I think you like tan and black.

My Paco fund is growing - but trying to not order till I can purchase 2-3, save on shipping!

I do have a list made out of the Pacos I want. So far about 10. :p

My current dilemma - I love Jackson in brown leather/brass hardware.... but then I run into non-matching harness dilemma, LOL!! He 99% of the time is wearing his Buddy Belt (which ran me at about $70) so I really have no desire to go and buy a brown BB (I think they offer caramel and chocolate or something). AND the silver Fetching Tags conflict. hahah... oh the horror. I have a thing for matching.

I feel you, Saga's gear has to match, too. *I* can wear mismatched socks, but you better believe my dog's collar and leash will match!

Very collar addicted, though I only have some various nylon ones now. Zoie, Skye, and Romeo have some seatbelt style Buckle-Down nylon ones..I even have a belt that matches Romeo's collar.

I've been eyeing some collars at Ella's Lead for a while though, maybe one day I will actually make a decision and go ahead and order.

That is a very expensive picture!! ;)

I have to wait on my collar addiction for awhile. :( I dont know "New Guy's" future neck size, what color/collar would "fit him", and I might get a brown boy, so... I can save up money then anyways!! I really do <3 that swirl collar though!!!

WOW--Renee, those are some awesome collars! I always oogle everyone else's collars--and my poor boys are mistreated by wearing generic ol' nylon collars--but they work!

I like matchy-matchy, too. Each dog has a color:

Ziva is teal/sky blue


Kes is black/silver


Aeri is maroon


And Snipe is butter yellow


I also have several other collars I've gotten since those pictures were taken and I'm working on several custom pieces from Custom Canine Collars...yea, I'm an addict!

I'm all over the place with colors for Harleigh :p Her newest collar lime green zebra print with her name in hot pink (I think it was hot pink anyways, lol). I'm super excited for it to get in :D

She recently got an Oilcloth collar and I really love it!

I'm not a real collar addict. Bandit currently has three. One I found at the dog park that is a plain nylon red that looks nice on him. He has a cheap leather collar and the black canvas one he has been wearing since he was a pup. He has a fancy tag though.

I'd LOVE to get him a really nice collar to hang on my wall after he passes on. When I have a bit of spare money I'm going to look into a nice dark brown leather collar for him. Black just blends into his coat sadly. and I want something that is noticeable but not too much on his fur.

This in a martingale will be Logan's working collar. I'm still torn on what color leather. I want the new blue EL has, but might do black. Or brown. Or something else.



I have just completely fallen in love with this thing. I was working on designing a custom Dalek-y collar. But this is just timey-wimey enough that I HAVE to have it!


In other news I was walking around with Gavroche at the dog show today looking at vendors and soem random person comes up in front of me and physically stops me and Gavroche, grabs his collar, examines it, and then leaves. WTF?

It's been a collar laden week. Nog got a martingale from Paco collars (don't want the Nog slipping away ;) ), Newt got a sparkly Xdog collar and Goose got a Collar Mania panda martingale with her name on it. She won a contest:)

I think I need to post a newest picture of Sierra's collar collection... I think at least 4, maybe 5, have added since the old photo. I can't seem to get into photobucket right now, so I can't even post the old picture! I am a well known collar addict!
