You can also use a good mink oil leather preserver, it will help soften the leather and protect it from mud and water we use our bb all the time on our 2 mile waks in the park and on vacation at the beach in the sand.  Quincy does not go in the water he is a scardy cat and barks at the waves.  It's too comical.  Ours has also stretched out I don't think he really knows its on he so use to it. Quincy is 10lbs and wears a size 4.5.
