How often do you change/throw out their collars?

I'd love to say the same, but I'm just not that organized. LOL I actually have no idea where Uni's baby collar is, I just know I have it somewhere and no one would dare throw it out.

I also keep his puppy collar, a tiny Harley Davidson one, soo cute. He barely even wore it, he grew a bit more than I thought he would, Hehe!!

Oh and I love the one you posted!

Here's most of his collar collection (like I said, I have a problem! LOL, and most in the first pic were really cheap, the tiny black one was his pup collar) And the last pic is his bandanas, most of them from the groomer that I save.

OMG!! One of your bandana matches Emma's dress!! The St. Patrick one with the white, where did you get it? I need to get one for Carmel so they can match! Oh man, I'm addicted to ALL doggie stuff... I need to sell some, but haven't been able to part with any though... Here's my babies' collars...ironically, they don't usually wear collars though. lol I was in love with the flower collection...haha Jackson definitely has more than them combined

Same here! We didn't keep first collar though...Carmel chewed up Emma's first collar. However, I did keep their baby teeth and first shirt

I was just looking at Uni's baby teeth last night! Those I know where they are. In my desk drawer wrapped in a napkin LOL.

My "memory box" is currently a plastic storage box where I throw everything. I would like to make something nicer and organize it. Max's first little harness is in there. I love looking at it and thinking of how it was way too big on him.

We only found one of Callies baby teeth when she was losing them but I did keep it and when she got spayed I was so freaking out i forgot to ask to keep the ones they pulled.

When I look at Callie's first tank top it was an xsmall and now she a medium or large. I also love looking at the picture of her in it she was so small compaired to now. Sorry had to share old pictures

Ellie doesn't really wear collars. Her harnesses are switched up (she has like 3) whenever (randomly). Whatever one I grab is the one we use. I've never had one wear out on me (maybe bc we do switch them up, but she doesn't do anything to mess them up anyway). I'd wash them if there was a reason to, but she doesn't really get dirty. Didn't even get dirty enough to wash when we played in the lake.

Now Ry chews his harness. Probably be unusable anytime now. So his will be changed out much more often.

We wash our collars every 1-3 weeks depending on when bath time is. I would like to get nice leather ones but I haven't found thin ones yet.

And I must confirm, Brit is a collar addict. However, Jackson always looks wonderful

LOL, yes, it's ridiculous. However I must say he has like hardly ANY clothes and things like that, so I don't spend money on many clothes, bows or grooming accessories and things of the sort. So collars it is!!

Yep, Lauren can confirm it. I can never NOT visit the collar section of our pet boutique haha!

I have decided my two both need new collars, but have not found anything I like I'm having trouble finding what I want. I don't know what I want, but I'll know it when I find it! I've been cruising Etsy with no luck...

That's the nice thing about etsy, is if you have an idea of what you want but don't see it, you can message the seller and see if they can make what you want. However, if you don't know what you want, then you're outta luck

I dont use collars for my yorkies but I do use them for my cats because they are indoor/outdoor. I use breakaways so it seems about every 4 months or so Im replacing them because they have broke off and gotten lost. I really dont like collars but alot of cats run loose in our neighborhood and I just wanted to identify that mine belonged to someone. Jesse my Husband has a cat he wont let me put a collar on.
