| Coach collar question? Does anyone have this collar for their baby? I want mine to have it, but I've never seen it it person. Does anyone have a picture of it they could post? Does it get dirty easily? Also if you have it, did you measure your dog's neck? Or just go by the sizes you buy in other collars? Here's the link: Coach :: PRINTED LEGACY STRIPE LEATHER COLLAR Thanks so much! |

| Always measure especially when its something that expensive. Spending that much on a collar for my yorkie would be a waste because she is such a non girly girl she would get it nice a dirty lol. Make sure when using a collar you never hook the leash to it.

| I am kind of a collar freak, LOL. I have spent $60 on Jackson's two Paco Collars. Worth every penny. He's a very active boy, and I let him get the one more dirty than the other, so we have a 'nice' occasion collar and then a 'dirty' occasion collar lol. But the one still looks incredible. Good quality leather will last! My other fav leather shops would be Ella's Lead and CaliGirlCollars. But I'm not sure how durable the Coach collars are. They're most likely probably just for looks, so as long as you know that, I probably wouldn't allow it to get wet or too dirty.

| Yikes! $88?! I never think Coach is worth it IMO. Coach is made in China, why so expensive? It's not quality leather anymore. It used to be when they were made in Turkey. Also a few hints about leather. If a leather has paint on the edges (or dye of a different color than the main color), it's cheap leather. If you pull off that paint you will see what they call "wet blue" in the industry. Cheap leather is never dyed all the way through. The inside (or the cut edge) will look blue or greyish. Yup even LV leather, they paint the edges. Full grain Top grain Geniune Leather Suede Then there's the worst which is remnants glued together and pressed into "leather" sheets But to answer your question, most normal sized yorkies would be the size XS 8-10". But 3/4" of an inch wide is VERY wide for a yorkie.

| I purchased a Coach collar for a previous dog and absolutely loved it. I measured the dogs neck to make sure I purchased the correct size. My previous dog would wear the Coach collar anytime we would take her out of the house. She was not one to wear a collar when we were at home with her. We got her a collar with the "C"'s all over it and it lasted several years! |

| Also the website is having a 50% off sale so you will get it at a good price. I've never owned a Coach collar or leash however I have several purses and they are high quality and last for quite a while if well taken care of. |
