The Sweet Home Studio Over-the-collar Dog Bandana, Small, Red Buffalo Check Flannel, fall plaid, no tie

This small over-the-collar dog bandana fits a neck of 12–14 inches. The 100% cotton flannel comes in a red buffalo check, and it slides onto the dog's current collar through a built-in opening, so there is no tying. A collar is not included, so the size you choose depends on the collar the dog already wears.

Sizing a bandana to the collar

The measurement that decides the size is the dog's neck or the length of the collar it wears now. For this small bandana, that measurement is 12–14 inches. The other sizes run from X-Small at 9–11 inches up to X-Large at 22–28 inches. When the bandana is on the collar, it should cover about 1/2 to 2/3 of the collar's length.

Two things are worth checking before you buy. The collar itself is not part of the order, so the bandana only works over a collar you already have. And because the fabric is cut at random, where the buffalo check falls on the bandana may differ from the photo.

How the bandana goes on the collar

The bandana has an opening sewn into it, and the dog's collar feeds through that opening. The bandana then sits on the collar with no knot and no tie to fasten. It is double-sided, so the cotton flannel shows on both faces, and every edge carries a seam.

The flannel is natural 100% cotton, and the piece is handmade. The fabric runs in a dark rainbow ombre plaid with autumn colours, and the bandana is sewn in a smoke-free environment.

Washing the cotton flannel

The bandana is machine washable and can be used again after washing. Wash it on its own or with like colours, and let it dry before it goes back on the collar.

What should I measure to pick the size?

Measure the length of the dog's current collar, or measure around the neck. Match that figure to the size range: 12–14 inches for this small bandana.

Does the bandana tie around the neck?

No. It has a built-in opening that the collar feeds through, and it slides over the collar already on the dog.

How much of the collar should the bandana cover?

About 1/2 to 2/3 of the collar's length is the recommended coverage.

Is a collar included with the bandana?

No, the collar is not included; the bandana is made to slide over the one the dog wears.

Will my bandana look exactly like the photo?

The fabric is cut at random, so the position of the plaid pattern can differ from the picture.
