SIZING WITH CONFIDENCE

We get it , ordering the perfect fit online can feel tricky, but we've made it foolproof! Because our collars are handmade to order just for your pup, getting an accurate measurement ensures maximum comfort and safety!

STEP 1:
Measure the widest part of your pets head with a soft measuring tape. This is usually right in front of their ears.

STEP 2:
Measure their neck where you would like the collar to sit.

STEP 3:
Take the larger of the two measurements and mimic sliding it over their hear to ensure a proper fit.

* If you are unsure select the larger of the two measurements to ensure a comfortable fit.

Tips and Additional Options:

  • When measuring for a beaded collar, please note that it will fit differently than a traditional flat collar. The beaded design contours comfortably to your pet’s body, so you do not need to include the standard one to two fingers of extra space in your measurement.

  • Another sizing option is to measure the inside diameter of your pet's current collar. Be sure the collar is large enough to comfortably pass over their head, as a properly fitted beaded collar should go on and off by gently tucking each ear through one at a time. The ideal fit sits securely behind the ears, where it naturally catches on the cartilage for a comfortable and secure hold.

  • You are welcome to bring your pet to any market where POPNCO is attending, and Lisa will be happy to assist with measurements and collar fittings to ensure the best possible fit for your furry companion. You can also visit any retail location that carries POPNCO collars for in-person sizing assistance.

Neck sizes listed in the following chart are approximate averages based on breed standards and common measurements. Every dog is unique, and individual neck size can vary depending on age, weight, and build. For the best fit, we recommend measuring your dog’s neck directly before purchasing collars or accessories.

Why pets and their owners love POPNCO Collars!

Helps Break Stereotypes:

Beaded collars do something unexpected—they shift how people see your dog. A beautifully crafted collar draws the eye first, inviting strangers to notice the artistry, the colors, the care you've put into your companion's appearance. Before breed assumptions take hold, they see the collar. They see personality. They see a dog worth approaching.

There's something disarming about a dog wearing a handcrafted beaded collar. It signals that this is a loved, cherished companion—not a threat. People relax. They smile. They want to get closer. A simple collar becomes a bridge between your dog and the world, softening first impressions and opening doors to connection that might otherwise stay closed.

Strong Materials & Adventure Proof Durability

Crafted with heavy-duty, multi strand aircraft-grade coated stainless steel cable and secured with aluminum crimping loop sleeves to handle the toughest conditions.

Designed intentionally for enthusiastic pullers and big dogs. Beauty meets unstoppable structure.

Lightweight Design:

Don't let the chunky, bold look fool you-our collars are engineered to be incredibly lightweight. By utilizing premium acrylic and resin beads, the entire collar weighs less than a standard wristwatch. Your dog gets all the style and maximum neck safety without any heavy, exhausting bulk dragging them down.

Waterproof & Odor-Free:

Muddy paws and spilled tailgate drinks are no problem. These smooth beads wipe clean instantly and never trap the dreaded wet-dog smell.

Easy to Clean:

No "wet dog" smell here. Our premium acrylic and resin beads don't trap water or bacteria. If it gets muddy on the trail, a quick rinse under the tap with a drop of dish soap make it runway-ready in 5 seconds.

Reduce Irritation & Skin Irritations:

Standard flat nylon, heavy leather, or woven rope collars constantly trap moisture against your dog's skin, leading to painful hot spots, raw chafing, and matted fur. Our collar architecture is entirely different. The perfectly smooth, rounded shape of our premium beads allows them to roll gently against the neck rather than sawing against it. By eliminating harsh fabric edges and preventing trapped dampness, it dramatically reduced friction, making it the ultimate safe, everyday choice for sensitive skin, short-haired pups, and thick double-coats alike.

Gentle on Sensitive Skin:

Designed to roll naturally against the neck, our beads prevent fur breakage, matting, and the painful chafing caused by standard flat collars.

Without a heavy metal buckle or plastic clip digging into the skin, the slip-on style offers a completely smooth, seamless ring of comfort. It won't pinch skin, trap moisture, or snag fur.

Instant ON and OFF

No more wrestling with traditional clasps or adjusting straps on a wriggly dog. It slides effortlessly over your pup's head in one second flat, making it the perfect, hassle-free collar.

Stackable & Designed to Layer and Collect:

Who says your pet can only rock one collar?
Double it up, triple it up—mix and match your POPNCO Collar with your current hardware or stack it with another beaded beauty.

It's the perfect way to let your pet's personality shine through with endless color and theme combinations. Plus, there's something undeniably stylish and confidence-boosting about a pet who's dressed to impress.

Have fun with it!
Layering collars is easier than ever, and your furry friend will love the extra flair.

Perfect ID and Accessory Frame:

Because it sits naturally around the neck when not on a leash it acts as a gorgeous, lightweight frame for your dogs custom tags. It gives your dog total main character energy while keeping them safe.

Handmade in B.C

Handcrafted and designed in British Columbia by a woman-owned maker. Every collar is thoughtfully created with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship.

"It is the ultimate peace of mind security for strong pullers, reactive pups, and big-breed powerhouses."

Choosing a Slip-on

This style has no buckle, so it must slide over the head. Simply measure the widest part of your dogs head (right around the ears/crown). If their head is larger than their neck, choose the size based on that heads measurement so it slips on comfortably!

Choosing a Buckle

Just measure the snug circumference of their mid-neck where the collar normally sits.

Benefits of the Slip on Style

The ultimate blend of effortless convenience, safety, and tag ready style. Our slip on collars are a massive favorite for pet parents for three major reasons.

-Zero Hardware Friction
-Instant On and OFF
-Perfect ID & Accessory Frame
