FAQs


HOW DO I CHOOSE THE RIGHT COLLAR SIZE FOR MY DOG?

Follow our easy step by step guide.  Due to rope's 3D nature, we have to measure for our collars a little differently, so take care to thoroughly read & follow our guide and email us with any questions laura@oonalfie.com

ARE OONALFIE'S DOG COLLARS BEST FOR SMALL OR LARGE DOGS?

Oonalfie adapts the design to be comfortable and safe for different sized breeds from Iris Wolf Hounds to Miniature Dachshunds.  Both the collar clips and rope sizes are adjusted to ensure that our collars fit your dog comfortably and safely.  Collars made fro smaller breeds will use a smaller clasp and thinner rope, whereas a larger clasp and thicker rope is used for larger breeds.

HOW LONG WILL DO YOUR DOG COLLARS LAST?

Most of our collars are still going strong at 5 years.  We also offer a deep cleaning service and restoration package for your Oonalfie dog collar, to ensure it stays looking and working in tip top condition.  We still have customers who's collars are near the 8 year mark and still looking and working great. Our solid bronze clasps, will not rust or tarnish.

IS ROPE DOG COLLAR BETTER THAN LEATHER ONE?

We use high grade marine rope to create all of our rope products.  This rope is designed to be in and out of water and be durable against abrasion.  We have researched not only the weave but the surface finish on many ropes but have chosen the one we use for it's silky soft touch and incredible resistance to wear. Leather, in contrast struggles in water and wet environments and unless regularly sealed, will begin to break down fibres within a few months of wear.
