How To Measure Your Dog’s Neck Properly for Prong Collars

Measure your dog’s neck directly under the chin and up around the back of the ears. Location on the neck should be above where your pet’s regular buckle collar sits. Measure for a snug but not tight fit. When the collar is on the dog, you should be able to insert your little finger between a prong and the skin.

The Three Micro Prongs: Original, Ultra & Duro

Micro Prong collars were designed originally to fit small dogs, because the larger prongs on standard size collars were too far apart, causing both fit and effectiveness issues.   A Micro collar is made up of miniature prongs with a much shorter distance between them than typical prong collars.  The end result is a collar that is proportionally correct on a diminutive dog.  A Micro stays up under the jaw and on the safe part of the neck where it should be, without slipping down.  And it provides gentle, steady pressure when pulled against, eliminating the uneven, pointy feel of too few prongs on a small neck. 

In addition to working brilliantly for small dogs, many canine enthusiasts and trainers have discovered the benefits of using a Micro collar with their medium and large size dogs as well.  Micros are especially good for larger dogs with short, sleek coats, as standard sized collars tend to slip down on slippery fur.  The Micro stays in place better on these dogs and, when links are added, the increased number of prongs provides a more even, custom fit.  

A training collar is just no good unless it fits right and works right. All three of our Micro collar styles are specifically designed to custom fit different breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs.  Which one is right for your dog?  Here's a brief overview:

The Duro Micro Prong

For dogs over 25 lbs | Two-Welded Rings | 1.5mm

Our heaviest duty collar, for stronger pullers.

The Duro features a strong two-welded ring attachment instead of a swivel, which is more durable and can withstand heavier pulling than either the Original Micro or the Ultra Micro. Fits up to a 9” neck and weighs less than 1.5 ounces. Comes with 10 removable, handcrafted stainless steel links and stainless steel twisted chain.

Extra links may be ordered for neck sizes over 9”; see Fitting Guide on ‘Add on Links’.

Optional Comfort Tips are available to order as well.

Handcrafted in the USA.

Examples of breeds who do well in Duros are Beagles, Dobermans, French Bulldogs, Dalmatians, Boxers, Cairn Terriers, Basset Hounds, Airedales, Australian Cattle Dogs, Staffordshire Terriers and Weimeraners, to name just a few.

The Original Micro Prong

For dogs 6-26 lbs | Swivel | 1.5mm

Our light-weight, all-around Micro Prong collar at 1.5mm fits a large variety of small to medium-sized breeds. Designed for dogs between 6 and 26 pounds, it features a swivel leash attachment that is strong yet lightweight. The Original Micro is our most popular collar, and best suited for most dogs.

Fits up to a 9” neck and weighs less than 1.5 ounces. Comes with 10 removable, handcrafted stainless steel links and stainless steel twisted chain.

Extra links may be ordered for neck sizes over 9”; see Fitting Guide on ‘Add on Links’.

Optional Comfort Tips are available to order as well.

Handcrafted in the USA.

Examples of the size and strength of breeds that do well in Original Micros are Shiba Inus, Havanese, Klee Kai, Whippets, Westies, Schnauzers, Springer Spaniels, Norwich Terriers, and Australian Shepherds, to name just a few. 

The Ultra Micro Prong

For dogs under 6 pounds | Tiny Swivel | 1.5mm

Our tiniest collar for very light pullers.

The Ultra features an extraordinarily fine jewelry chain and tiny swivel attachment, making it feather light and ideal for very small and toy breeds. Fits up to a 7" neck and weighs less than 1.2 oz. Comes with 8 removable, handcrafted stainless steel links jewelry grade chain, and welded safety ring. Extra links may be ordered, although we recommend instead ordering the Original Micro Prong if you need a collar for a neck larger than 7". Check our Fitting Guide for your reference.

Optional Comfort Tips are available to order as well.

Handcrafted in the USA.

Examples of breeds who do well in Ultra Micros are Toy Fox Terriers, Chihuahuas, Japanese Chin, Brussels Griffon, Italian Greyhounds, Maltese, Miniature Pinschers, and Pomeranians, to name a few.
