HALLOWEEN 2 - GUARDIAN Waterproof BioThane Tactical Dog Collar with Handle

HOW TO MEASURE:
Measure around the neck area they will wear the collar.
Don't forget to add a couple of fingers extra room so your buddy can breathe!

SIZING:
Collars have a sliding adjuster with a 4" range.
Order the size where your dog falls toward the center.
Ex: Dog wears an 18" collar, order the fits size 16-20"
This gives you room to adjust up or down.

HOW TO ADJUST:
Slide the adjustment buckle to the place on the collar that fits your dog. This adjustment may seem a little snug, but it's necessary to keep the sizing in place once you set it. Some buckles may have 2 slides to keep things snug.

**Please note that the end to end measurement of your collar will measure longer than the "fit" size you order. This is to account for the thickness and width of the collar.**

If a dirty collar exceeds your ick factor level, just run it under the sink to wash. Use a little anti-bacterial hand soap if necessary. It will dry quickly, or pat dry with a towel. If necessary, a Magic Eraser will also assist in dirt removal. We've never seen any other collar material hold up or clean up this well! 

All collars come with a genuine Raptor ™ clip.

All designs are made from durable vinyl and heat-bonded to the BioThane surface. Specified vinyl colors and designs feature a reflective finish to help improve visibility in low-light conditions.

Reflective Color Note: Reflective colors can look surprisingly ordinary in some lighting… you might even wonder if we got it wrong! But then the light hits just right, and WOW! There it is! ✨ We promise, we're not crazy—reflective vinyl just has a flair for the dramatic!

Want the BIGGEST reflective WOW? ✨ Silver is our brightest, most intensely reflective option—even in sunlight, it can practically make you squint! The other reflective colors can shine brilliantly too, but when it comes to pure reflective power, silver takes the crown! 👑

In our many years of making BioThane gear, we’ve never encountered a screw we couldn’t remove—although a small handful have given us a VERY hard time! Black screws seem to be the biggest offenders, as powder coating can make them more prone to sticking.
 

For this reason, we strongly recommend testing your handle/panel screws BEFORE ordering a replacement. These items are crafted to order, so we do not accept returns, and stuck screws are not a material defect.
 

A Few Tips From Us
 

Our go-to tool is an 8V electric screwdriver with serious torque. Sometimes, tightening a stuck screw just a little before backing it out does the trick!
 

A few other tips:
 

• Add some grip. Try a silicone mat or rubber jar opener to help protect the screw head and improve traction.

• Keep it straight. Make sure your screwdriver bit is firmly and squarely seated before applying pressure.

• Watch for heat. If the screw spins without coming out, it may get HOT. Let it cool completely before trying again.
   

Most screws come out without much drama. Every once in a while, though, you’ll meet that one screw. Don’t panic—it can usually be persuaded!
 

Not a fan of screws? No problem! Our designs are also available as Velcro patches. Just add a Velcro panel to your gear, and you can peel, stick, and switch up your look with ease!
 

And remember, there’s a reason we use screws! They create a strong, secure, durable design while letting you replace or refresh your handle or panel whenever you want a new look. Plenty of happy dog parents love the flexibility of customizing their gear.
 

So, while you may occasionally have to battle that one screw, you’re getting a tough, functional design built to keep up with your dog—and that’s worth celebrating! 🐾
