“Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful.
He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the meaning of devotion.
With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace.
He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant.
His head on my knee can heal my human hurts.
His presence by my side is protection against my fears
of dark and unknown things.
He has promised to wait for me… whenever… wherever, in case I need him.
And I expect I will – as I always have.
He is just my dog.”
The Idea
Opening in 2016, Elvira’s Collars was founded on the need for durable collars that looked great without breaking a budget. We set out to track down sturdy materials and a solid know-how in order to create a collar that would both stand up to tough dogs and looked gorgeous while doing it. Our first collar was made for our sixty pound American Bully and she put it through the ringer. We still have that same collar. It's dingy and dirty but we use it.
Style & Quality
Each collar is specifically crafted with strong dogs in mind. The last thing we want to worry about, as pet owners, is an equipment failure. Our plastic snap buckles are made with strength in mind and our metal rings have a break-weight of over 300 pounds. Collars are sewn on an industrial Singer sewing machine. This machine is designed to go through the layers of materials that we use, so there won't be any loose or broken stitches. The thread used in a heavy weight thread and all weak points are reinforced.
100% Handmade
All collars ordered from Elvira’s Collars are made in our home with the love and quality control that is lacking in the big box stores. Every collar sewn here is inspected by two people and given a stress test to ensure that each collar lives up to our standards. We love what we do here and it shows in our work. If you have any questions about your collar or about ordering, please do not hesitate to contact us!
