Ruffwear took that logic and made a collar. The 7mm rope sits low in the fur, and the reflective weave means it's doing quiet work even in low light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor dogs with longer coats, the rope tends to sit more gently than flat webbing — less pressure, less impression in the fur. Merlyn, a border collie who wore his for years, barely knew it was there. His owner did, though. And it did exactly what they needed it to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustment is via sliding fisherman's knots rather than a buckle — it takes a moment to learn and then you'll wonder why all collars don't work this way. The aluminium V-ring keeps the lead attachment at the top of the neck, where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the walk where everything just comes together.

Remove your dog's collar during play with other dogs, when they're home alone, and when they're in their crate. Check the fit regularly - two fingers between collar and neck is the sweet spot. Stay aware of your dog and their surroundings, and you'll keep the risks where they belong: minimal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0249\/3501\/files\/Border_collie_wearing_Ruffwear_Knot-a-Collar_in_Moss_Green.jpg?v=1781874740\" alt=\"Border collie wearing Ruffwear Knot-a-Collar in Moss Green with tag silencer, looking up alertly on a rocky trail at Smith Rock, Oregon\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile 7mm reflective rope settles comfortably into fur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSliding fisherman's knots for a fully adjustable, customised fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium V-ring keeps lead attachment at the top of the neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKernmantle rope construction — strong inner core, protective woven sheath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRope core made from repurposed waste yarns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Ring for easy tag attachment and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate ID tag attachment point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone tag silencer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRope: reflective polypropylene kernmantle rope with core made from repurposed waste yarns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: anodised 6061-T6 aluminium V-ring and belay plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone tag silencer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Vietnam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCare\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMild detergent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVideo\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p7ha-ooyAiM?si=qjh3VFaKs-mAIEV8\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruffwear","offers":[{"title":"Medium (14-20\") \/ Obsidian Black","offer_id":39498862559299,"sku":"","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium (14-20\") \/ Blue Pool","offer_id":1066375453,"sku":"RUFF-25602-0351420","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium (14-20\") \/ Fireweed Pink","offer_id":1066375461,"sku":"RUFF-25602-8551420","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium (14-20\") \/ Moss Green","offer_id":1066375469,"sku":"RUFF-25602-6151420","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large (20-26\") \/ Obsidian Black","offer_id":39498862592067,"sku":"","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large (20-26\") \/ Blue Pool","offer_id":1066375449,"sku":"RUFF-25602-0352026","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large (20-26\") \/ Fireweed Pink","offer_id":1066375457,"sku":"RUFF-25602-8552026","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large (20-26\") \/ Moss Green","offer_id":1066375465,"sku":"RUFF-25602-6152026","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0249\/3501\/files\/Ruffwear_Knot-a-Collar_dog_collar_in_Blue_Pool.jpg?v=1781874840","url":"https:\/\/barksandbunnies.co.uk\/products\/ruffwear-knot-a-collar","provider":"Barks \u0026 Bunnies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
