4. Sizing Guide

Accurate sizing is crucial for your dog's comfort and safety. Please follow these steps to measure your dog's neck:

1. Use a soft measuring tape to measure the circumference of your dog's neck at its widest point, typically around the middle of the neck where the collar will rest.
2. Ensure the tape is snug but not tight, allowing for two fingers to comfortably fit underneath.
3. Add 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) to this measurement to determine the appropriate collar length. This ensures a comfortable fit that is not too restrictive.
4. Refer to the size chart below to select the correct collar length.

6. Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your EMPERSTAR dog collar:

• Cleaning: Wipe the collar regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn grime, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
• Drying: Always ensure the collar is completely dry after cleaning or exposure to water to prevent water spots and maintain its luster.

If you encounter any issues with your EMPERSTAR dog collar, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Collar feels too tight or too loose: Re-measure your dog's neck and compare it to the sizing guide (Section 4). Ensure you have selected the correct size. The collar should allow two fingers to fit comfortably underneath.
• Safety lock is difficult to open/close: Ensure there is no dirt or debris obstructing the mechanism. Clean the lock thoroughly as described in Section 6. If the issue persists, inspect for any physical damage.
• Collar appears dull or discolored: Follow the cleaning instructions in Section 6. Regular cleaning and proper drying will help maintain the collar's shine.
