Whippet/Greyhound/lurcher people....

[maisie]

...can anyone tell me where I can get the knitted collars that I keep seeing - mainly on greyhounds - as I would like them for my lurcher and whippet.
Thanks

Never seen one and I have 3 lurchers! Sure they're knitted and not embroidered bands or braid made into collars?

I was thinking the same. Do you mean something like this?

These are house collars. Which are material and really soft.

I got mine from here as they help fund the rescue, and they're very reasonable and get lots of compliments

The type I'm looking for (I think) is like the red one on the black dog in Haycrofts signature above

ive sent you a pm ..my dogs wearing the red collars are coursing collars...yes they are knitted but only for the use for cousing so the judge whos judgeing say which dog has won...as the other dog would have to wear a white or a blue if its a bye dog

these collars can not be used with a lead...

I don't know if they are actual collars. I think they use similar things to that for coursing to identify the dogs or you can buy fleece type neck warmers
