    Just bought Lady a new collar at Sainsbury's because her old one had a faulty clip. They had some nice looking ones so looked at the size guide and picked the one that said suitable for Labradors. All I can say is that Lady must be a midget amongst Labs because even on the smallest size I can slip the fastened collar over her head with my whole hand inside it without difficulty. ;D

    So what on earth did the model dog look like that they used as a Labrador size guide? :eek:

    On the up side at least she isn't going to get snagged by it in undergrowth.

    I must've bought the same collar....It's been riding around in my car for 6 months, waiting to be taken to the boot maker to get another hole punched in it....

    Use a 5 or 6" nail and a hammer, does a great job and saves you a trip out 8)
