A cross between a Shih Tzu and a Yorkshire Terrier, Shorkies are full of character and spunk in a compact size! It can be tough to find that just-right collar for a mixed breed, so here are best collars perfect for Shorkies.

Shorkies are cute, alright, and they know it. And, because they are small, you have to be careful with collars because you can damage their windpipes as they exuberantly (and sometimes stubbornly) play. Most collars are more for form, than function, but many choose to use collars and harnesses combined to carry information.

This fun personalized collar allows you to add a bit of bling, making your dog’s collar a one-of-a-kind creation that they can proudly show off. The collar itself is made from soft PU leather, making it comfortable for your dog to wear while you’re out and about. While the collar is durable, the rhinestone letters are not designed for day-to-day wear. Like your favorite jewellery, this collar is for special occasions!

The collar comes in a variety of colors and sizes, ranging from 8” to 18”, guaranteeing that they will have the right fit for your Shorkie. It can be personalized with up to 7 rhinestone charms, including letters as well as fun accent charms such as a heart, bone, or crown. Are you looking for the perfect combination of glitz and punk? You can also add a bling skull to your dog’s collar! Show off their personality in style.

A dog’s collar shouldn’t be too tight as it can chafe and can hurt your pet, but if it’s too loose, it beats the purpose- it will easily slide over their head and your pet can get lost in an instant. A good rule of thumb is that you should be able to place two fingers between your dog’s neck and the collar when it is already snug. This way, you know that your pooch is comfy and that the collar will stay firmly in place!

Dog collars need to be cleaned regularly, but they are made from a variety of materials so there isn’t a universal rule to follow, except for using pet-safe products for cleaning. Collars made from natural materials such as cotton can be brushed with some dish soap and water, whereas nylon dog collars can be washed on gentle cycle in the washing machine in a protective bag (but only if the hardware is not prone to rusting). For leather, you can use a mixture of 50:50 of water and white vinegar for disinfection and removal of any tough grime or bodily oils- just be sure to condition it when it’s dry if it’s genuine leather.
