How to select the size of an e-collar for a pet ?
If your pet has previously used an e-collar provided by a veterinary clinic, ask your veterinarian. Otherwise, first, use your pet's regular collar to obtain the length for the neck hole size (circumference of the e-collar). Be sure that you can fit two fingers comfortably between the collar and the neck. Ensure that the collar is not restricting breathing or swallowing.

Pet E-collars from e-collarsdirect are up to the task.The variety box contains two of each size of e-collar (from XXS to XXL)(a total of 14 e-collars/box), it is a great kit for veterinarians.
