Dog Clothes Fashion Trends

The latest fashion trend in dog accessories is the beaded dog collar.  A dog collar doesn't need to be just practical.  It can be a fancy dog collar that is made with an elaborate design and lots of expensive beadwork, or it can be very simple.  Either way, it really dresses up your dog in a very easy way.

Types of Dog Collars

Most dog collar you already know about.  They are the soft vinyl collars that are hanging in the big box stores or at the local pet shop.  They are usually nothing to write home about.  They are in a solid color or have a little design on them and cost around $5 - $10 each.

Cute Dog Collars

A very cute dog collar is one that is handmade by an artist like a beaded dog collar.  The artist uses special crystal beads in various finished and colors and hand sews the design.  A simple beaded design for a small beaded dog collar will cost around $40, depending on the labor involved and the materials used.  An elaborate one can cost many hundreds of dollars because the materials are finer and require many hours of beading to make them.

Keepsakes

A beautiful dog collar is a wonderful keepsake.  Many years down the road when your dog passes on, you'll still have his or her collar to remember them by.  You can have it framed in a shadowbox along with their favorite toy, maybe a favorite dog shirt and the collar.  A dog collar is something much more that just something that is attached to a leash.  It is more of a piece of jewelry that is owned by your little dog.
