Caring for your pieces
How you look after your collars and leads will affect their longevity. Cotton is a natural fibre and requires a little tlc to keep it looking good.
- for light dirt removal, use a wet wipe (preferably compostable) and gently wipe the area affected until clean. Let it dry naturally, not in the sunlight as this can fade the colour.
- for heavier dirt or mud, hand wash in luke warm water using a gentle cleaning agent such as hand soap or a touch of washing up liquid. Let soak for a few minutes, you’ll find most of the dirt will naturally come away. Then lightly rub the rest off until completely gone.
Wring it out and leave to dry naturally.
