Why Piluzo Collars? 

Italian Greyhounds are the smallest of the sighthounds and, like their larger relatives, their long necks put their exposed tracheas at risk of injury.  For this reason, an Italian should wear a wide collar, like big greys and whippets do.  Thin collars pulled tight can crush an IG's trachea, Martingales hang too loose when not pulled tight and buckle hardware becomes large and bulky on wide collars.  We wanted our own IGs to wear the beautiful, wide collars that greys wear, but found the hardware was just too big for little Italian Greyhound necks.  

This is why we created the new Piluzo style of collar.  We hand make every collar using an industrial strength velcro closure instead of buckles, snaps or slips.  This gives your italian greyhounds a wide, beautiful collar that provides the neck protection they need without heavy hardware or a loose collar. These are not strictly "decorative" collars.  Piluzo style collars are very strong and are designed to be worn by your IG during any activity.  Your IG will not be able to pull the velcro apart and escape. We've thoroughly tested the collars on our boy Luca -18" tall and 20 pounds.
