Martingale or hound collars have been designed for dogs with large necks and small heads. Martingale collars were first used by owners of hunting dogs such as whippets and greyhounds, whose necks are larger than their heads. Martingale collars are sometimes called “greyhound collars” because they are designed for dogs whose head is narrower than the neck. They are most often seen on sighted greyhounds due to their unique streamlined head shape, which makes it easier for them to get out of the standard collar.
The Martingale collar is not a training collar; it is a protective measure to prevent the dog from slipping out of the collar. Although the martingale collar is not as commonly used as the “regular” flat buckle collar that most of us wear on dogs, it can be a useful tool for escape masters, or it can provide extra support for your whippet or greyhound when on a lead.
Use rope or tape measure to make sure your collar fits your dog. You will find that if you can insert one finger between your dog’s skin and collar (for small dogs), or if you can insert two fingers between your dog’s skin and collar (for large dogs).
We have a range of Hound collars from Dogs & Horses, they come in 7 different colours and 8 sizes, so there is something for all breeds and sizes.
We are of course more than happy to help should you have any questions regarding hound collars.

RatingNice products and services. I bought a cloud9 travel blanket and a coat for my border collie Dan for a 3 days hiking. Karen is super nice, helped me pick the products and also send gifts to Dan. He loves the snacks! The travel blanket is high quality and can be folded into a bag, which is very convenient especially on the train and in the tent. Overall, 10/10, would definitely choose Fletcher again.
Great experience buying and exchanging a dog coat for my pet. Karen went out of her way to make it easy to get the right product and the right fit. Excellent communication and extra effort greatly appreciated especially last minute at the holidays for me. Thank you.
Nicely packaged products, good quality. Highly recommended
I ordered a rolled leather collar for my puppy and I have to say the service i received was exceptional. I was contacted via whatsapp to ensure correct sizing and I honestly felt important and that my business was truly appreciated. The collar arrived in lovely gift wrapped paper and puppy got a complimentary blueberry chew which he loved. The collar was perfect and fitted like it had been made for him and he looks very dapper in it. I will most certainly recommend Fletchers of London in the future and I will be buying from them again. Thank you Fletchers, your service rocks !!!
Outstanding customer service, responded within an hour, ensured I got delivery on time. Nicely packaged products, good quality. Highly recommended
I bought a selection of toys for my two dogs and a friends dog and had a few questions about the best the new range of products they were stocking relating to quality. Customer service couldn’t have been more helpful so I placed the order and revised them after 2 days. Really happy with the products exactly as described and great customer experience
Karen is a shining example of what great looks like for helping customers, she hand delivered our dogs new collar a few days before Christmas and then came back the next day as it was the wrong size. She kept us fully updated throughout and was an absolute pleasure to deal with, nothing seemed to much for her. I cannot recommend Fletchers & Karen highly enough. You can see charlie sporting his proud new collar
Excellent customer service - My order arrived and was already wrapped up for Christmas without me even asking !
Loved all the products I bought! I will definitely return here for any of my dogs "needs" (mine) x
We ordered a lovely new Dogs and Horses collar for our whippet puppy. The price was great, and the collar arrived super quickly - a lot faster than advertised. Packaging was excellent and the after sales service was great. I can't recommend highly enough. We will be ordering the next size up from Fletchers, for sure!
We bought a lovely collar for our Springer spaniel from Fletcher of London. The customer service was brilliant. The wrapping/packaging around the collar was lovely and the collar itself suits our dog so well. We are really pleased with our purchase and would use this company again (the hand written note and treats were also a lovely touch and much appreciated, thank you)
Lovely collar and lead, beautifully made and presented. Very good value for money and very efficient and personal service. Will definitely be shopping again - soon.
Thank you so much for my purchase - absolutely love the collar, amazing quality.
