The making of itThe story behind the piece, and why we chose it
There is something quietly wonderful about a small dog who knows they look the part. Whether your miniature dachshund is trotting through autumn leaves or your toy poodle is drawing admiring glances at the farmers' market, the right collar becomes part of who they are, worn with the same unselfconscious ease as a favourite coat.
Each Enchanted Forest collar is hand-spliced by Laura in her Oxfordshire studio, working in small batches with a rope construction that gives the collar its distinctive softness and sculptural finish. The carefully chosen colour palette, deep forest greens wound through with earthy tones, is achieved using yarn selected for both its visual depth and its gentle contact against fine fur and delicate skin.
Rope collars of this construction wear beautifully over time, resisting the fraying and stiffening that plagues lesser alternatives, and the spliced join means there is no raw edge to catch or irritate. Because Laura works to order in small batches, Orders are typically dispatched within 8-10 days.
Why we chose this
Laura's hand-splicing technique produces a collar with a softness and structure you simply cannot achieve at scale, and the Enchanted Forest colourway is the kind of thing small-dog owners stop to photograph.
Size & fitMeasurements and how to fit
Available in two sizes. All measurements are internal circumference - measure around the inside of your dog's current collar, not around the neck. The 3D nature of the rope means measuring an existing collar gives a more accurate fit.
Miniature (6 mm rope): 22 - 26 cm | Petite (8 mm rope): 27 - 31 cm

The collar is constructed from a tightly twisted rope yarn chosen for its softness against skin, with a hand-spliced loop join that eliminates the stiff hardware-through-fabric construction found on standard collars. The Enchanted Forest colourway runs deep woodland greens through the braid, giving the finished piece a richness that photographs beautifully and holds its colour with regular wear.
CareCleaning and everyday care
Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent, reshaping the rope while damp and leaving to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing, which can distort the hand-spliced construction. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient for everyday mud and light soiling between washes.
QuestionsAnswers to common questions
What size Small Rope Dog Collar - Enchanted Forest does my dog need, and how do I measure?
Available in two sizes. Measurements are internal circumference (the size of the finished collar loop). Because our collars are crafted from 3D rope, the most accurate way to size is to measure the internal circumference of a collar your dog already wears comfortably. If your dog has no collar, measure gently around the base of the neck where the collar will sit, keeping the tape comfortably snug, then choose the size whose range includes your measurement.
Miniature (6 mm rope): 22 - 26 cm | Petite (8 mm rope): 27 - 31 cm
Final check: a correctly sized collar should not pull easily over your dog's head. Prefer an exact fit? Custom sizes (in cm) are available at no extra cost. Add your measurement in the order notes at checkout, or email us and we will craft it to size.
