For the pup with a rebellious streak, the Ahoy There dog collar is the perfect fit. Handcrafted from soft Italian leather, this collar is decked out with a mix of silver skull and crossbones studs and genuine Swarovski crystals. The result? A bold, swashbuckling style that’ll have your dog turning heads wherever they go.

Each collar is made to order, so you can choose the leather colour and crystal combination that best suits your dog’s personality. Every stud and crystal is securely hand-riveted into place, so you won’t have to worry about them falling out when your dog’s out adventuring.

Soft leather lining and smooth rounded edges make this collar as comfy as it is stylish, while a strong leather core and solid stainless steel hardware ensure it’ll stand the test of time.

The Ahoy There collar is available in a range of widths and sizes to fit most breeds. If you’d like to complete the look, you can pair it with a matching leather lead—plain or crystal-studded at the base.

Find Your Size

Neck measurement — around the middle of the neck

Wrap a soft tape measure around the middle of the neck, so that it's loosely touching the fur. Don't add any fingers underneath the tape measure. If you don't have a tape measure, a piece of string and a ruler works just as well.

Please enter a valid measurement.

Recommended Size

Your measurement sits at the join between two of our standard sizes. Both the will fit. If you'd like to get in touch we can make a tailor-made size that's the perfect fit for your dog.

Perfect for breeds such as: Bulldog, Manchester Terrier, Parson Russell Terrier, Rottweiler, Skye Terrier

How to measure your dog's neck

  • Wrap a soft tape measure around the middle of your dog's neck, held fairly snug against the fur.
  • Note the measurement in inches — this is your dog's neck measurement.
  • Choose the size where that measurement falls within the range, ideally towards the smaller end to allow for adjustment.

Example:
If your dog's neck measures 10", choose the 9" to 11" size. This means the collar adjusts between 9 and 11 inches — it does not mean the total length of the collar is 11".

If measuring from an existing collar, measure from the end of the leather to the hole you use — not the total length of the collar. The total length will result in a collar that's too big.

If you're unsure which size is right for your dog, please get in touch — we're happy to help.

Customise your collar

Each and every collar we sell is handmade to order by us, for you.

To create a collar as individual as your dog, simply pick your leather and your Swarovski crystal colours, and we'll do the rest.

Petiquette leather dog collar colour chart showing all 28 Italian calf leather shades available to order: Acorn, Baby Blue, Baby Pink, Black, Bottle Green, Candyfloss, Chianti, Daffodil, Dove, Dusky Pink, Easter Rose, Jaffa, Lime, Madeira Blue, Mushroom, Olive, Peanut Butter, Purple Velvet, Royal Purple, Ruby, School Grey, Shamrock, Signal Blue, Spearmint, Teal, Thistle, White, and Willow.

A note on shades. Each hide is naturally a little individual, which is part of what makes your collar unique. These are photographed in natural daylight and are as faithful as we can get them. Screen brightness can shift things slightly, so if you want to double-check a shade before ordering, just get in touch.

Petiquette Swarovski crystal colour options for dog collars, showing all ten genuine Austrian-cut Swarovski crystal shades available: Aquamarine, Amethyst, Crystal, Crystal AB, Emerald, Light Colorado Topaz, Light Siam, Rose, Sapphire, and Silver Night.

A favourite for a reason. If you're struggling to choose which colour of crystal to choose, we always recommend starting with Crystal. It's diamond-like sparkle picks up the colours of any neighbouring colours, and goes with everything. It's a brilliant starting point if you're finding it hard to choose.

FAQs

How long will my order take?

All collars and leads are made to order. We typically dispatch within 7 working days, with Royal Mail Tracked 48 adding 2–3 further working days in the UK. Most orders arrive within 5–10 working days. A dispatch notification is sent by email. If you need a collar by a specific date, contact us before ordering.

Can I exchange my collar if it doesn't fit?

Yes. If the collar doesn't fit when it arrives, you can exchange it for a different size. The most common reason for a poor fit is measuring the total length of an existing collar rather than the dog's neck directly. Full details are on our returns and exchanges page at petiquettecollars.co.uk/returns.

Are the crystals secure enough for everyday wear?

Every Swarovski crystal is individually secured by hand in our Northumberland workshop. We’ve had customers wearing the same Chaos Theory collar for years of daily walks without losing a stone. If you do ever lose one, get in touch and we’ll do our best to help.

What’s the difference between Crystal and Crystal AB?

Crystal is a clear, bright stone that catches the light cleanly and works beautifully against any leather colour. Crystal AB has a special iridescent coating that shifts colour depending on the angle and the light around it, picking up whatever shade is nearby. Both are stunning, and both are available as the large stone on your collar. If you’re torn, drop us a message and we’ll help you choose based on your leather colour.

What leather colours can my collar be made in?

Your leather collar can be made in 28 Italian leather colours: Acorn, Baby Blue, Baby Pink, Black, Bottle Green, Candyfloss, Chianti, Daffodil, Dove, Dusky Pink, Easter Rose, Jaffa, Lime, Madeira Blue, Mushroom, Olive, Peanut Butter, Purple Velvet, Royal Purple, Ruby, School Grey, Shamrock, Signal Blue, Spearmint, Teal, Thistle, White, and Willow.

Brilliant as always
I bought my first Petiquette collar 7 years ago (another Ahoy There, the review is still on the page and it still looks fantastic!). The leather has changed over the years but not the quality. Looks stunning on my Bulldog. Thank you!

Good Quality Collars
Loved the collar from Petiquette - unfortunately I picked a size too big and my dog can't use it, but that was my bad. The collar itself was beautiful.

Shiver me timbers Shop mates!
I have just bought matching 'Ahoy There' collars for my 4 mini smooth haired Dachshunds and my motley crew now look fab! Before I discovered P'etiquette I used to but my collars in a well known Knightsbridge store but the choice, the ability to mix and match styles with colours etc provided by P'etiquette blow them out of the water!

Gorgeous collar and a fabulous service!
Recieved Harli's collar today. She's an all black mini schnauzer and she now looks so cool ! Chose tangerine with black crystals and it looks great against her fur. It's really well made. And the service was brilliant as I wanted a slightly wider collar than was offered . If you want a collar that makes your dog stand out from all the rest choose p'etequette . I can't wait till Christmas to buy her another festive one !

Perfect for my saucy girlie
I'm not a huge pirate or skull/crossbone fan, but I ordered this collar in pink as shown in the photo for my little girlie who has the face of an angel and the mouth of a sailor. The combination of bling and skull/crossbones is perfect for her LOL. I was pleasantly surprised when I received it. The skull/crossbone deco's aren't as large as I had imagined so do look quite sweet (if you can use that descripion) on the 'girlie' collar. Yet are still enough to look 'manly' on the boy ones. Quality is awesome as always. You know we love your work.

Excellent quality and service!
I bought this collar for Mr. Fox my Spitz cross in black italian leather and light colarado topaz and it suits him perfectly. He's a chewer at the mo and so far hes not even tried to have a go! I also got he matching plain lead which is light to carry but robust. Dont be afraid to email with questions, Geoff has been nothing but helpful! Ive had nothing but compliments and will be looking to get a harness to match!

Love it!
I ordered this collar in pink, as shown on the website, as it was a really cute design- I loved the contrast between the feminine pink and the skull and crossbones charms. As usual from p'etiquette, the collar is well made and attractive, but I didn't feel the design was as well shown off as it could be on the narrow leather I had selected for my small dog. Since the price was so good, I decided to order a second collar, this time with the slightly wider 5/8 leather, in tangerine with black crystals. It looks amazing! The width is perfect with the decoration, the colour of the leather is lovely and vibrant, and looks great with the contrasting dark crystals and silver charms. I also asked Geoff not to bother riveting the buckle holes as Evie is only small and doesn't pull- it looks brilliant, really showing off the quality of the leather. Thanks so much! :-)

Excellent customer service and a gorgeous collar
I purchased one of these in Tan with sapphire for my Labrador and couldn't be happier! Breeze is between sizes so I emailed Geoff on sunday night and received a reply within minutes with advice and offering to adjust the length to my requirements; very impressed. I ordered on monday morning and the collar arrived on tuesday. The collar fits perfectly, looks amazing and feels like it will last a long time. Would definitely buy from P'etiquette again and recommend to friends!

Fantastic quality & very fast & helpful service
I bought this collar for my bulldog called Pirate he has worn it on a regular basis for the past 5 months & it still looks new. The collar is very soft & has the added bonus of being lined on the inside so there is no rough bits to rub on his neck. The packaging for the collar was such a suprise when it arrived in a lovely box. We have had so many nice comments about his collar & how unusual it is.

Looks fabulous and finished to a high standard.
I received the collar and lead I ordered in a gorgeous gift box (so gorgeous I thought my boyfriend had surprised me) and was not disappointed when I saw the items. The lead and collar are made up in lovely thick leather and are robustly put together. Elvis our Boston looks amazing in his collar. This is the best one he has had and well worth spending that wee bit more.
