The Best Colour for Your Dog

You might know the perfect shade for your four-legged companion. But if your still experimenting with hues, consider the following factors when choosing a colours:

  • Coat Color: Select colors that contrast with your dog’s coat for visibility. For instance, a black collar looks great on a light-colored dog and vice versa.

  • Personality: Reflect your dog’s personality through color. Energetic dogs shine in bright colors, while calm dogs better might suit softer tones.

  • Adventure: When your finding a path through the forest, lighter shades might pick up more dirt and require more frequent cleaning than darker colours.

  • Safety: Bright and reflective colors increase visibility during evening walks.
