That might be the best idea!

I have to admit, I do like colourful collars but that's not the priority really.

He'll be 12 weeks by the time he comes home, so Im kinda stuck on size. I know its best to measure their neck for an accurate sizing, but I wanted to have a collar ready for when he got here so is there are 'general' size recommendation or will I be best to just wait and measure him?

Thanks
Why not ring the breeder a week before and ask them to measure him, should give you enough time to order one.

Re: best first collar for a puppy

Pets at home do a puppy collar and lead set. We got Peppa a plain red one nylon one which she is very comfortable with. It has no button holes but is a buckle so you just push the pin through

Re: best first collar for a puppy

When we had our first whippet Jasper we bought a little leather puppy collar. Jasper is now 11 years old and every whippet we have had since then has worn that collar at some point with the exception of the ones that came to us as older dogs although I seem to remember Bandit wearing. Even setter Zoe wore it when she first came to us.

The iggies haven't worn it as it was way too big for them and I don't suppose Tabitha and ??????? will wear it either for the same reason.

Lily wore a cat collar until she started going for walks then we managed to get a tiny puppy collar for her.
