Product Questions

These have been thoroughly tested on both a 50-pound lab and a 13-pound pug. Both dogs have reported back to us that their confidence levels have skyrocketed, all the other dogs in the neighborhood are jealous of their classic style, and they feel quite comfortable with the durability and strength of their Mimi Green collar and leash. We use super-strong materials and hardware, but please note our products are not warrantied for tie-out use.

Yes! And we totally recommend getting the exact fit, especially if your dog is between a medium & a large. Just let us know that you need a custom collar length in the notes section at checkout. But please make sure you measure well as we do not accept returns or exchanges.

Of course! Just contact us and we will do anything we can to make our leashes or collars perfect for your pet.

The pattern on the fabric will be slightly different than pictured, as each one is a totally original creation, made just for your dog! You will probably be super happy with the one we send you. If you aren’t, please send us an email to shop@mimigreen.com, preferably with an attached photo of the item. Our embroidered items are embroidered by hand, so we cannot guarantee a specific font requested. We do embroider in cursive letters, unless print is requested. Please do not send us personalized items without receving authorization to do so. Your item will be returned to you.

We always use washable fabrics and suggest you wash them in the dishwasher or on the gentle cycle of your washing machine. You can also hand-wash with a mild detergent or shampoo. Hang dry of course; as you would will all your own designer wear!

    Well, they are all pretty awesome collars, but it really depends on what kind of dog you have…
  • Our Oilcloth Dog Collars are really great for big dogs, dogs that swim, and dogs that like to play rough — but still want to be fashionable!
  • Our Hand Embroidered Personalized Dog Collars are super fun for that dog and owner who like to stand out in a crowd. One cool part about the hand embroidery of your dog’s name is that we can do it on just about any of our collars! Like our…
  • Mimi Green Classic Collars are super cool because they each have up to 3 different fabrics — it is a different collar from every angle! Just about any dog would feel super pretty and stylish in these collars.
  • Our Swiss Velvet Collar line is awesome because it looks like a super fancy collar, but it is still washable and pretty stain resistant.
  • And last, but not least, our Webbing Collar Collection is totally different from any webbing collars you have ever seen! They are super thick and the colors are really striking. They are great collars for big and small dogs and you can rest easy about your dog’s safety as the webbing on these collars can withstand 3100 lbs of pressure!
      • If you are used to the Mimi Green nylon webbing, MG2 poly will be significantly different. Thiner and lighter weight, the poly is very tightly woven and still extraordinarily strong.  Both types of webbing are the best in their class on the market today.
      • MG2 utilizes military grade plastic d rings instead of metal like Mimi Green. We find this is totally a matter of preference, plastic makes less noise, is lighter weight but can be chewed if your dog gets ahold of its collar.  Both are strong enough for leash walking/running.
      • MG2 seams are on the front of the collar while Mimi Green seams are on the back. Sewing them on the front helps with breeds that have a lot of hair or none at all — no tangling or irritation. Seams on the front look a little more rugged, on the back look a little more tailored.
      • MG2 collars have fewer font options, color options and buckle options.
      • MG2 is a budget friendly line while MImi Green is our designer line.
