Gear built around your dog.
I’m Christine, and I sew every collar and Fi adapter myself in Willow, Alaska. Working in small batches is how I keep this one-person shop open and give your dog’s gear the care it takes to last. Orders are welcome anytime. I make your gear in the batch shown when you order. Most collars and adapters ship within two weeks of that date, often sooner.
Production dates & shipping

Small batches. Clear expectations.
Collars and Fi adapters are made in small, regularly scheduled batches. The dates below show when production begins and when most orders leave my shop.

Review your dates before paying. Your completed order keeps its confirmed batch; adding an item to your cart does not hold a place.
I don’t offer rush production. Faster postage changes delivery time after shipping; it does not move your order ahead in the batch.

I’m taking a production break in early December.

Made in Willow, Alaska
It started with a broken collar.
The collars on our sled dogs kept failing. That experience inspired the everyday collars we now make to order for your dog, with fit and function at the center of every choice.
Meet Elite Dog Gear →Find the right setup
Let’s find your dog’s gear.
A few choices will help us narrow it down.
You can order anytime. Check the production date for your collar or Fi adapter before you pay. Tag-only orders ship within 3 business days.
Your dog’s setup
Start with your dog
What does your dog normally wear?
Start with the gear your dog already wears.
Compatibility, when it matters
Does your dog use a Fi tracker?
Already have a Fi tracker? We’ll check compatibility.
Fi compatibility
Which Fi does your dog use?
The compatible adapter options differ by tracker, so this keeps us from recommending the wrong setup.
You already use Fi
How would you like your dog to wear Fi?
No Fi yet
Are you interested in adding Fi tracking?
No pressure. See how Fi could fit your dog’s setup, or continue without it.
Fi, if it fits your needs
Fi can fit into the setup your dog already uses.
Choose a Fi-compatible collar, use an adapter with existing gear, or continue without Fi if tracking isn’t right for you.
Choose the tracker first
Which Fi are you considering?
This does not add anything to your cart. It simply lets us match the next gear choices correctly.
Gear first
What does your dog normally wear?
We’ll build around what already works for your dog.
Keep what already works
Where would the Fi adapter be mounted?
We’ll match the Fi option to the gear your dog already wears.
How do you prefer to put the collar on?
Does your dog back out of their collar?
Let’s make the closure choice clearer.
Has their collar ever slipped toward their ears or come off when they backed away?
A correctly fitted Martingale limits loosening when your dog backs up. It can have a buckle or slip over the head.
One more thing about your dog
Which color feels most like your dog?
Tap their color below. We’ll keep fit and function first, then look for this preference wherever it’s available.
Available colors vary by collar style and width. Your choice is carried forward as a preference—not used to hide compatible gear.

How batch ordering works
How does batch ordering work?
Choose your collar or adapter, review its production start date and usual shipping window, then complete checkout. Your completed order joins the batch shown. Adding an item to your cart does not hold a place.
What happens when a batch fills?
When a batch fills, the next scheduled batch with spots is shown for that item. Orders already placed keep their confirmed batch. If no spots are available, check back here for the next opening.
When will my order ship?
Most orders leave my shop within two weeks of the production start date, often sooner. This is when I begin making your gear, not a delivery date. Delivery time is additional.
Will a nameplate take longer?
Orders with nameplates may take longer because I need the plate to arrive before shipping your finished gear. Your order keeps its batch. Email me with your order number if you need an update.
Can I request a rush order?
I don’t offer rush production. Small batches protect the care I put into each piece and keep the workload manageable. Faster postage changes delivery time after shipping; it does not move your order ahead in the batch.
Do ID tags need a batch place?
No. Tag-only orders ship within 3 business days of ordering. A tag ordered with your collar or Fi adapter ships with your gear. A nameplate may take longer while I wait for it to arrive.
Will items in my order ship together?
Normally, yes. Items ordered together ship when everything is ready. If they have different production start dates, use the later batch’s shipping window. A nameplate may extend that window.
What if I’ve already placed an order?
Your order keeps the production timing confirmed when you purchased. New batch dates apply to new orders and do not automatically move an existing order. Check your order confirmation, or email me with your order number.
