Lovebug Collars

At Lovebug Collars, quality is our mission. No matter what you’re looking for, we’re committed to bringing you exactly what you need, when you need it. Our customers love working with us because we produce high-quality products. All handmade to order in Connecticut.

OUR PRODUCTS

Lovebug Collars are created using 100% cotton fabric (flannel for our winter pups) wrapped and sewn over nylon. This structure allows us to offer the strongest collars with the most customizable designs. We offer you a choice of plastic or metal hardware for our standard collars, with heavy-duty metal for our Martingale-type collars. Each collar is lovingly handcrafted right here in Connecticut.

ABOUT US

Lovebug Collars is named after a dog myself and a friend rescued in the woods of Waterbury, CT. She was a throw away mama and left to fend for herself. She was such a sweat heart, I named her Lovebug. She spent 7 days at the Waterbury pound, the day her hold was up….we were there waiting for her. We secured a foster, which became her forever home.

This is Lovebug (aka Stella Bella) the day we found her. My logo is a little version of her and my first personal dog. The chest of my logo is a heart, dogs are my whole heart.

I Love Used Dogs - Sweatshirt
from $30.00

Sometimes the best ideas start with a simple conversation between friends…

One friend had an idea.
Another friend took that idea and brought it to life.

And just like that… I ❤️ USED DOGS was born. 

This isn’t just a saying. It’s a reminder that dogs don’t have to be brand new to be absolutely amazing.

They may come with a past.
They may come with a few quirks.
They may come with scars, stories, and lessons learned.

But they also come with LOVE.
So much love.

Because USED doesn’t mean unwanted.
USED doesn’t mean broken.
USED means someone has loved them before.

And now we’re on a mission to help more people fall in love with the dogs who are waiting for their second chance.

To ensure you have an accurate fit, carefully choose your size based on the measurements in our size chart. We recommend going with your usual size or sizing up if you would like an oversized fit.

All designs are created using the Direct to Film (DTF) printing process, which
transfers prints onto fabric or other substrates using a heat press.

Wash & Care Instructions:

  • To avoid fading or any issues with the print, wash inside out, in cold water, on the gentle cycle.

  • Tumble dry on low or let air dry.

  • Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.

  • Do not dry clean. Avoid ironing on the design.
