Sighthound Collars by Maul

Sighthound collars from Maul – handmade leather collars for slender necks

Discover sighthound collars from Maul Ledermanufaktur at Don Lorino: handmade leather collars with a wide, shaped centre section for the sighthound's long, slender neck. Here you will find collars for greyhounds, whippets, Italian greyhounds and other sighthounds, from clean, classic models to collars with decorative details.

Why do sighthounds need special collars?

Sighthounds often have a narrow head, a long neck and a short coat. A narrow dog collar concentrates pressure on a small part of the neck and can more easily slip over the head. A wide sighthound collar spreads the load over a larger area and tapers towards the buckle, so it sits securely without feeling bulky at the fastening.

Maul's collars have softly padded edges that reduce friction against skin and coat. This is especially valuable for short-coated sighthounds and dogs with sensitive skin.

Handmade in leather

The collars are handmade in Germany by Maul Ledermanufaktur, in nubuck or nappa leather depending on model and colour. Nubuck has a soft, velvety surface, while nappa is smoother. Leather is a natural material, so small variations in texture and colour occur.

Choose a model

Klassisk

The Klassisk sighthound collar is the clean option without prominent decorations. The shaped silhouette and the leather take centre stage, and the gold-coloured hardware gives a warm overall look.

Borte

The Borte sighthound collar combines the wide shape with a decorative band that contrasts with the leather. Colours and bands differ between variants, so check the images for the combination you choose.

Sunrise

The Sunrise sighthound collar has set, sparkling crystals that give the collar a more festive look, with the same ergonomic shape as the other models. Check the crystals and settings regularly.

Diamond

The Diamond sighthound collar is decorated with fleur-de-lis, sparkling stones and a larger stone in the centre. It is available in black leather and chocolate brown nubuck with silver-coloured hardware, and in taupe with gold-coloured hardware. Sizes 30, 37, 40 and 48 cm make the model suitable for both smaller and larger sighthounds.

Collars for greyhounds, whippets and Italian greyhounds

Greyhound collars

The greyhound is a large sighthound with a long neck and a head that is often not much wider than the neck. A greyhound collar therefore needs to be wide enough to spread the pressure and fit so that it cannot slip over the head. Choose a size where your dog's neck measurement falls within the adjustment range, not on the last hole. The same wide shape often also suits galgos, salukis, azawakhs and other dogs with a long, slender neck.

Whippet collars

A whippet has a narrow head, a long neck and a short coat. Many whippets fit Maul's sighthound collars, but always choose by neck measurement and the widest part of the head, not by breed. A slight whippet and a sturdier one may need different sizes.

Italian greyhound collars

The Italian greyhound is considerably more petite. Maul's smallest sizes may fit some dogs, but not all. Compare your dog's neck measurement with the size information and keep in mind that the hardware should be in proportion to a small dog.

Size and fit

Klassisk, Borte and Sunrise are available in 37, 40 and 48 cm and Diamond in 30, 37, 40 and 48 cm. Always compare with the size information on each product page. Measure around the neck where the collar will sit, using a soft tape measure that lies snugly without being pulled tight, and check that the collar cannot slip over the head.

In our guide How to choose the right sighthound collar we go step by step through how to measure, how the collar should fit and what to check before use. Also read our care advice for leather collars.

Sighthound collar or half-check collar?

The collars in this category close with a buckle and adjust within the model's range. A half-check collar usually has no buckle, is pulled over the head and tightens to a set point when the leash is under tension. Which suits best depends on your dog's head shape and behaviour. See our half-check collars from Maul Ledermanufaktur or read more about half-check collars.

Match with a leather leash

A round-stitched leather leash from Maul Ledermanufaktur gives a delicate look that suits the sighthound's lines. Choose a leash in nappa leather or nubuck leather. The nubuck leash comes in the same nubuck colours as Sunrise. Match the colour and metal finish with the collar, and check that the snap hook fits the collar's D-ring.
