But why is this collar called, "Elizabeth Circle" so long name? Invented by Queen Elizabeth?
Take a look at the following pictures and you will know.
Yes, the reason why it is called the Elizabethan circle is simply because it looks very similar to the British neckline that prevailed during the Elizabethan period.
The brain hole of the person who named it is also not small, and this circle with gorgeous names has another name - the circle of shame.
The name comes from the animated film Flying House.
Doug, the puppy in the play, was put on a "cone of shame" by his companions for releasing the giant bird, which translates to "circle of shame". With the wide spread of the film, the name "circle of shame" also spread.
Mainly because this will affect the auditory and visual range, and restrict movement. In the eyes of pets, it should be "punished", it will be very "shameful"...
So, how do you choose the Elizabethan Circle?
1. Measure the size of the neck circumference of the pet with a soft ruler, and then select the size of the inner ring, in addition, for the cat, you also have to measure the length from the middle of the nose tip to the tip of the beard, and use this as a reference for the radius of the outer ring.
2. Some pets may have a thin neck, head and mouth are relatively long, you choose the Elizabeth circle, it is difficult to refer to the appropriate size, then close to the nearest inner ring size or depth, and then improve it appropriately.
3. Too big will affect the dog's movements, too small if the dog can still bite. So the length of the Elizabethan circle is slightly longer than the dog's face and mouth.
It is especially important to note that cats and dogs generally reject the Elizabethan circle, because it will certainly be uncomfortable to wear. When you have to give them an Elizabethan hoop,
Don't laugh at them, praise them more and reduce their stigma.
At the same time, be careful not to give up wearing elizabethan rings for them because they are uncomfortable to see them, or because they are spoiled, especially when cats or dogs have done surgery and the wounds have not healed, if you let them lick the wounds and cause inflammation, you will regret more than a little.
