Description
Christmas morning, six thirty, three children and a large dog in the middle of all of it convinced the wrapping paper is for him. That is the scene, and it is where this bow tie earns its place: reindeer faces with rosy cheeks and small antlers on a snowy white base, sized big enough that it still shows up in a photo taken at speed by someone who has not had coffee yet.
It is also the one for the Santa photo appointment, the December pet shop queue and the school gate in the last week of term, where a large dog in a reindeer bow tie is going to be spoken to by approximately everybody.
Sailor, and why that is the right call for a big dog
This is the Sailor cut at 13cm x 11cm, considerably larger and broader than the Classic at 10cm x 7cm. On a bigger dog, and particularly on a thick or fluffy coat, a small bow sinks into the ruff and reads as a smudge. The Sailor keeps its shape and stays legible at the distance people actually take photos from. On a small dog it becomes the main event, so the Classic Ralphie Reindeer is the one to choose there.
Velcro wrap, not a slide-on
The bow wraps around your dog's collar or a harness strap and fastens with velcro on the reverse. The collar stays on the dog, nothing gets unbuckled and nothing gets threaded, and it fits any collar or harness you already own whatever the width. Given that Christmas morning involves a dog who will not stand still and a household with somewhere to be by ten, being able to fit it in three seconds is not a small thing.

Sensibly
Treat it as a styling accessory rather than walking kit. It is not for leaving on a dog nobody is supervising, especially in a room full of ribbon and small toys. It comes off in seconds, which is exactly why the velcro is there.
If the dog is getting a present too, a collar from the Cocopup range gives the bow a home, and the lead collection is a sensible companion for the long walks everyone suddenly has time for.
