Color Choice:
Be sure to select a color that is a complete contrast to the fabric! While it is fun to try to make the embroidery thread color match the collar, the embroidery will not be visible. It is best to select a thread color that is NOT in the fabric at all. The busier the fabric used, the less visible the embroidery will turn out. If you select a color that that is not a complete contrast, selecting a 'chunky' font may improve the visibility. Here are a couple of examples:
Here are two samples of thread color. Notice how the contrast in the pink thread used for Buttons is much more visible than the teal thread used for Roxie.
Characters:
The number of characters that can be embroidered, depends on the size of the item(s) ordered. It may be necessary to reduce the size of the embroidery to fit in a specific area. For the largest embroidery, use the minimum number of characters necessary.
For the best visibility, we recommend that you use capital letters for your dog's name, so that all of the letters are as large as possible. Lower case letters, such as g, j, p, q, and y will require the name to be embroidered smaller, to accommodate the lower hanging letters.
Layout:
If you wish to have the embroidery centered on the back of the collar, we recommend the belt style collar. All other collar styles require a slide for adjustability which may prevent accurate centering of the embroidery.
Unless otherwise requested, we will place the embroidery close to the Cozy Critter label to maximize adjustability of the collar. If you would like the embroidery to be placed elsewhere, be sure to include your request, along with your dog's measurement to ensure visibility. See pictures below:
If the neck measurement isn't included with the order, there is a possibility that the slider will cover up part of the embroidery when the collar is adjusted to fit your dog. To prevent this from happening, it may be necessary for your collar to be shortened. See picture below:
The only time it would be necessary to shorten the length on the collar is if your dog is at the smaller end of the collar's adjustability. For example, our medium collar will adjust from 14"-22". If your dog has a 15" neck, we would need to shorten the collar by a few inches to prevent the slider from covering the name. If your dog is at the larger end of the size range, this will not be necessary. If you have a growing puppy, and do not want your collar to be shortened, please let us know.

RETURNS ARE NOT PERMITTED FOR EMBROIDERED ITEMS
While The Cozy Critter is proud to have a very flexible return/exchange policy, regretfully, we cannot accept returns or exchanges on embroidered items. (Unless an error was made on our part). Please utilize the order form to accurately and thoroughly communicate your request. Here are some tips for purchasing the perfect embroidery:
1. Let Cozy Critter decide the thread color
If you have any doubts as to the thread color, let us choose for you! Utilize the comments box to share your preferences. Example comments: " Would prefer royal blue thread, but if that won't work, light blue or turquoise will be fine" or "Any thread color but yellow" or "Something girlie"
2. Let Cozy Critter decide the font
Unless there is a font that you absolutely love, let us decide for you! Some names will look better with different fonts, and we can decide the best option once the embroidery is laid out. Communicate your preferences in the comments box. Example comments: "Would like something simple and easy to read" or "Want something playful" or "any thicker font will work"
3. Provide an accurate neck measurement on the order form
Be sure to include your pet's neck measurement, so we can ensure the collar fits properly, and the embroidery is visible. If this measurement is provided and we make an error with the sizing or layout, you may exchange your product. If this measurement is not provided, we are not responsible for sizing errors. The neck measurement can be taken a number of ways, just communicate clearly. Examples: "Current neck measurement is 19" when measured snugly" or " Current collar measures 15" from end to end" or "collar will be at 10" when on the dog"
*The exception to this return policy is if the collar ordered is too big, and we are able to size it down (belt-style collars cannot be sized down). If your collar is too big, we can often size it down for you. This means that we will shorten the collar you received, so the width and embroidery will remain the same. This is not always an option, but send us an email and we'll be happy to try to help!
