The Starlight has been a best selling custom dog collar since making its debut here at Fusion By Design. The Starlight is a fully custom 1.5" wide, padded leather dog collar that maximizes bling and sparkle in a standard width collar.
Building Your Starlight
When you place your order you'll choose:
Leather colour: The base of your collar. Choose Black or one of 3 available Browns.
Padding colour: The soft inner lining that sits against your dog's neck. Choose from standard or metallic colours.
Hardware finish: Brass, Silver, or Black. Choose what suits your dog's colouring and your personal aesthetic.
Crystal colours: Single colour or a combination. If you're not sure where to start, reach out and we'll help you think it through. Have a specific colour combo in mind? Leave us a not in the "Special Requests" box here on the page.
Not sure about a combination? We've been doing this long enough to know what works. Send us a message before you order. We're happy to help you build something you'll love.
Getting the Right Fit
The Starlight is available from 10" to 25" neck. To measure your dog, use a soft tape measure around the base of the neck where the collar will sit. Don't add extra to the measurement "just in case". We've already accounted for that. If your dog is between sizes, contact us before ordering. We'll help you choose the correct size.
The Craft
The Starlight is built from full-grain English bridle leather, the same leather used in high-end equestrian tack because it's strong, and softens beautifully with wear. Condition it occasionally and your collar will last a lifetime.
The Starlight's padded lining keeps it comfortable enough for everyday wear, long training days and full tournament weekends, and the tapered buckle reduces bulk without sacrificing strength.
The crystals are genuine Austrian-made. Hand-set individually, the sparkle you see in the product photos is what you get in real life.
Every Starlight is made by hand in our Ontario workshop by a small team of leather artisans. No shortcuts, no outsourcing.
This collar is made to order. Standard production time is approximately four weeks from the date your order is placed.
Need it sooner? The Skip The Line option moves your order to the front of the queue — production in approximately one week. Simply add the upgrade to your order.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will the crystals stay on through regular daily and competition use?
Yes. The crystals are hand-set individually and have been worn through flyball, agility, dock diving, and everything in between. They're not glued on. In the unlikely event you have an issue, contact us directly. We offer a repair service for all FBD Collars.
How does the leather hold up over time?
Full-grain English bridle leather is built for hard use. It softens and develops character, referred to as patina, with wear. Condition it occasionally and it will outlast collars that cost the same and are made with half the care. Customers regularly come back for a second or third collar while the original is still going.
My dog is between sizes. What should I do?
Reach out before you order and we'll help you choose the correct size. A quick message before you place your order is much easier than adjusting after the fact.
You can also view our Size Chart and measuring instructions here: Size Guide.
Is this collar suitable for everyday wear or just competition?
Both. The padded lining makes it comfortable for all-day wear, and the leather is durable enough to handle whatever your dog's day looks like. Most of our customers use the same collar for training, competing, and everything else.
Can I see the collar before I commit to a custom order?
The product photos show real collars on real dogs — no retouching of the leather or crystal sparkle. If you have questions about a specific colour combination before you order, send us a message. We've built enough of these to give you an honest answer about what works.
Can I make changes to my order?
Within 24 hours of placing your order, we may be able to accommodate some changes. Once that 24 hour order window has passed, we are unable to accept changes to your order since work will have begun on your order.
