EM Collar Standard
A balanced EM collar for those who want a light, flexible, and distinct collar for their dog during tick season.
The EM Collar Standard is an intermediate option in the EM series, suitable for those who desire more structure than the narrowest model without the collar becoming too bulky. It offers a visible yet understated look on the dog.
This is a handmade EM collar for dogs, crafted with ceramic EM beads. EM stands for Effective Microorganisms. The collar is used by many dog owners as a supplement to other tick protection methods and is perceived as an alternative without added chemical active ingredients or odor.
For many, EM collars are a more understated choice for everyday use. It doesn't apply anything directly to the dog's skin or coat but is used as part of a holistic approach during tick season.
The Standard model has more structure than the thinnest variants, while still being light, flexible, and comfortable for daily use. This makes it a popular choice for many dogs throughout the tick season.

About EM collars
EM collars are used by many dog owners as a supplement during tick season. The collars are made with ceramic EM beads and are often used by those who want an alternative without added chemical active ingredients or odor.
The effect can vary from dog to dog and from area to area. Therefore, we recommend that EM collars be used as a supplement, not as the sole form of tick protection.
We also recommend regularly checking your dog for ticks after walks, especially in areas with a lot of grass, forests, bushes, and high tick activity.
About the Standard model
Standard is the most balanced variant in the EM series. It has more structure than the Light model but is less prominent than Decor.
This makes it a good choice for those who want an EM collar that fits into everyday life, while still having enough form and visibility to feel complete.
The Standard model is suitable for many dogs and is a popular choice during tick season.
How to choose the right size
Measure your dog's neck where the EM collar will sit. Use a soft measuring tape and measure snugly against the neck, but without tightening.
For the best possible fit, the collar should sit relatively close to the dog's neck, without being tight or uncomfortable.
As a general rule, you should be able to fit approximately one to two fingers between the collar and the dog's neck, depending on the dog's coat, size, and comfort.
If you are unsure about the size, you can write your dog's neck measurement in the comment field when ordering — and we will help you double-check before making the collar.
Important information about use
This collar does not have a D-ring and should not be attached to a leash.
The EM Collar Standard is designed as a supplement during tick season and should not be used as a substitute for a regular collar, walking collar, or harness.
For the best possible results, it is recommended that the collar be used regularly, preferably daily, during tick season.
The effect can vary from dog to dog and area to area. Therefore, use an EM collar as a supplement to other tick protection methods and regular tick checks.
Maintenance
Allow the collar to air dry if it gets wet.
Avoid leaving the collar damp for extended periods. Regularly check the braiding, beads, and fastening for wear, especially if the dog wears the collar daily.
If necessary, superficial dirt can be gently removed with a damp cloth.
Production and delivery
This product is made to order. Normal production time is 3–5 business days before the product is shipped from us.
Because the collar is handmade, small variations in braiding, colors, and appearance may occur. This is a natural part of its handmade character.

What are EM beads?
EM beads are produced by fermenting clay and firing it at a high temperature. The result is a stable ceramic material without active microorganisms, often used in products related to natural tick prevention.
EM beads are used by many as a natural and chemical-free alternative during tick season. The effect can vary from dog to dog, and the collar should be used regularly for the best possible outcome.
EM collars are recommended as a supplement, not as a substitute for other tick protection, and offer no guarantee against ticks. The need for other protection will vary from dog to dog and area.
Maintenance
To preserve the properties of the EM beads, simple maintenance is recommended:
Rinse the collar regularly in clean water
– Preferably 1–2 times a week during tick season
Allow it to air dry completely
– Avoid tumble drying or strong heat
Avoid soap directly on the beads
– This can affect the surface of the beads
After a lot of use
– A simple rinse and dry is usually enough
Note
Small variations in color, pattern, and expression may occur as each product is handmade.
