Go Fetch! Go Green! Collar Recycle Program
Read below if you're interested in saving money by trading in your old collars (didn't my sister do a great job creating Abby playing fetch with a collar? I love the GO FETCH logo!) Introducing:
Same strong & dependable hardware with a new cutting edge design!
Thanks to a few more emails like Regina's we are excited to introduce a collar and leash "recycle" program to help reduce the amount of materials going into our landfills. We believe in being environmentally responsible in all aspects of business here at Classic Hound, from the biodegradable bags we dispense at our trade shows to practices we implement around our sewing studio. It only makes sense to offer a reward program to those who would like to rescue retired collars leashes (or at least the metal hardware) from going in the trash.
Now you have the option to trade-in your old Classic Hound items for $5 - $7 off your next collar/leash purchase!
How do we play?
Trade-ins are as follows, COLLARS for COLLARS and LEASHES for LEASHES. It's as simple as that!
What's our treat? How much will we save?
$7.00 off per returned collar and $5.00 per returned leash
You will receive a coupon code via email for every collar and/or leash hardware set sent back for reuse. So if you send back one collar plus one leash, that’s $12.00 of your next collar and leash purchase. Send 3 Classic Hound collars back to us and get $21.00 off your next 3 collar purchase!
Woof! We're excited! Tell us what to do!
Mail your outdated (yet still in working order) Classic Hound collar(s) and leash(es) back to us to trade-in the old threads for new ones. Same hardware pieces but new cutting edge designs! We will perform safety tests on each piece of hardware before sewing them back into the new collar of your choice.
In the event that a collar or leash is sent back to us and we find the item itself to be in perfect working order and still looking fabulous, we will donate it to the local dog shelter of our choice. In cases like this, we would sew brand new hardware into your new collar or leash and you will still enjoy the same rebate.
We reserve the right to refuse a trade in on items that are used beyond recognition and with hardware that has been abused beyond the ability for reuse. You will be notified via email if this should occur. Remember this is a program to promote recycling and reuse of perfectly fine metal hardware from Classic Hound products no longer being used or enjoyed.
Where do I send my trade-in collars and leashes?
