Pet neckwear can be created to close around a pet's neck or to enclose a standard pet collar, so that the apparel may fit to the specific size required by the pet. When used as a cover for a standard pet collar the neckwear may completely cover the collar underneath and yet still allow for leash attachment since it connects through the leash hook instead of over the top of it. The neckwear may be made of materials that can be wiped cleaned or machine washed and may have additional design elements attached in such a way as they could be detached and exchanged for different design elements to form a new style. It is also easy to attach so that even people with dexterity issues such as arthritis can use it to individualize their pet.
