About The Dog Behind This Collar: This very special collar is named for an EXTRA special guy - Ethan! Ethan was dumped in a parking lot on a cold January day in 2021. He should have been over 80lbs - but was actively dying and down to 38 pounds. He didn't take his first steps for six days but each day, he kept fighting to stay alive. His incredible will to live inspired thousands of people around the world.
His night time caretaker at the Humane Society formed a fast bond with him and soon officially adopted him. Today, Ethan brings attention and recognition to shelters and animals all over the country and inspires people and animals alike to overcome some incredible odds in their lives.

Named the American Hero Dog of the Year, you can follow him on Facebook and Instagram - @EthanAlmighty
