Find the Ideal Dog Collar by Lifestyle
Choosing the right collar depends entirely on your dog's daily routine and temperament. We've broken down our most popular dog collar styles by activity:
The Adventurer: Waterproof Dog Collars
For dogs that love to swim, hike, or roll in the mud, traditional nylon collars quickly become smelly and brittle. Our Waterproof Dog Collars are made from durable, easy-to-clean Biothane material. Many manufacturers use Biothane but not many use strap as thick and soft as the style we use. There is a big difference in how it feels and longevity. They are 100% odor-proof, mildew-resistant, and remain soft and flexible even in freezing temperatures. We make both personalized and non-personalized styles.
- Best for: Sporting breeds, water dogs, large dogs, and pups with sensitive skin.
- Key Styles: Waterproof ScruffTag Collar, Quick Release Waterproof Collars and our Waterproof NamePlate Collars.
The Escape Artist: Martingale Dog Collars
If your dog frequently backs out of their collar when scared or overly excited, a Martingale Dog Collars is the only safe option. Also known as a no-slip collar, this design features a control loop that gently tightens to the precise size of your dog's neck when they pull, preventing them from slipping free without causing choking.
- Best for: Greyhounds, Whippets, Collies, and dogs in training.
The Classic Companion: Premium Leather Collars
For a timeless look that only gets better with age, our Leather Collars are crafted from high-quality, full-grain American leather. These collars are durable, incredibly comfortable, and designed to last for years with proper care.
- Best for: Everyday wear, sophisticated styles, and owners who prefer premium materials.
Nighttime Safety: Reflective Dog Collars
Ensure your dog is highly visible during early morning runs or late-night walks. Our Reflective Dog Collars integrate bright, durable reflective strips that catch light from cars, significantly increasing safety in low-light conditions.
- Best for: Nighttime walks, dogs living near busy streets, and owners prioritizing visibility.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Dog Parents
How do I measure my dog for a collar to ensure safety?
Choosing the correct dog collar size is essential for your pet's comfort and safety. Measure your dog's neck where the collar naturally rests (usually near the middle of the neck). To ensure a comfortable and safe fit, follow the "Two-Finger Rule": you should be able to snugly slide two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. All our collars feature adjustable fittings to achieve this perfect fit.
What is the difference between a ScruffTag Collar, NamePlate Collar and an Embroidered Collar?
- ScruffTag Collars: Feature a large personalized ID tag built into the structure of the collar which rests right on the back (scruff) of our dog’s neck with deeply laser engraved information (name, phone number, etc.) This is a very practical and silent option since the large tag area allows for easy readability from a distance. Because of this, a person that finds your lost dog doesn’t need to contact the dog to read your contact information. They can just stand above or directly behind your dog to read how to contact you.
- NamePlate Collars: Feature personalized ID information (name, phone number) engraved onto a durable stainless steel or solid brass plate that is riveted directly to the collar's strap. This is a very secure and silent option and has a classic regal look.
- Embroidered Collars: Feature your dog's name and contact information stitched directly into the nylon webbing collar strap. This is a highly visible, permanent solution with no parts that can fall off. Embroidery thread color choices are also a big plus if you want to design your own unique color combination.
Can I wash my dog's collar?
Yes, you can wash most dog collars. All Nylon Dog Collars and Waterproof Dog Collars are easily cleaned with warm soapy water or tossed into the washing machine. For leather collars, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and applying a leather conditioner every couple of months to keep them in top condition.
