Waterproof PVC Puppy & Small Dog Collars Australia

Puppy & Small Dog Collars — Quality You Can't Find This Small

Handmade 10mm-wide waterproof collars and leads for puppies, toy breeds and miniature dogs. Made in Orange, NSW.

If you've ever tried to buy a decent collar for a little dog, you already know the problem. Walk into any pet shop or scroll any big online store and the small sizes are an afterthought — thin nylon that frays within weeks, fades in the sun, and holds onto that damp-dog smell no matter how often you wash it. Quality gear in a genuinely tiny size is surprisingly hard to find.

That never sat right with us. A Chihuahua, a toy poodle, an Italian greyhound or a brand-new puppy deserves a collar that's just as nicely made as the one on a working dog — only smaller, lighter and a bit more adorable. So we made one.

🐾 A proper 10mm-wide waterproof collar and lead — built for the little ones, finished by hand, and made to last years instead of months.

Why little dogs need better than cheap nylon

Small dogs live just as much life as big ones. They still get rained on, still find the muddiest spot in the yard, and still need a collar that holds an ID tag securely. The difference is that the cheap nylon collars made for them simply aren't built to cope.

Our puppy range is made from the same PVC-coated webbing as our full-size collars — just scaled down to a dainty 10mm width. That means:

  • 100% waterproof — the webbing absorbs nothing, so there's no soggy, smelly collar after a wet walk or a swim.
  • Non-porous and odour-free — bacteria has nowhere to live, so it stays fresh between cleans.
  • Riveted, not stitched — hand-punched and riveted by us, so it won't fray or unravel the way nylon does.
  • Wipe-clean easy — a quick rinse under the tap and it's good as new.
  • Soft and gentle — smooth edges that won't rub or chafe a delicate little neck.

And don't let the size fool you. The 10mm puppy collar is tested to a 140kg break strength, and the matching lead to 240kg — far beyond anything a small dog will ever put through it. Tiny, but no toy.

Perfect for puppies and toy breeds

The 10mm size is the permanent fit for adult toy and miniature breeds, and the ideal first collar for puppies of all breeds. It suits:

  • Chihuahuas
  • Pomeranians
  • Toy and miniature Poodles
  • Italian Greyhounds
  • Maltese, Papillon and Mini Foxies
  • Miniature Dachshunds
  • Yorkshire Terriers and other toy terriers
  • Puppies of all breeds, before they size up

Got a pup that's going to grow? The 10mm is perfect for the early weeks. Most pups then move up to our XS (30cm) or Small (40cm) adult collar within a few months — so it's worth knowing where you're headed.

Common questions

What size dog does the puppy collar fit?

It fits necks from 13cm to 22cm — ideal for toy and miniature adult breeds, and for puppies before they grow into a larger size.

My puppy is growing fast — is this worth buying?

Yes, for the early weeks. Once your pup outgrows 22cm they'll move up to our XS or Small adult collar. The 10mm size stays the permanent fit for genuinely small adult breeds.

Is a 10mm collar strong enough for a small dog?

Comfortably. The collar is tested to a 140kg break strength and the lead to 240kg — far beyond what any small dog could ever generate.

Can it get wet?

Absolutely. The webbing is fully waterproof and non-porous, so it won't absorb water or hold odours. Rinse it under the tap and it's clean.

Where are they made?

Every collar and lead is hand-cut and riveted by us in Orange, NSW — the same way we've made our gear since 2024.

BEST EVER 10/10!!!

first of all i am a total gear snob! there are few and far companies i truly love and Jacaranda is a huge winner. you cannot substitute a good PVC collar, its so wet this winter, i really needed something that didn't need to be hung up to dry all the time, especially during club days and at sport trials where dogs are running on muddy ovals These collars are soft and flexible unlike other brands of this sort. i also found the sizing very generous. We normally use ruff wear collars which can go upward of $50 each, but you cant beat Jacaranda! under $20 , Handmade in AUS , Waterproof , Soft to the touch , Grippy (my new MUST for walking 3+ dogs together) and i trust these clips not to snap (i ordered custom from a well known CA company and that's how i found out we have good recall! thank you jacaranda , this is the kind of business we need to support, from farmers to city pups these collars are amazing for all <3

These collars are outstanding. The material is heavy-duty but soft enough that it doesn’t irritate any of my dog's skin. The buckle snaps tightly and feels completely secure against hard pulling dogs. I absolutely love the range of colours you can choose from. It has been through mud and water, washes easily, and does not hold odors. Fits all my dogs perfectly according to the size chart. Highly recommend these collars if you’re looking and needing something that’s durable and something that also looks nice! Great quality and bloody affordable!

We were ordering several different items but had some confusion regarding the name of the particular "pink" colour we wanted.
Sarah replied promptly to our emails and supplied pics/names so we could get exactly what we wanted.
Everything arrived quickly and we just love the feel of the PVC. It gives grip but doesn't rub or scratch your hands. Everything wipes clean easily and the colours are perfect.
We highly recommend Jacaranda Collars for quality and service.

Great service, lovely leads and collars. Especially great material if you are using the long leads for recall and the lead sits on the wet ground a lot, the material is lovely and soft to hold too. I am very pleased, love all the bright vibrant colours available.
