Waterproof Dog Collar Guide

Built Tough for Aussie Dogs

Waterproof Dog Collars Australia — Built to Handle Whatever Your Dog Throws at Them

Two years of beach swims, muddy paddocks and hard yakka. Still going strong. That's what a real waterproof collar looks like — and that's the standard every Jacaranda collar is built to.

If your dog swims, works, rolls in things, or simply lives a proper Aussie dog life — a nylon or fabric collar isn't going to cut it. They absorb water. They hold smells. They fray. They need replacing every few months. And you just keep buying them.

Our PVC collars don't do any of that. Waterproof from day one, odour resistant by design, and built with riveted construction that outlasts stitching by years. Some of our very first customers bought their collar two years ago. They're only just starting to see normal wear and tear.

"Nylon collars need replacing every 3 months on an active dog. Our customers are still on their first Jacaranda collar after two years. That's not luck — that's PVC."

Two waterproof collars — one for every dog

We make two styles of waterproof collar. Both are handmade in Orange, NSW from the same tough PVC webbing with the same quality hardware. Choose the one that suits your dog.

Waterproof PVC Collar

Standard · XS to XL

Our everyday waterproof collar. Handmade, riveted, available in 12 bold colours and five sizes from XS to XL. Waterproof, odour resistant, easy to clean and built to handle everything from morning walks to full days on the farm. The collar that keeps going long after nylon gives up.

XS 30cm · Small 40cm · Medium 50cm · Large 60cm · XL 70cm

Waterproof Martingale Collar

The waterproof martingale with buckle that nobody else was making — so we built it ourselves. Stainless steel martingale chain with PVC webbing and an adjustable buckle. Gentle tightening control without choking, easy on and off, and completely waterproof. Made for walking and training dogs of every breed — great for dogs that pull or back out of a standard collar. Trusted by service and guide dog handlers too.

Why waterproof matters — and why PVC is the answer

❌ Standard nylon collars

Absorbs water — stays wet for hours
Soaks up bacteria, sweat and odour
Frays and fades in UV and salt air
Needs replacing every 3 months
Stitching unravels under pressure
Turns into a bacteria hotel fast

✔ Jacaranda PVC collars

100% waterproof — not a drop absorbed
Non-porous — odours can't penetrate
UV and salt-air resistant
Customers still going after 2 years
Riveted — stronger than stitching
Wipe clean in two seconds flat

How to clean a waterproof PVC collar

This is the best part. There is no process. There's no soaking, no scrubbing, no special detergent, no chucking it in the washing machine and hoping for the best.

Wipe down with a damp cloth after muddy walks — done in seconds
Rinse under the tap for deeper cleaning — no soap needed
No drying time — PVC doesn't absorb water so it's ready immediately
No odour build up — non-porous surface means bacteria has nowhere to live
Salt water safe — rinse after the beach and it looks brand new

Built for every Aussie dog and every Aussie condition

🚜

Working dogs

Kelpies, cattle dogs, farm dogs — full days of hard yakka in dust, mud and all weather.

Salt water, sand, daily swims — rinse under the tap and it looks brand new every time.

Bush walks, camping, river crossings — PVC handles every chapter of the adventure.

Any breed that pulls or backs out of a collar — the martingale is the answer.

The martingale nobody else was making — so we built it

We couldn't find a waterproof, adjustable martingale with a buckle made in Australia. So we designed and built one ourselves. Stainless steel martingale chain rated to 150–300kg depending on size, PVC webbing, adjustable buckle — easy on, easy off, completely waterproof and built to last.

It's been requested specifically by service dog and guide dog handlers who need reliable, waterproof, secure gear for working dogs on the job. If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for anyone.

Great quality, quick delivery.

Thanks heaps! Glad you’re happy with the quality and it got to you quick 🐾

Excellent thank you!

You’re welcome! Glad you’re happy with it 😊

I am super happy and impressed with my recent order! I ordered 2 x 1.5m leads and 2 x 10m long lines... Best of both worlds! Perfect for our around the streets walks and market wanders... But also the option to enjoy some more slack at the beach or bushwalking! So many beautiful colours to pick from and incredibly quick and helpful responses from the team via their Facebook page. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be ordering some more colours in the future! 🩵🐾🩷

Sounds like you’ve got every outing covered, from a wander round the markets to a good sniff out bush! We’re glad we could help on Facebook. You’ll have to let us know which colours you go for next 🩵🐾

Amazing quality and cute colours

So glad you love the colours and how well they’re made! 🩵

This is the second collar we own. This time we are puppy testing it! It’s is great not annoying on his neck or being chewed. Have the whole orange collection and they are just stunning!

Will be buying every size as our pup grows up.

The whole orange collection! Your little fella must look a treat in it 🧡 Glad the collar’s passed the puppy test and he’s happy wearing it. We’ve got his next size covered when he’s ready! 🐾

We absolutely love them! I ordered 4 collars and chains and a ute tie up and we received them within 6 days. They work a charm and look absolutely amazing too might i add!
our crew love them🤩

How good! Bet your crew looks pretty sharp in their new collars 🤩 Glad it all landed nice and quick and the ute tie’s doing the job! 🐾

Very good quality collars. You would spend similar money on Chinese crap at Big W or a pet shop but they’re nowhere near the quality of these collars. Great to see something is still made in Australia. Thank you

Cheers, mate! For that money, you might as well get a collar made right here in Orange that’s built to cop a bit of abuse. Thanks for backing Aussie-made! 🐾

Such great collars!! Perfect for all dogs and such fun colours to suit every dogs personality!

Love the photos! Looks like you picked just the right colours for your crew. Thanks for sharing them with us 🐾

Discovered this company on Facebook, have had two orders, they deliver quickly and are well priced. I love supporting a regional business and these guys are just that. They have a great colour range and their collars and leads are well made. Delivery to rural areas within the week. Highly recommend A+

An A+ made our day! It means a lot that you’ve come back for a second order and chosen to back our little business here in Orange. Glad both orders made it out to you nice and quick 🩵🐾

Amazing product. Definitely recommend! The quality is amazing.

Amazing quality gear !

I found the 80cm leads are way too short. However I have been able to exchange for the 1.5m lead. Thanks to Jacaranda collars for prompt service.
The extra long training lead I ordered is good and the green is a great colour.

We were more than happy to swap the lead and get you sorted with the right length for your little one. Lovely to hear you’re happy with the green training lead too 💜 Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to get the right products lined up for you.

Loved the collar and lead! Currently buying another one, now for my partner and one to keep in my car. Great quality!

Not only are these Collars top shelf, recently their distinct colours, in my case Teal, helped identify my dog who had been missing for over 12 hours. If.you haven't yet bought stuff from Jacaranda Collars, it's your turn, do it!

Mate, I’m so glad you got your dog home safe. Twelve hours is a long wait, and that teal collar really came in handy, hey? Now it’s your turn to shout the dog a treat 😉

Excellent service very impressed thankyou.

Amazing quality collars. Fits my dogs perfectly and has withstood farm life.

The catching lead look a fantastic love the vibrant colours great quality so thankyou very much 😊.

Bought the seatbelt ties. They didn't fit in the polaris buggy plugs but perfect for the ute. Love the colours 🎨

I wish I had found these puppy collars earlier! Finally we can tell them apart! The tiny string collars from the Vet disappeared among the fur. Now we can see what pup is greeting you first every time or attacks your toes. A wonderful soft but sturdy product.

Great quality collars and super cute colours. Love the big buckle style.

All great

Great quality, will definitely buy again.

Great service, fast delivery and answered all my pesky questions! Excellent quality leads and collars

Amazing quality, size and colour are perfect!

I have just moved to the coast where I walk the beach most days with my greyhound! She loves the water but cannot be off leash. This long waterproof leash is absolutely perfect for trotting in the waves!
Lightweight, but not TOO light, great colour too! Thanks so much!

Great site easy to navigate

I found jacaranda collars at Dubbo show! Bought 4 items,the BEST collars I have ever had. Soft but durable,keep there colour perfectly,don’t get hard and brittle after a few months of wear and tear!
