Dublin Dog Collar Review

A few weeks ago I decided that I’d had enough of having to wash Monty’s collar every week or so. Even when I did wash it (in near boiling water!) there was still a nasty whiff about it!

I trawled the internet for days, trying to find the perfect Labrador collar. Being a typical Lab, I can’t keep Monty out of water. I needed something that would wipe clean and not stink to high heaven after a few dips in muddy water. To be honest, I had all but given up when a fan of the Labradors Worldwide Facebook page mentioned the Dublin Dog Collar (thanks Rebecca!)

“The Original All Style, No Stink Collar”

We Tested the Dublin Dog Collar from the "Classic Stripe" Range - Choose From Seven Ranges 27 Different Collars in Total

The collar that we tested is from the “Classic Stripe” range in the large size (17-21 inches or 43-53cm). There’s 27 different collars to choose from!

My first impression of the collar was how well built it looked. It looks as if it will last for years and I love the chunky, shiny buckle. The collar is made from a special blend of polymers that won’t absorb moisture, retain dirt, or harbor bacteria. It feels like the kind of material that you find on sports watch straps. Looks-wise, the collar can’t be faulted but how would it perform in the ultimate test of them all….THE LAB TEST?

So, how good is the Dublin Dog Collar?

Monty Gets Muddy

The plan was, to keep the Dublin Dog Collar on Monty for a whole week and only take it off at bed time. Now with any normal collar, after a week, the smell would be so bad the neighbors would complain! Okay, a slight exaggeration perhaps but I’m sure you see my point :-)

Every day we went for a swim and a run and on one occasion Monty indulged in an obligatory roll in fox poop. It’s traditional, he has to do that at least once a week! Monty has taken the collar into streams a fish pond and on Saturday, some of the filthiest stagnant water I have ever seen. The combination of hot weather, a hot dog and filthy water is usually a recipe for a very smelly collar. NOT with the Dublin Dog Collar. It still smells and looks like new! The Dublin Dog Collar passed the LAB TEST with ease!

The Dublin Dog Collar – In Summary:

I’m very, very impressed with the Dublin Dog Collar. They are perfect for Labs and any other water loving dog. In fact, I think they are great for any dog regardless of whether they like getting wet and muddy or not. They look fantastic. A real quality product!
