Have a question? We are happy to help.
Which collar should I buy?
Each Trail Ridge collar is handcrafted from premium rope and designed to balance comfort, style, and strength. The Explorer is lightweight and supple, The Classic is substantial and balanced, The Outrider is rugged with bold texture, and The Classic Slip offers a responsive training-style fit. Choose the one that best matches your dog’s needs and your lifestyle.
How do I choose the right size?
For the best fit, loosen your dog’s current collar so it slips comfortably over the head. Remove it, lay it flat, and measure the length end to end. That measurement is the size you should order. Our collars are designed to slip on easily and be worn slightly loose — more like a comfortable necklace than a tight band.
Can the collars get wet?
Yes. Trail Ridge collars are built from authentic climbing and marine-grade ropes made to handle the outdoors. Rain, mud, rivers — no problem. They dry quickly and stay comfortable no matter where your adventures take you.
How do I care for my collar?
For quick clean-ups, rinse with water or hand wash using mild soap. For deeper cleaning, place the collar in a mesh laundry bag (to protect your washing machine) and run on a gentle cycle. Always air dry. The rope and clamps are built to handle it — so your collar stays strong and beautiful for years to come.
