Goober Dog Collars are hand crafted in East Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia… one of the best cold water surfing spots in the world! Our dogs basically live at the beach, and thats where we got the inspiration to offer awesome outdoor/ beach/ chillwear that is HAND MADE & MARINE GRADE!
Most people buy our products because they look amazing and we have a great reputation. Those reasons are as good as any, but there’s more to us we swear!!! So what sets us apart from the competition? Well…
All of our awesome patterns are available ONLY through Goober Dog Collars. Thats right, you won’t find these exclusive patterns anywhere else! Lots of care goes into our designs to make sure they’re bright, fun and look great in all sizes.
Our material is custom printed just for us right here in Canada. We print on high quality, 100% cotton for a soft, comfy feel your pup will love!
On the inside, we use a super strong polypropylene webbing, widely used in marine applications because unlike nylon, polypropylene does not absorb water. This means our webbing remains strong when wet with minimal stretching. As an added bonus, polypropylene is also lighter weight than nylon and is mildew resistant (translates to: less wet dog stank!).
Our Hardware:
Not all hardware is created equal, and we use the best in the business!
Custom made just for us, our triangle D-rings are made from marine grade 316 stainless steel and welded at the joint for superior strength. 316 stainless is an industry standard material, and performs particularly well in salt water applications vs. typical 304 stainless. Our D-rings are heavy duty, low profile and due to their unique shape, they resist unwanted rotation common with the typical “D” shape… and they look awesome!
Our heavy duty buckles and tri-glides are molded from Delrin ® by Du Pont™. Unlike nylon buckles, Delrin ® is virtually unaffected by relative humidity… this means your dogs collar will perform equally as well at the beach as it does in drier, less demanding environments. When compared to most other polyacetal resins, Delrin ® is not only the stiffest and strongest on the market, but offers a 30% higher breaking point, and 40% higher impact resistance… particularly in cold weather (We’re talking to you Canada!).
Our buckles and tri-glides are made in America by National Molding, a company that supplies hardware to countless high performance industries and is trusted by both the US and Canadian Military!

Please note that returns are not accepted on custom orders, so be sure to measure correctly!
