Waterproof Dog Collar and Leash from Mighty Paw

My Mighty Paw dog gear collection has been steadily growing over the course of the last 12 months! My latest additions are their new waterproof collar and leash in bright orange.

Pekingese mix Lila, one of my current canine house guests, has actively worn the collar for several weeks now and gone for plenty of walks on the leash.

Features of the waterproof collar & leash:

  • Smell-proof & waterproof
  • Soft & bendable PVC-based coated nylon material
  • Comfortable grip
  • High visibility reflective stripe
  • Available in orange or green
  • The leash is 6 ft long and 1 in wide
  • The collar’s buckle is made of durable thermoplastic and the D-ring is made of nickel plated iron, both of which will hold up to longterm use in salt water
  • The collar comes in small, medium, and large sizes

I didn’t get to test the leash and collar in saltwater, but they passed my waterproof rain test with flying colors.

I figured I’d really put Mighty Paw’s waterproof claim to the test. I tossed both the collar and leash onto my patio during a recent storm. They got exposed to heavy rain for about an hour. As I went to inspect the collar & leash after the downpour, I was happy to notice the following:

  • The material withstood the rain 100% and didn’t feel soggy or stiff
  • It was easy to dry both collar and leash with a towel
  • Neither had a funky smell to them

I also made it a point to let the leash drag across some rain puddles while out on a walk in my neighborhood, and the material remained as intact as it did in the pouring rain on my patio.

Cost of the leash & collar

The leash retails for $19.99, and the collar is $15.99, regardless of size. You can use code MP20Mutt for 20% off either or both products.

I recommend both for outings in wet weather and on low light walks.

Obviously both the collar and the leash are the ideal dog gear during wet, rainy walks, but they also come in handy during our humid North Carolina summers.

Just like I was able to do with the rainwater, the sweat from my hands wiped off easily, didn’t leave any residue or smell on the leash, and didn’t make the material feel or look stiff. I can see how this leash and collar will come in handy in snowy conditions during wintertime as well.

They’re also practical during low light walks because of the integrated reflective stripe. I tested its visibility during a late night walk with Lila, and the stripe became really visible both in an approaching car’s headlights and in my smartphone’s flashlight and camera light.

Any cons?

I’ve written many dog gear reviews since I started blogging in 2014, and I’ve always come up with at least one or two cons, but in this case I honestly can’t think of one. Mighty Paw’s collar & leash combination is truly the perfect dog gear for all types of weather, and this is coming from my professional dog walker perspective!

Perhaps the only con is they are currently available in just two color options – green or orange.

The waterproof (stink proof) collar I use for my Newfie is awesome with his thick fur. We would love a leash and collar combo!

I have 2 of these collars on my dogs. My old Labrador like to hide in the bushes in the yard at night and not come back inside. It's like a game of hide and seek. But that reflective stripe makes her easy to see. I guess I've been winning the game a lot lately - lol. But seriously, these are quality collars. I had been through about 11 collars on my other Lab, Max. This one is holding up so well it almost looks like new. Very pleased.

Smell-Proof That's the most important one. Especially after a day at the dog beach Gus' current collar needs to be aired for at least 2 days.... Both colors would fit my white lab perfect..
