This collar comes with a FREE personalized solid brass nameplate attached. For your consideration, DOGS Unlimited has a stainless steel nameplate option which will go very nicely with the collar's nickel hardware. Solid brass or stainless steel, your choice. As always our brass nameplates come with either brass swat rivets or machine stamped solid brass rivets while the stainless steel nameplates will come with nickel plated swat rivets or machine stamped nickel plated steel rivets.
A word about our rivet options:
We offer two styles of rivets to attach our nameplates - SWAT Rivets and Machine Stamped Rivets.
SWAT Rivets are free and a nice option for dogs that are pets whose collars do not get pulled or tugged. They are a thin metal rivet and are swatted with a hammer to attach the nameplate to the collar. Because they are made of thin metal they are easy to drill out if you need to change out the nameplate with a new, updated nameplate. But they are also easily popped off if the collar gets tugged on or pulled on.
Machine Stamped Rivets are a tubular rivet post and cap set and the same style rivet that's used when making the collar. It's a very strong rivet and takes a rivet machine to attach the cap to the post. They are a much more permanent rivet when it comes to attaching the nameplate and are great for working dogs and dogs whose collar will be pulled and tugged.
- VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COLLAR SIZING -
We measure our collars from the end of the buckle to the middle of 5 holes NOT the entire length of the collar, so when we say that a collar has a NECK SIZE of 15" long this length is the distance between the buckle and the middle hole. Ultimately this measurement is based on your dog's Neck Size.
With that in mind, the best way to get a collar that fits properly is to put a string around your dog's neck where the collar will lay, and where it meets, cut it off and measure it. If you have a tailor's tape, you can do the same measurement and read the tape where it meets. That is the figure we will need to send you a collar that fits your dog correctly.
- Reflective strip for visibility
- Nickel hardware
- Soil, odor and rot resistant
- Water repellent
- Easily cleaned with soap and water
Field performance hinges on visibility, fit, and resilience. The reflective strip on the SunGlo Standard Reflective Blue collar improves silhouette during dawn or dusk retrieves and tracking through dense cover where light is limited. A water-repellent surface helps shed dampness after wetland work and dries relatively quickly after a water retrieve, reducing grip and snag potential on gear. In upland training and field trials, a low-profile color and centered reflectivity provide practical cues without adding bulk. For nameplate options, brass or stainless steel hardware pairs with either swat rivets or machine-stamped rivets, letting handlers choose based on expected wear during heavy pulling or routine handling. Regular maintenance is straightforward: rinse with soap and water after field sessions, then air dry away from direct heat to prevent long-term staining or corrosion. When selecting a proper fit, measure from the buckle to the middle hole as described; this ensures the collar sits securely during training or retrieves without shifting. With correct sizing and routine care, the collar remains a practical tool for field work and working-dog routines.

Two rivet styles attach the nameplate: SWAT rivets, which are easier to remove if needed, and machine-stamped rivets, which are more permanent and suited for dogs that pull or tug.

Sizing is measured from the buckle to the middle hole; measure your dog's neck and select the neck size accordingly.
