Top 10 Best Dog Collars 2024 | UK Veterinarian Reviewed

This exceptional collar is made from BioThane, so it's stronger and sturdier than nylon or leather. Owners with pups who love to swim will be pleased to know that it's waterproof and non-absorbent too, which makes it wonderfully easy to clean.

The black electroplated buckle is less prone to rusting than ordinary metals and is sturdy enough to prevent your dog from slipping out of the collar. Plus, it accommodates most neck sizes, so without a doubt, this collar ticks all the right boxes!

This pick from The Company of Animals has some fantastic features. Made out of high-grade nylon webbing with a neoprene interior, it's not only comfortable but also easy to clean - an essential property for anything canine-related, we'd say!

Furthermore, it comes in an excellent range of colours, including red, black, blue, and of course the snazzy purple option which is shown here. It's also equipped with a 3M reflective weave for extra visibility during the night.

This beautiful collar not only looks good, it's incredibly robust! It comes in light blue for the more fashion conscious, but we think this classic brown leather look is a great choice too!

This collar also features solid brass hardware that's been lacquered to prevent rusting. If you're looking to invest in a hard-wearing collar that'll last your pooch for years to come, you can't beat this one!

This martingale collar gets top marks for safety, thanks to the heavy-duty side release buckle with a lockable tab to prevent any accidental releases. Plus, it has separate D rings for your lead and ID tags, as well as reflective stitching for night time walks.

In addition to being a handy product for your pooch, buying from Max and Neo also helps dogs in need to get necessary supplies. They donate an identical collar to a dog rescue for every one sold - now that's what we call a great brand!

This Vivi Bear padded collar is plush and super comfy, making it suitable for most dogs - especially those with sensitive skin. The soft padding means that even if your pooch is prone to tugging, it won't hurt their neck. 

You can purchase the matching lead and best of all, it comes in a wide range of fun colours. It also features a reflective material, meaning you can always spot your dog at any time of day! 

If your dog loves their night time walkies, this smart-looking "Flash and Go" collar is the perfect accessory. With LED lights all over and bright orange details, your dog will always be visible no matter how dark it is outside.

Made from tough fabric, you can trust that this collar will last. We should warn you though, the lights on this collar are only rechargeable via USB - so make sure the collar is fully charged before heading outside with your pet! 

If you want all the benefits of leather but prefer to shop cruelty-free, we present this top-quality vegan leather collar by One Sweet Pup. It either comes in a range of styles and colours and has stylish rose gold fastenings.

The adjustable sizing means this collar can go from 20cm up to 40cm, which is great for growing pooches! However, it's a bit too bulky for small pups and isn't strong enough for large dogs, which is why we recommend this for medium size dogs.

This flat collar by YUDOTE is made from nylon, featuring cotton twilled webbing and outward-facing end seams to ensure the highest comfort level for your pooch. It's really lightweight too, so it's great for smaller pets.

We love that this collar comes in lovely pastel colours, but if your dog loves to roll around in the dirt then it's not ideal - washing out the mud might be a bit of a hassle after a long day of playing fetch!

If you love fashion, this chic tartan collar from Barbour is a must-buy for your pooch! Not only is it super stylish, but it's made out of two great materials - the leather is a long-lasting fabric whilst the cotton webbing provides gentle comfort for your dog's neck.

It comes in a range of sizes for small to large dog breeds and better yet, this collar even has a matching reflective lead! The only downside is the price, which is very high compared to most of the other collars on our list.

If you're looking for a simple flat collar, this Petface product is the perfect choice for your pooch. Made from premium, soft-touch nylon webbing, it has a handy side release buckle clip which is easy to fasten.

Although this collar comes in larger sizes, this particular one is best recommended for smaller pooches, given that the collar band is quite slim and won't be sturdy enough for bigger dogs.
