The martingale for dogs that slip their collar
A martingale tightens a limited amount when your dog pulls back, so a narrow head cannot slide out of it, then loosens again. It is the standard collar for greyhounds, whippets and other sighthounds, and for any dog that has learned to reverse out of a flat collar.
Ours carries your dog's name and your phone number embroidered in, so the collar that stops the escape is also the one that gets them home. If you have been looking for a personalised martingale and coming up empty, that is why: the loop construction makes them difficult to embroider, so most makers skip it.
What makes ours different
- Embroidered, which almost nobody does. A martingale is awkward to personalise because of how the loop is constructed, so most makers do not offer it at all. We bought dedicated machinery to do it, and we are the only Australian maker producing embroidered martingales.
- High-strength nylon webbing, heavier than the martingales sold in most pet shops.
- Limited tightening by design, so it closes enough to stop an escape without choking.
- Name and phone number included in the price. Leads carry the name.
- Same or next business day dispatch on most orders, because we make them here.
- Free shipping on orders over $99. All bedding ships free with no minimum.
Every collar is cut, sewn and embroidered by our team at our factory in the Hunter Valley, NSW, then shipped from Newcastle. Nothing is drop-shipped from overseas and nothing is imported and personalised on arrival. See how they are made.
Sizing
| Size | Neck | Width |
|---|---|---|
| XS (number only) | 26cm to 30cm | 1.5cm |

| M | 37cm to 49cm | 2.5cm |
| L | 41cm to 59cm | 2.5cm |
Measure around the thickest part of the head and neck, not just the neck, because a martingale has to pass over the skull. Leads come in S at 122cm and L at 152cm.
One thing to know before you buy
The fittings are not stainless steel and can rust if they get wet, particularly in salt water. If your dog swims, buy the Aqua Dog range instead, which has a marine-grade stainless steel D-ring. We would rather tell you now than replace it later.
Common questions
Which dogs need a martingale? Greyhounds, whippets, salukis and other sighthounds, whose heads are narrower than their necks, plus any dog that backs out of a flat collar.
Is it a choke collar? No. A martingale is built to tighten only a limited amount and then stop, when fitted correctly.
How do I fit it? Adjusted properly, the two rings should not touch when it closes. Our collar guide explains the fit.
Can I get a matching lead? Yes, embroidered with your dog's name. See all leads.
