Why Waterproof Dog Gear Is Essential in the Pacific Northwest
If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you already know: wet happens. Whether it’s misty mornings in Portland, a muddy trail near Seattle, or a surprise hailstorm in the Gorge, moisture is just part of life here — for you and your dog.
And if your dog’s gear can’t handle it? You’re stuck with soggy collars, stinky leashes, and constant cleanups.
Here’s why switching to waterproof gear makes your rainy-day walks (and muddy hikes) a whole lot easier.
1. The PNW Weather Is Wild — and Constantly Changing
Rain isn’t just a season here. It’s part of the lifestyle. A dry morning can turn into a soaked afternoon, and trails that looked fine yesterday can turn into muddy obstacle courses today.
Waterproof dog gear keeps you ready, no matter what the sky throws your way. No need to plan around dry weather or pack a backup collar.
2. Waterproof = Stinkproof
Wet nylon collars absorb moisture, trap dirt, and start to smell... fast. Leather gear takes forever to dry and can crack or stretch out.
Our waterproof collars and leashes are made with biothane — a coated webbing that resists odor, repels water, and wipes clean in seconds.
No mildew. No mystery smells. No more dog gear that needs its own air dryer.
3. You Don’t Have Time for Laundry-Level Cleanup
After a muddy hike or rainy park run, you just want to get home. You don’t want to scrub gear in the sink or wait for it to dry overnight.
Biothane cleans up with one wipe. That’s it. A damp towel or rinse under the faucet and your gear is ready for the next adventure.
4. Built for Real-Life Dogs
We designed our gear for the kind of dogs who chase sticks into rivers, roll in the grass, and never check the weather forecast.

If it works here, it’ll work anywhere.
Real Reviews from Local Dog People
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Love it. High quality. I wanted to gear our girl out with waterproof, odor proof gear and this fits the bill.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“My dog and I take long walks in the mornings and we also do K9 scent work, so yes we drag it through grass, sand, dirt and mud. I could never get my old line clean enough to be stink free. I am so glad I stumbled upon this product, I love that I could pick my own color combination. It’s stylish and it is easy to wash. The seller was easy to communicate with, made color combination suggestions and sent photos so I could more easily visualize what I was buying. I am happy with the product.”
