Levels 1-5 Explained

Keeper Collars™ was inspired by a dog who truly lived up to her name. When our founder, Sue, adopted her first Belgian Malinois through a breed rescue, she knew right away—this dog was a keeper. But like many rescue dogs, Keeper came with quirks, including a strong dislike for anything going over her head. Sue needed a collar that offered the control of a prong, without the hassle or discomfort.

So, she created one.

Sue’s innovative hidden prong design paired nylon webbing with a side-release buckle, making it both effective and gentle. Fellow dog owners quickly took notice—and Keeper Collars was born. What started as a creative solution for one beloved dog has grown into a line of thoughtfully designed collars made for real dogs and their real-life needs.
