Built for the Dogs Who Never Back Down

American-made. Veteran-built. Ruffneck tough.

Gear With a Purpose

At American Ruffneck Collars, “good enough” doesn’t cut it. Founded by a Navy Special Operations veteran, we design gear that’s been stress-tested, field-tested, and dog-tested—because when it comes to protecting what matters, failure isn’t an option. From raw materials to final stitch, every collar, leash, and harness is built for endurance, strength, and dogs that never quit.

Inspired by Loyalty. Fueled by Sacrifice.

Our logo carries the name Recon—a loyal protector who gave his life defending his family from a wild boar attack. He never hesitated, never gave up. His courage lives in every product we make. We don’t just make gear for dogs—we make it for your Recon.

I’ve been through my share of collars over the years, but nothing holds up like this. My Belgian Malinois is high drive and rough on everything and this is the first collar that hasn’t frayed or stretched.

I’ve got a 95-pound working dog who doesn’t stop for anything. We’ve snapped buckles, torn stitching, and worn out ‘tactical’ collars in weeks. Not this one. Ruffneck gear holds steady no matter what we’re doing.
