Is the collar water resistant/waterproof?

No. Although I have kept mine on my dog when she was outside in light rain, I try not to. One of our first 2 collars was damaged by a fairly small amount of liquid. (The second one broke when I pulled on it, instead of her collar... oops!)

yes, it is waterproof. Mine is outside on the patio and exposed to all weather.

It is definitely not waterproof. I've had it in the rain with no problems. And I believe the manufacturer claims it is water resistant.

My dog has been out in the rain with no problems but can't say for sure about bathing because the groomer takes her collar off !

I would say its water resistant, but it doesn't seem tight enough to be water proof.

I could not find anything that clears states if it is water proof or water resistant. However, it is made from 100% polyester material, which many consider to be water resistant.

No, it is not. There is an outdoor barrier unit that is compatible with the collar.

I think you are supposed to take the collar off prior to it getting wet. If it was just once, it's probably ok, but I would not continually expose it to water.

unfortunately, my dog hasn't had the need to have the collar submerged in water since i live in the city and my dog doesn't come into contact with any type of water submergen in the winter time. right now, he has only worn it in the rain with no problem and wallowing his neck in the snow so i really can't say. Sorry.

No not really. It is ok in the rain without problems. My dog sent swimming with his on and it seemed to shorten the collars life span. If your new to this door I would recommend having a spare collar around. Best wishes.

I think it is stainless steel. Fairly confident that the collar will not rust!

I've used this and similar collars for years without any problem of a perspiration problem. I don't think it would be a problem in that regard. I live in NC.CL

Both the collar and the remote are waterproof. Even if the cover comes off the charging port it's still waterproof. My dog swims with his on all the time and we've never had a problem.

No. It is water resistant but, definitely not water proof. There have also been some cases where heavy sweaters (people who sweat a lot, not the article of clothing) can cause it to short out due to excessive amounts of sweat. I haven't had this problem yet.

I don't think so, but the dog's collar is accessible. The problem is that the shirt had no detectable effect.

I'm not sure about swimming but the collars are waterproof if on while getting a bath. Does the insert give that info? Sorry I can't be of any more help..my dog is never in water as in swimming.

I haven't had any issues at all with the collar while my dog was swimming. I took him duck hunting all season last year with no issues. Love this collar
