Learn the best way to clean your Ecoweave Monster Yetis Dog Collar without damaging the recycled webbing or vibrant sublimated print.
Quick answer
Hand wash your Ecoweave Monster Yetis Dog Collar in cool water with mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat to protect the recycled webbing and sublimated print.
Why gentle cleaning matters for Ecoweave collars
The Ecoweave Monster Yetis Dog Collar is made from webbing that comes from recycled plastic bottles. While the material is tough, the sublimated print and bartack stitching need a little care. Harsh detergents, bleach, or machine washing can dull the bright pattern or loosen the threads over time.
Because Cycle Dog eliminates plastic slider hardware, there are no weak points to worry about—but the fabric itself benefits from a gentle approach. Stick to hand washing and you'll keep the collar looking fresh for years.
Step-by-step cleaning guide
- Remove the collar and rinse: Take the collar off your dog and rinse it under cool running water to remove loose dirt and saliva. Avoid hot water, which can set stains and weaken the fibers. Hot water is the enemy of both the recycled webbing and the print.
- Hand wash with mild soap: Fill a bowl or sink with cool water and add a drop of mild dish soap or pet-safe shampoo. Submerge the collar and gently rub the fabric with your fingers. Pay extra attention to the buckle area where grime builds up. Do not use bleach, fabric softener, or stain removers—they can strip the sublimated color.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the collar under cool running water until all soap is gone. Soap residue can irritate your dog's skin and attract more dirt. Leftover soap is the most common cause of skin irritation from a clean collar.
- Air dry away from heat and sun: Lay the collar flat on a towel or hang it in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Do not use a dryer, radiator, or direct sunlight—heat can warp the hardware and fade the print. Drying in direct sun will eventually fade even the most fade-resistant sublimated print.
