Led & Collared® is a small homegrown New Zealand company

For committed dog and cat owners

who treat their animals as family

Led & Collared® is a small homegrown New Zealand company that offers customised & personalised pet gear. We’re dog owners and animal lovers, so we understand that pets are family. That’s why our products are specifically designed to strengthen and enhance the unique bond between humans and their pets.

We make nearly everything ourselves, with our own hands (and some fancy machines), right here in New Zealand. We pay attention to detail and we’re obsessed with getting it right. So we’re constantly refining and improving our product design; and we back ourselves with the Led & Collared® Gear Guarantee. Our gear is different because it's:

Customised & personalised, so you can design your own and show your pet how much you love them.
Durable & reliable, so you can be confident that your gear will keep your pet safe and secure.
Functional & non-toxic, so your gear will do what it’s supposed to won’t make your pet itchy or ill.

Our range includes dog & cat collars, leads, harnesses, tags, feeding gear, safety lights and signage.

We support local community

At Led & Collared® we also believe in supporting local community. That’s why we pledge to donate One Dollar per Collar sold to St John Therapy Pets.

There is a lovely synergy between Led & Collared® and St John Therapy Pets. Both are focussed on that magical relationship between humans and animals. Led & Collared® uses specialised products to enhance the unique bond between humans and animals; while St John Therapy Pets helps vulnerable people by giving them physical contact, interaction and companionship with animals. We’re honoured and privileged to have this opportunity to help those in need.

Lorna

I am the founder, owner and primary operator of Led & Collared®. I've studied and worked in a range of areas and my career has been challenging and rewarding. I started Led & Collared® because I wanted to create something of my own, take a risk, and find a way to centre some of my work around dogs and animals. Because nothing in life holds more importance to me than family, and to me, dogs are family.

Mark

Mark is Lorna's husband and also an operator of Led & Collared® (nominated as Chief Inventory Officer). Mark has also worked in a wide range of areas and industries - but in recent years, his work has centred around finance. While Mark doesn't have quite the same obsession with dogs as Lorna, being married to her has helped to slowly cultivate a solid love for the family canines!

Led & Collared® Gear Guarantee

At Led & Collared® we’re obsessed with getting it right. That’s why we offer a guarantee against any material defect or faulty construction. Outside normal wear and tear (and chewing), if anything goes wrong, we want to know about it so we can make it right.

Within the first 6 months of use, we’ll replace any defective or faulty products without question. For further details on our Gear Guarantee – please see our product specifications page.

We are grateful to all human owners and their animals for modelling our goodies
