Scrappy, your faithful scavenger in ARC Raiders, is essential for maintaining your supply chain. You’ll need a dog collar in order to fully develop and train him, which will help you to acquire more materials when he scavenges. In this guide, we’ll discuss what you need to know about dog collars, the best places to look for them, and how to level up Scrappy with ease.
How to Train Scrappy
Dog collars serve a useful purpose by unlocking the next level of training for Scrappy. Once you have a collar, go to the main menu and open Scrappy’s collection page and select the training option to level him up. Each level up allows Scrappy to gather more basic materials on your runs and at times rare materials as well; each level up will maintain a continued increase in your resources. Upgrading also improves the quantity and quality of materials he brings back from your runs.
Note: Since the item is rare, it can also be sold for currency that you can use on upgrades and weapons and other valuable items.
Locating Dog Collars for Scrappy
Dog collars are marked as items usually found in Residential areas. They are classified as rare, so don’t expect to see too many on each run. To increase your odds:
- Check every drawer, every shelf, and every storage container inside Residential buildings.
- Concentrate on clusters of Residential structures since they are more likely to contain these items.
Recommended Locations
Dam Battlegrounds
High-value loot areas like the Research and Administration building in the Dam Battlegrounds map is a good place to start your search for the dog collars.

The Raider’s Refuge and Village are good places to look for dog collars in the Blue Gate map.

In the Buried City map, you can head over to the Grandioso Apartments or Santa Maria Houses to try your luck on finding dog collars efficiently.
