Adrien Agreste, here is the Miraculous of the dog which will grant you the power to locate and fetch whatever your ball has touched. You will use it for the greater good, then you will return it to me.... Can I trust you?
The Dog Miraculous is a collar necklace that, whenever Barkk inhabits it, transforms the wearer into a dog-themed superhero with the power of Adoration.[1]
To activate the collar necklace, the user must speak the transformation phrase: "On The Hunt". To deactivate the collar necklace, the user must speak the detransformation phrase: "Lay Down".
It was previously being stored in the Chinese Miracle Box. When the situation called for it, the collar necklace was temporarily lent to Sabrina Raincomprix, who used it to transform into Miss Hound.
In "Evolution", in order to retrieve the Rabbit Miraculous from Monarch, Ladybug borrows the Dog Miraculous from a past version of Master Fu, giving it to Alix in the present, who uses it to transform into Canigirl. After stopping Monarch from changing the past, Alix, as Bunnyx, returns the Dog Miraculous to Master Fu, returning it back in the Chinese Miracle Box of the past.
In general, the Dog Miraculous is a collar necklace. In its charged mode, when Barkk inhabits it, it is a black collar necklace with an open end. The tips of the edges are shaped like gray dog heads, with two rounded light brown bead-like objects next to each one. At the front of the jewelry, there are five light larger brown bead-like objects. If a minor is using the Miraculous, the necklace starts running out of power, they make a beeping sound, and the bead-like objects start discoloring one at a time as an indication of how much time (one bead is equivalent to one minute) the Dog Miraculous holder has left.
In its activated mode, the five beads are grey.
In its camouflage mode, the collar changes color and form depending on whose possession it's in:
The Miraculous' camouflaged form when worn by Sabrina.
The Miraculous' camouflaged form when worn by Félix.
The Miraculous' camouflaged form when worn by Alix.
The Miraculous' camouflaged form when worn by Marinette.
The Miraculous' camouflaged form when worn by Chloé.
The Dog Miraculous has the ability to transform its wielder into a dog-themed superhero, granting its wielder incredible powers of speed, endurance, agility, stamina and strength.
Its special weapon is an unbreakable ball, which can be utilized as both a weapon, a communicator, and an object that can be used to breathe underwater. Its special superpower is named Fetch, which gives the user the ability to fetch and return any arbitrary object that has been touched by the ball in order to obtain their goal, like defeating a villain. As long as the superpower isn't used, the wielder can remain transformed indefinitely. However, as soon as the superpower is used, the wielder loses power and the transformation wears off in about approximately five minutes. The collar also has the ability to give the wielder the costume they truly desire.

At times a collar necklace is also called a dog collar, which is befitting as Barkk is the kwami of adoration and a dog wearing a collar means they have a home or an owner.
