Paracord Dog Collars

I don't know where we first got the idea for our Paracord range of products, I think we had started making our fleece tug toys, platting and knotting happily away and my husband then went on from there, the idea evolving probably after seeing Bear Gylls hanging off a cliff edge and saving himself with his paracord bracelet and being impressed with the paracord (not Bear Grylls!)And so he started weaving with the paracord, learning the different knots and designs, what combinations work well, which colours sit well together and finding out in the meantime that the paracord does offer a strong, durable Paracord Dog Collar but also it’s flexible too.  Different weaves working better for different dogs, the narrower...
