Designer dog collars!

As we have four dogs between us, we always seem to be drawn to the dog collars and leads aisle in our local Pets at Home store. But we always feel disappointed with the range on offer. Not only are there limitations in choice but also their range never seems to change! And of course, everyone buys them, so your dogs can't be individuals and stand out from the crowds. So imagine our delight when we realised you could buy the hardware (buckles, D-rings and adjuster) to make your own designer dog collars!

So we bought some 1 inch wide black webbing too as well as some grosgrain ribbon. We had no instructions, instead we just copied a collar we already had. They were so simple to make, we had two made in a little over an hour and at a fraction of the cost of shop bought ones!


We are so excited by the endless possibilities for bespoke dog collars - especially as you can buy different colours of buckles, webbing etc. You could even use patterned material instead of ribbon - there's no stopping us!
