Introducing - Dog Collars 'Handmade by The Black Dog Bakery'!

24/5/2014

We are very excited indeed to be introducing a brand new range of products to The Black Dog Bakery - our very own handmade dog collars - handmade by me!

Aside from dogs and baking, one of my other interests has always been sewing - I've always enjoyed creating things and a little while ago I decided to try and make a posh 'Sunday Best' collar for The Black Dog.  The one thing his 'Dad' has never been too keen on me doing with The Black Dog is dressing him up - something to the effect of 'He's a boy, he doesn't do fancy dress' has been heard on more than one occasion - but collars seem to be acceptable!

So I made him one; and then another; and suddenly he had three shiny new collars & I was slightly hooked!  Some of our dog-owning pals saw them and in much the same way that our dog treats began to become popular, they asked if I could make collars for their dogs.  And so, now, I'm very excited to be adding our very own selection of 'Handmade by The Black Dog Bakery' Dog Collars to our product range.

All of our collars feature strong metal buckles made from diecast zinc and come in a range of designs and sizes.  I purposely choose bright, colourful fabrics as I make the collars to stand out - these are intended to be 'Sunday Best' collars for your dog to look their best and show off rather than everyday collars for wearing 'down the park'!

For that reason some of our fabrics are of limited supply and once used, will no longer be available in that particular design.  You should also note that as each collar is made individually and is unique, some variation in positioning of the pattern of the fabric on the collar is possible.

To view our range of Handmade Dog Collars at great introductory prices visit our dedicated page at our online shop.

It should also be noted that our collars are intended as fashion collars - as with any collar, lead &/or harness combination, all dog owners should ensure they use equipment which is suited to their dog's strength and ability to walk comfortably to heel on lead.  We cannot take any responsibility for incidents that occur whilst any dog is wearing one of our collars, if you feel that these collars may not be suitable for your dog please consult with a dog trainer or behaviour professional before purchasing.

The Black Dog Bakery - bakers of healthy, wholesome dog treats made with all the care your dog deserves!
