Paracord bracelets, lanyards, keyfobs, and leash wraps!

Awhile ago I decided that I really wanted to make a leash and collar for my dog. This was like, 3 years ago. Well, I finally got around to learning about knots and ropework and made some stuff.

There's the small bracelet:


I'll be selling these for $5. Lots of colors will be available - as will plastic side-release buckle closure.

And there's the large bracelet:


The large bracelet will have all the same options as the small bracelet, with a few key additions - for example:


THe large bracelets will be $8, with compasses etc. being additional. There are also lots of choices for knife lanyards and keychains, knid of like this:


You'll be able to pick lengths, colors, styles, glow beads, other beads... They're going to start at $3. The sky's the limit with these. And last but not least are the leash wraps - I'm really proud of these. Lots of colors. With or without the carabiner.

The leash wraps will start at $10 (plus the cost of the leash). Adding the carabiner to a wrap will vary in cost depending on the carabiner.

Hopefully I'll have more cord soon to show all the options for colors etc. soon!

Get this!

You had better sit down for this one: There are at least 2 people who read these posts! I honestly can't believe it. And they have questions. I can't believe that either.

First up, I still am working on the (long) article about socialization and its importance. There has been a lot of crazy stuff going on here at home (none of which is pup related, unfortunately) that has been keeping me from turning my notes into actual coherent material. But I'm working on it, I swear.

Second, I've recieved several messages re: the pup who was found leashed to my car door. He's doing great! Literally the day after I found him he was adopted (dogs with "stories" don't usually last long in rescue) by a young couple that seemed very nice. They were both raised with dogs, but Kirby (the name they gave him) was to be their "first" dog. I felt no trepidation about them, and I don't think Kirby did either.

And last, my full on training site is still in its infancy. I find that I'm totally overwhelmed by everything that I want it to do - so much so that I'm paralyzed by choice. I just need to get my stuff together and put something up.

I'm also working on some homemade leash and collar projects, as well as lanyards, key fobs, bracelets, and bookmarks. Pics are coming.
