I’ve been designing, testing, and making quality gear since 2019 with my product tester Rowan. Don’t settle for “one size fits most”, you and your dog deserve better. I’d love to work with you on custom or made-to-order gear that is exactly what you & your dog need! #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

I have to admit that the purple is my favorite color of all the ones we stock! Rowan isn’t particular, he just wants to chase bunnies… What’s your (dog’s) favorite color? #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

Get gear sized for your dog! Is your dog under 10 lbs? Over 100 lbs? Somewhere in between? Get the right sized gear for your dog and keep them safe & secure without weighing them down with heavy gear, or risking them with hardware that's not designed for a big pup. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

After a busy day working on orders it’s nice to step away from the computer, sewing machine, or cutting table to unwind in the evening. I love to work on pet portraits, including this special one for a family member. How do you unwind at the end of a busy day? #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

I love working on “design your own leash” orders! It’s fun seeing what color combinations you select for your pups, like these hands free traffic leashes in 3 different colors, and the heavy duty hands-free leash belt to go with them. #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

“A mandala is a combination of sacred geometry, which is always perfect and precise, with creativity, which is messy and original.” - Kathy Rausch Mandalas are not only a beautiful artistic expression, they can also bring some order to the chaos in your dog walks. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

One of my favorite soft pastel pieces from last year, shown here in process.  This was a little hard for me to draw. What isn’t easy to see is that the “texture” on his left cheek is actually scarring and irregular hair growth from two different dog attacks… #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

Celebrating our most popular patterned webbing - the red serape! This soft polyester webbing is available in 3 widths for leashes & belts, including 5/8” and 1” with reflective stitching for late-night neighborhood dog walks so you're more visible to traffic. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

You may think that Rowan is asking for belly rubs… He’s actually showing discomfort at our photo shoot, and trying to get out of the posing that I’m asking him to do by offering this behavior instead. Have you ever misunderstood your dog’s communication? #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

This is our personal favorite: tie-dye sublimated polyester webbing - available in leashes, belts, cross-body straps, and even collars. Bonus of reflective stitching along both edges, on both sides - for safer nighttime neighborhood walks. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

Tired of the limited leash selections whenever you go to the store? Ever ordered something online only to find that what you received wasn't even close to the description? I'm hear to answer questions on which equipment is the best choice for you and your dog. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

Would you spend it on toys, beds, and treats?  Equipment for hiking or other private park rental?  How about investing in a great dog trainer?  For some, we are lucky to have most of what we need and that $ might be put away for future medical bills… #smallbusiness #dogsofbluesky

Can you run when your shoelaces are tied together? “No-pull” harnesses work using physical restriction of the shoulder joint. Instead of working against your dog, work WITH them by using a no-pull leash & Y-front harness to re-direct the pull, not restrict. #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness

Dog leash too long? Don't resort to tying knots in your leash to shorten it - that actually weakens the webbing! Instead, get your pup and yourself an adjustable leash!  Drop a comment with your dogs weight and I'll send you a link to the right size leash for you! #DogsofBluesky #SmallBusiness
