It all started when I was still young. I was in 4-H and competing in Agility, Rally and obedience with my Collies. My Dad was actually the one who got me interested in dogs, when he started agility with his old dog Holly. I had watched him for a year or two before deciding that was what i wanted to do agility with my girl Aurora. I then began to get interested in conformation.

I noticed a lot of the Conformation people had fancy little leather leashes, and i looked around at the ones for sale and thought they were way too expensive. When my 4-H leader offered to show our club how to make them, I jumped on the chance. I picked it up right away and have been making leashes ever since. It started with leather leashes and now includes collars and leashes in both Paracord and leather.
