Bridle leather is currently only available in black, brown, burgundy and chestnut from our tannery. If other colours become available we’ll consider adding them to our range. Brightly coloured leather is inferior quality and not built to last, so we’ll never use it in our products.

You can choose silver*, brass or aged brass. All d-rings are welded and screws are glued. Everything is built to last!

* We use stainless steel where possible on our leather collars but in some cases it’s just not available so we use other metals. We’ve never had any complaints about hardware failing or rusting. If you want only stainless hardware on your collar the design options available are a No Frills, a Diva Dog or Trixie Dog, a regular Decoder or a Bubbler. Our paracord/biothane and brahma wares are made using only stainless steel hardware (or brass).

– We hand pick the best quality bridle leather available.
– We finish, seal and waterproof all of our pieces.
– We custom make each order to the specifications you supply.
– Each piece is meticulously handcrafted from start to finish.
– All the hardware used is the strongest available.
– All our designs have been road tested for strength.

You will not find better quality leather products for you or your pet. But don’t just take our word for it, take a look at what our happy customers have to say about our products!

Our goods are sealed and waterproofed before we send them to you. Avoid submerging in water – dams, lakes, the ocean and swimming pools. If your leather wares get wet or dirty just wipe them with a damp cloth and leave them somewhere to dry out. NOT in the sun or near a heat source. When dry apply conditioner to rejuvenate and preserve the leather. Even if your pieces don’t get wet, rub some leather conditioner into them every few months to keep them supple and water resistant.

Our leather wares are made to withstand the best that any dog can give in day-to-day use. However, for safety’s sake we would not recommend using one of our wares for high impact work such as bite work and protection work. If you require a working dog collar we can modify any of our designs to be suitable for this, but you need to let us know when you’re placing your order.

Both Brahma and Biothane are a durable, weather-resistant, low maintenance and easy to clean webbing with a soft and durable PVC coating. They’re a vegan friendly alternative to leather that feels soft and supple straight out of the box.

Brahma is thicker than Biothane and isn’t sold in Australia. Biothane is available locally and more colours are available. Neither substrate will rot or smell and both have a break load of over 450kg per 1″.

Important: Different width collars will have the appropriate width closure style. What’s shown below may not be identical to what you receive (ie if the image is a 25mm buckle and you order a collar with a 17mm closure).

Please note that all Biothane items now have eyelets on the holes:

Some colours are exclusive to my supplier in Europe so aren’t shown on this chart. Please message me if you’d like to see to see a swatch of saddle brown, burnt orange, powder tan, silver, rose gold, petrol blue or pastel pink. Please note that the glitters of the colours rose gold and silver may rub off.

Most, but not all, of our paracord colours can be seen in see this album on our Facebook page. A good place for colour combination inspiration is our Instagram.

Only ready to ship paracord collars are sold without a matching leash. Bespoke paracord orders are sold as sets. If you’ve no need for a Biothane leash you can elect to donate it to the charity we support, Fetching Dogs.

Our wares are perfect for dogs that like to get wet and dirty*. Just rinse in cold water and leave on a towel to air dry. Don’t ever scrub paracord with a brush as it will damage the fibres. If your collar gets particularly dirty soak it in cold water and bleach-free detergent overnight, then rinse and leave on a towel to air dry.

Brahma and Biothane can be cleaned under the tap and towel dried or wiped with a baby wipe. We’ve noticed with Brahma that if exposed to the elements (ie a collar left on an inside/outside dog 24/7) it can go quite stiff over time, so we don’t recommend that type of use. Neither of these PVC coated webbings like to come in contact with spot on treatments. Please wait a week or so after treament to resume using your Brahma or Biothane collar.

*Please note that collars with side release buckles are not suitable for beach days. Aluminium doesn’t like salt water and it will erode over time.

Our non-leather wares are made using either entirely stainless steel or solid brass. We never use cheap hardware.

If you order a bespoke paracord collar with a biothane adapter one piece of hardware on those adapters is not stainless steel. If it’s important to you that all the hardware on your collar is stainless steel please let us know so we can make the adapter using only stainless steel hardware.

No, the substrates aren’t suited to being decorated so only undecorated non-leather collars are available.

No, we don’t. However if you’d like to try any of the ready to ship items before you buy, or have your dog’s neck measured by us, you can make an appointment to visit the Ruthless Photos studio in Alexandria, NSW where our display rack lives.

You can send an enquiry via our contact form but please note that we already support a number of local groups and it’s unlikely that we can donate to any more causes at this present time.

No, we don’t. The only place you can buy our products is directly from us.
