I challenged myself to take on a new hobby, and build a custom leather dog collar for my Doberman's first birthday. Having no leather retailers in my state that I could go and see in person, the first 6 months was ordering material, some working, others not so much. A lot of waiting on hardware deliveries. My first collar for Jäger was the 12 gauge collar, and from there leather work for me has become a cathartic output, allowing me to lose my troubles while buried in my work. Enter Firefighter accessories. I've been a firefighter for a Central Jersey fire department for the past 12 years. For those here looking for dog collars and not in the know, firefighters love all things leather. Radio straps, glove straps, and helmets. The volume of my business goes to the fire service, however i'd be telling a lie if I didn't admit to enjoying doing collars more. Follow up pictures of a happy puppy and their new neck wear beats a salty firefighter showcasing his new radio strap to me. Thanks for looking at my shop!
