Make a Simple Leather Dog Collar

In this class we will make a simple dog collar. Please bring the measurement for your dog's neck measured snuggly. We will go over how to attach the buckle, measure the length, where to put the hole spacing and how the thickness of the leather affects the end result measurement. There will be a guest star of one of my Whippets to assist us in testing out the measurements. We will also discuss different types of hardware, finishes, quality, and when to use stitching, rivets, chicago screws, and durability questions. Each student will leave with a finished plain black 1in or 3/4in dog collar at the end of the class.

All tools, leather, and supplies will be provided.

Prerequisites: None. This class can be taken as a beginner and all skills will be discussed and taught.

This class is best for ages 14 and above. Those under 14 should seek instructor approval before registering. Exceptions will typically be granted. Non-members under 18 should confirm with the instructor the rules for underage participants. This class is open to all races and genders. If there is anything you wish the instructor to be aware of ahead of the class. Please email. This class is a safe space, those who violate our code of conduct will be removed.

The class will meet in the Main Room at the Leesburg location unless otherwise specified.
