Hand made collars, lead, coats, and dog treats. https://collarsbychris.co.nz/ The story behind Collar by Chris. I lost her 10 months later. I now donate to N.Z.

Dog collars and leads handmade in New Zealand are made to a standard I would expect for my dogs. I was devastated when my 2 year old Lab was diagnosed with bone cancer of the jaw. I joined a small group called Bone Cancer Dogs and today it is a non profit organisation dedicated to raising funds. Feeling helpless seeing a close friend fight the same battle I decided to make collars to raise funds f

or Bone Cancer Dogs. Doing them together seemed to ease Lyns pain and the black cloud that hung over us. Some ideas were wow and others made us wonder what was in our coffee. Lyn fought a long hard battle and passed before I was able to set it up. It was hard going on without her so stopped. Those who suffer can not say I don’t want to do this so what right did I have to give up. We may never find a cure, but hope we can find better pain medication. My precious Kassa Bella and amazing friend Lyn fought a battle no human or animal should have to fight. Cancer can take loved ones, but can’t take the memories. In memory of Kass and Lyn.

Owls have been added to the cat toy collection. They are so soft and paws and little hands are enjoying them. The wee ones make perfect pin cushions.
There would be a couple of dog toys if Karma hadn't Lab tested them and they need new wings so new ones are being made.

I decided to make the collars and donate 50% of the profits to the BCD while feeling helpless watching a close friend fight bone cancer. I joined a small group called Bone Cancer dogs in 2004 when my 3 year old Lab fought cancer of the jaw. BCD has grown into a non profit organisation raising funds for research and awareness in bone cancer in dogs. Helping dogs in turn helps humans. Lyn loved coming up with new ideas and together we worked on the collars, ideas for web sites, and ways to sell them. Some days our ideas were so wayout we wondered what was in our coffee and laughing togther we forgot about the black cloud hanging over our heads. Working on them the pain seemed to ease for Lyn. Sadly Lyn passed before I was able to set it all up. Doing them without her isn't the same. Until a cure is found I hope good pain relief can be found to help those suffering at the hands of the beast. No human or animal should have to fight this beast. Together we can make a difference.

In memory of Kassabella and Lyn who both bought so much joy and endured so much pain. We will never forget you.

26.04.2019. Etsy new rules means I don’t get USA dollars. Without USA dollars I loose too much in banck fees so am donating the money to https://www.cancerresearchtrustnz.org.nz/ .
