Our Story
Your Paws Only is a small collar company that opened because of the need for pet gear that was safe and functional, but also fashionable. Located in beautiful Conception Bay South, Newfoundland and Labrador, our facility is surrounded by nature trails and the stunning, rugged shoreline of the North Atlantic.
Key to the quality of any pet supply are the components from which it is made and the skilled craftsmanship in its manufacture. We have thirteen years of experience in both researching and testing the best hardware in the industry, and refining our techniques to provide safe, beautiful products to our customers. Components are sourced only from North American suppliers. Our collars are made from 100% nylon webbing because of its superior strength and durability. It holds its color and is soft and gentle on your pet’s skin.
The clasps used in our collars are a mix of Nylon and Acetyl able to hold your strongest puller but still light and contoured for comfort. The hardware we use is either die-cast or welded to hold up to rough trail runs or a shoreline play. We use only industrial thread made for impact. We may be a small home-based business, but our equipment is industry-leading: industrial sewing machines designed for sewing for strength. This combination is what makes a collar as rugged and tough as our beautiful landscape.
We have designed and created many of our own patterns inspired by the culture of our province--a full NL Collection as unique as Newfoundland & Labrador itself, featuring flags, puffins and whales, mummers and more. However, we do not want to limit our customers’ choices, so we are constantly looking for new patterns designed by awarding-winning textile artists from all over the world. You will be delighted by our selection!
