And yes, she gets IN and OUT of there all by herself.

Check out the new category we’ve just added… Custom Options! We want you to have choices (as if our gobs of ribbon options weren’t enough). This is something that has been in the works for a while now, and we’ve finally added it!

Upgrade your big dog or mid-size dog collar to heavy duty metal buckles. Available in stylish nickel or brass finishes.

Choose your own webbing color! We’ve got seven stylish webbing colors. Mix and match ribbons with different colors, at no additional charge!

We’ve also added an upgrade option for a double sided leash. Now you can have beautiful ribbons on both sides of your leash!

New Old Stuff - Just Added!
We know many of you were missing our dog harnesses and key fobs. We didn’t discontinue them, just put them on hold while we got the rest of the site up and running. Well, now they are back! Be sure to check out all of the great new ribbons we have available.

Ever wondered who meticulously wrapped, carefully packaged, and hand delivered all of those pet collars to the post office? My name is Taylor and I’m proud to say that as the other half of Pattern & Paw, I run the shipping department among other things.

I guess you could call me the “behind the scenes” guy, making sure that each and every new collar finds its way from the assembly line to your furry companion.

We’ve had more than a few customers contact us for a custom size dog collar - their pooch is too small to wear size extra small. They’ve even gone so far as to buy kitten collars without the breakaway buckles, that’s how small these tiny dogs are.

So, because we pride ourselves on offering flexible sizes for all dogs, from the itty bitty to the truly massive… we’ve added a new size to our line of Toy Dog Collars. It’s called “Mini”, and it adjusts all the way down to 6″.

Check out our huge selection of Toy Dog Collar designs, available in Small, XSmall, and now, Mini!

This is exactly why I left Colorado…

… to avoid scenes like this. I knew that it occasionally snowed in Tennessee, but I never thought it’d actually stick.

Waking up to the sound of ice-scrapers on windshields is something I can surely live without.

It’s tax time… which means the dreaded task of counting inventory… in other words going through lots and lots of ribbon.

Someone, on the other hand, seems to enjoy this mind-numbing task a bit too much…

Makes you wonder who’s really in charge here?

The winter sun makes it’s way into the office. It’s too high in the summertime to shine directly through the window, but just recently, for a few short hours in the morning, the light makes its way across the office floor. Kitty, it true cat fashion, finds that brief spot of sunlight and takes full advantage of it’s warmth, even if that means leaning herself up against the wall.

Better make sure that all extremities make it into the sun - heaven forbid her tail get cold!

Pattern & What?
Pattern & Paw.

Yes, it’s true. Lindsay Designs is no more. But Pattern & Paw happily takes over as the maker of stylish handcrafted pet collars and accessories.

Lindsay Designs has had a long run. And after 3 years, we decided it was time for a change. After hundreds of tail-wagging customers, we decided that pet collars were our pride and joy, and we wanted a name to reflect that.

Same great products. Fabulous new look.

We’ve redesigned the entire site to be more userfriendly. You can now browse our collar designs by color and style. Want to see only the polka dots? Easy as pie. How about just the pretty in pink styles? Done. See the collars in close-up detail so you know exactly what you’ll be getting. Vibrant colors, beautiful ribbons, quality craftsmanship.

What do you think about the new site?
