About Us
Wandering Dog Co is a small, one-woman collar shop in a small town on the US west coast. What started as a hobby of making custom collars for my own dogs has expanded into a bustling business with canine customers all over the globe.
Behind The Business
I'm KC! I run this whole operation, from messages to social media, and my favorite part: making all the gear! With a little help from friends and family and the assistance of Badger the shop dog, I make it all happen.
​
When I'm not working in the shop, I'm a part time dog groomer, hobbyist dog trainer, adventuring, or pursuing my next overly ambitious project.
​
...but I'm probably working in the shop.
Our Story
Back in 2018, I discovered fabric collars on Etsy. My dogs' collar collection slowly expanded, and I got the idea to make collars myself. I've always been crafty with an eye for detail. With the help of a sewing machine more than twice my age, I began making fabric collars.
In 2019, Wandering Dog Co officially opened up shop on Etsy, and later after the insistence of some friends, I tried my hand at biothane.
​
When I began facing the limitations of biothane, I looked to leatherwork, a similar craft with a bit more creative freedom.
