Why Paracord is the Premier Choice for Your Dog's Accessories

At Otis & I, we understand that choosing the right accessories for your dog is more than just a practical decision—it's about ensuring safety, durability, and style for your beloved companion. That's why we recommend paracord for all your dog gear needs.

Here's why paracord stands out as the best choice:

1. Unmatched Durability and Strength

Paracord, originally used in parachute cords, boasts a high tensile strength, typically holding up to 550 pounds of weight. This makes paracord dog collars and leads incredibly durable, perfect for dogs that might pull or for those who engage in more demanding outdoor activities. The fiber’s resistance to ripping and fraying means that your investment lasts longer, no matter the adventure​.

2. Water and Mildew Resistance

Paracord is not only strong but also resistant to water and mildew, making it ideal for dogs who love to swim or play in wet conditions. Unlike other materials that might absorb water and develop odours or mildew, paracord stays clean and dries quicker, ensuring that smelly dog gear is a thing of the past​​.

3. Versatility and Customisation

The adaptability of paracord is a key feature, allowing for a variety of designs and customization options. Whether you prefer vibrant colours or subtle hues, paracord can be woven into numerous patterns, ensuring that each piece is as unique as your pet. 

4. Lightweight Comfort

Despite its strength, paracord is lightweight, ensuring that it doesn’t weigh down your pet’s neck or get in the way during playtime or long walks. Its smooth texture prevents chafing and irritation against your dog’s skin, making it comfortable for all-day wear​​.

5. Easy Maintenance

Caring for paracord is easy. It can be cleaned by simply washing with soap and water and dries quickly. This low-maintenance material does not require special cleaners or treatments to maintain its appearance and durability​​.
