DYI Dog Project: Parachute Collar May 5, 2017

How to make a paracord dog collar

What is paracord? There are so many fun paracord projects out there. Right now, our favorite one is this DIY paracord dog collar. It’s the ultimate dog collar made with about 40ft of 550 paracord.

This paracord dog collar is your best bet if you are looking for a stylish collar that is also super strong and durable.

If you’ve been following our paracord projects, then you know the Cobra weave is one of the more popular weaves. For this paracord dog collar, we are going to take it one step further and do a King Cobra weave! This weave is super strong and even adds a thickness and padding to the original cobra weave, making the collar more comfortable for pooches of all sizes.

The tutorial below is done for a large dog, so our collar ends up being a whopping 20″! If your pup is smaller, you can follow this simple rule to calculate the amount of paracord you’ll need: 1.5 feet of paracord for every 1 inch of your paracord dog collar.

Paracord dog collar tutorial:

Supplies You Need for a Paracord Dog Collar:

• 550 Paracord: 19ft one color, 19ft a second color (to make a 20″ collar) • Plastic buckle (or metal, whichever you prefer) • A D-Ring (metal or plastic) • Lighter • Scissors

Step 1:

You are going to start out by joining both pieces of paracord to make one single cord. First, trim an end of each color at an angle. Then use your lighter to melt the ends and press them together while they are still hot.

Trim one end of each cord at an angle.
