What Do We Do?
All our items are hand braided using paracord or PPM cord, depending on the product. They are fabulous materials to work with and result in a soft yet hard wearing product and does not degrade with wear or weather. The colours available vary from conservative classics, to bright and vibrant. With so many colours to choose from, you are sure to find your perfect colour combinations.

Our History
It all started back in 2013 when I made a few lanyards as a hobby and wanted something different to the boring piece of string and I love bright colours! I then made a few lanyards for friends who then posted a picture on Facebook and as they say "the rest was history". A business Facebook page was set up for Gundog Lanyards and within 24 hours I had more orders than I could make and received trade enquiries from the likes of Sporting Saint, Active Hound, Fassimare and featured in several specialist magazines and digital magazines as must have items. Then came the AeroDummys, a product I developed for myself so I could take my training with me anywhere, they flew out like hotcakes, literally. Then finally came the leads, the product that took the most time to test and develop because I'm a stickler for perfection!
