I have yet to find the line between customer service and going out of business. I am getting sick of offering refunds because my customers are not intelligent enough to take proper measurements. So I am left with a few options: close the business, no refunds policy, or no custom orders. Could I get some advice from some experienced entrepreneurs?

Does anyone have a template for a dog harness? I just need a template with the calculations for adjusting sizes. I would like a normal harness for going on a walk no special uses. Yes I have tried looking at a normal harnesses and getting the measurements. I just wasn't happy with the outcome and don't know how to figure out sizing for other dogs. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. I have been in business only a month and a half. I am getting a lot of hits but only 7 sales. Etsy had about 40 sales which I thought was strange. I use Shopify and their templates.

Alright it let me in. I can not change the footer. It won't even let me change the text. The middle area you are talking about is the way the site has its item collection setup. I really wish I could afford a web designer but I ended up just getting this template. I changed the about me section. Kind of lost what to put in there.

Ferg, Thank you for the response. I am trying to get into my website but my computers acting kind of funny. In regards to the footer were you talking about removing the text "footer" or the entire footer? Not sure how much I can do I pre bought the layout. With the other stuff were you talking about the quick shop thing they have?

Hello. I have been getting a lot of orders on Etsy but my full website has been less successfully. I would appreciate any critique. Www.spoileddogleather.com

Thanks guys. I was under the wrong impression that Springfield got their stuff from Tandy. I will give those a try.

The Tandy Chicago screws are just rubbing off and looking nickel plated with no effort at all. My show piece I have had for just about a month now looks like it has shiny nickel hardware. These are for dog collars so they will have some wear and I can't send out a product like this. My dee rings and buckles from strapworks.com are doing just fine it is only the Tandy parts. Anyone know where I can get quality 1/4" brass chicago screws?

Are there any alternatives to chrome tanned latigo that are strong enough for a dog?

I am pretty unfamiliar with the tanning process but is it safe to use leather for making dog toys? If so what kinds should I stay away from? Worried mainly about chemicals from the tanning process being poisonous.

Haha yeah thanks. Basically the normal lining you see on dog collars. Not sure if I should put it in that forum. I have deer right now but interested in using lambskin. I like the look of this lining however so just try ing to do my research instead of spending more money first.

The khaki lining on the inside.

Yeah I push the pedal to start. The bottom part wants to move but not the top. I then give it a kick start if you wheel by turning the hand wheel and after a couple turns it takes off on its own and works perfectly.

Well thinking about it I would just need to sew one layer of latigo to a liner. Hoping not to take this as a loss. I did get the pulley off and working however it needs a bit of help. I have to turn the hand wheel to get it started moving. The problem looks to be from the hand wheel because it is tough to move it. Keep in mind this is a brand new machine. How do I loosen the tension on the wheel? It's been tough to move since I bought it.

I've found websites offering all but the peach buckle but most are overpriced. I really think we can say goodbye to peach. My guy who has 2 says that he got them before they were discontinued. I found a website that sells the peach hearts and horseshoes...at $23 a concho!
