 No, we buy all of ours from Ugly Dog Ranch/ Wild Boar USA. We had thought about making some and aquired some fire hose but never did. Anyone near us that needs some hose can have it if they want it.

Firehose is good but can be very hard to sew through..I have some double thickness ones that are too stiff...suggest single thickness...good cheap collars

DJ,
 I made these a couple years back. The smaller one fits my gyps good. You dont save any money, but I like making things. I beleive I have a few extra pieces of hose if you are interested. I live in Baytown.

I made a few out of fire hose, made a few from nylon straps. Unless your doing because you like to make stuff it ain't a money saver really and the trouble is not worth it to me. i just order mine now from custom collars . But I wanna make some leather ones that are fully tooled some day just cuse
