For those of you who do not yet know, a few weeks ago, Simba became a model for the online dog accessory company, R 'n' D Paws, who hand-make fabulous Scottish Tartan accessories for dogs. It's his first modelling 'job', which is nerve-racking yet simultaneously exciting - more for myself than for him, as I challenge myself to be more creative with my photography than I've ever had to be before. We won our collar, bandana and matching bracelet set in a giveaway hosted by the company to celebrate the arrival of the new year. Ever since it arrived in early February, I've been flaunting their stunning products all over Simba's page - it's hard not to, when the bandana suits him so well, and stands out on his glossy white coat like he was born to wear it. I'm not usually one to pick anything red for my ginger dog - but in this case, I am certainly glad I did! The bandana is thick and incredibly well-made, and has withstood being washed three times in the last month due to Simba recently having developed a habit of coating himself in the natural essence of dead woodland creatures. The collar is strong too - the buckle seems to be holding up thus far which has previously been an issue for us - though the D-ring has not made it to today. The endearing little red heart button is a distinguishing feature for the brand, and I thought it was genius. Simple and distinctive, yet an adorable addition to each accessory. That isn't the best part about my collar and bandana set, however. What I appreciate most in an accessory, is it's ability to be washed, and to be able to survive through Simba's obsession with tearing through the holly bushes which we see on most of our local woodland walks. His R 'n' D paws set passes the 'Simba test', though we are yet to test how one of their bow ties will hold up with him. His set has even survived a dip in the lake, and hours spend at doggy daycare. I highly recommend R'n'D Paws for the stylish pooches who suit tartan and tweed. The quality of their accessories are second to none, the vibrant colours thankfully failing to fade despite multiple washes.
