Welcome

We Finally Had to Do It…

We held the line on our prices as long as we could. We knew our raw supplies were going up, but until we looked at the 2022 books we had not realized how much it was affecting our “bottom line”. As of January 2023, we have raised the prices on most of our handmade leather products.

Our actual cost of leather went up, but honestly not as bad as we feared it would. The real hit came on the brass pieces we use. When we can get the solid-brass parts we use, the prices have usually doubled or tripled from what we were paying when we had our last price increase in 2019 and when we have to use brass-plated – as much as we try to avoid the substitution – those pieces cost as much as we were paying for the solid brass just a few years back. Labor? That too has become a rare commodity. Our inbound shipping has increased not only because of the base rates, but because we are often having to source our raw materials from further away to maintain both our stock and quality.

Please accept our apologies, but know that we did shop our direct competition to make sure that we were competitive and in many cases less expensive whenever we could be. Our little leather shop here in the heart of Kentucky is still working hard to keep our customers satisfied.

Our Kentucky Big Dawg Dog Collars are back!

We managed to sell more Big Dawg Collars in the month after we took them off the site than the month before! We promise, it was just an oversight in the process of setting up the new website. They are back and better than ever.


Our NEW website is LIVE!

About the only bug left in the shopping cart is a random tendency to overcharge shipping by a penny. We can’t figure it out.

We still have a lot items to upload, but we have our best sellers here waiting for you. On this new site we are using a new shopping cart. It should simplify your shopping experience.

  • Take a look around.
  • See what you think.
  • Let us know if you encounter any glitches or find a mistake. You can always email our manager at anita@kyhorse.com or call or text us at 859-234-9905.

As mentioned, we still have a lot to do.

  • COVID-19 CLOSED OUR PHYSICAL LOCATION. Our little country shop was not designed to live up to the requirements necessary for safe shopping during the pandemic. We were forced to downsize and now all business is being done via internet and phone. We do offer pick-up for our local customers by appointment.
  • Orders are still being filled. Some are taking longer than usual due mostly to continuing disruptions in our supply chain. All of our vendors seem to be running on limited staff, limited stock, and we are experiencing shipping delays just like everyone else.
