Fire Country Dreaming | Dog Bandana

Our double-sided tie-up Dog Bandanas are handmade locally on the Central Coast, Australia

Fabric:
Cotton

Artist: Lynette Nampijinpa Granites

An old man, 'lungkarda', of the Jampijinpa skin group, lived on a hill with his two Jangala sons. The old man would claim blindness and send his two boys out to hunt, while gone the old man would go and hunt and eat everything he found. One day his two sons hunted a Kangaroo after extensive tracking. Upon return they were told this Kangaroo was sacred to the 'lungkarda', this angered the old man terribly. The next time the boys went out the old man put his fire sticks to the ground, unleashing a relentless bush fire that chased them across the lands. Exhausted, the boys managed to outrun the flames, only to be consumed by the fire when it reappeared out of the blue-tongued lizard hole.

Style Guide:

The Cowboy Style - Fold down the top so the tip will touch the chest or the desired length. You can either hide or highlight the fold.

The Collar Style - Start at the pointy end and roll all the way up. Tie it around their neck so the knot is underneath. Fold ends under and tuck them into their collar. You should be able to fit two fingers for breathing room. 

The Cape Style - fold down to the desired length. Wrap it around your dog's neck. Tie a sailor knot by grasping one end in each hand, crossing one another. Pull it up, creating a knot.

• Please allow enough space to tie the Bandana with two fingers between your dog's neck and the Bandana.
• We recommend that your fur baby only wears any accessory while supervised.

Care Instructions:

• Machine wash or hand wash in cold water.
• Spot cleaned with a damp cloth to prolong the life of your Bandana.
