I apologize for the autocorrect feature on my phone. Apparently, it is the autoincorrect for me, as lomeing foreward should have been looking forward.

thanks but the sling is cheap material and i dont think it would take a dye well. the dog collars are generally made of horse hide which doesnt take a dye well either.
