As 2009 comes to a close, it is time to look forward to 2010.  It seems that time is passing faster than ever and there is never enough time to do all that needs to be done.  As we reflect on the past year and plan for the new one, it is time to thank our customers and to remember how Country Brook Design started.

From the beginning of the business in 2003, the goal was to provide quality products and custom-made dog collars and leashes for our customers.   We continue to strive for this goal everyday by providing top-quality materials and fast service and shipping.  Country Brook Design is located in Moulton, Alabama.  The owners are Jim Witt and his wife, Chris.  The business was started in their home but, after a couple of years, more room was needed and Country Brook Design now has its own building.

The idea for Country Brook Design started when we were breeders of AKC-registered Miniature Pinchers.  Since these dogs are small, the only collars available for their small size were plain webbing or chains.  We were showing our dogs in obedience and confirmation trials and wanted attractive collars that were functional for our dogs.  We started designing and making our own collars, then started offering them for sale on the internet and Ebay.  Now we have our own website with information on many subjects available.

Our collars are custom-made with a core of nylon webbing, covered with durable, attractive fabric in many designs and with strong hardware.  The collars were becoming big sellers.  Then requests started coming in for the items we were using to manufacture our designer collars:  snap hooks, D-rings, triglides, contoured side release buckles and of course, nylon and polypropylene webbing.  At that point, the business grew so much and so fast that we stopped breeding and showing Min-Pins, but still have them as pets.

The success of Country Brook Design comes from the many great products and designer items we offer and our desire to treat our customers as we would like to be treated.  We strive to provide our customers, new and old, with as much information about our products as we are can before the sale and then fast delivery of their purchase.

As we go forward to a new year, we will continue to improve our business in every way that we can.  It is our goal to continue to search for great products that can be added to our inventory.  Tubular webbing and Jacquard ribbon are two examples of new items that were big additions for 2009.  Tubular webbing offered flexible strength for various uses and Jacquard ribbon brings elegance to many designs.   There were many additions in the hardware section that have benefited our customers who had specific uses for them.

Again, thanks to our customers from Jim and Chris Witt and the other employees of Country Brook Design.  We can be contacted at the phone number and email address on our website.  We look forward to serving you in 2010!
