Cattle Dog Whipworks is a one-man shop, producing whips from synthetic materials, mostly Nylon, though I am working on a Nylon/Dacron construction that may be available soon.

My purpose is to enjoy the making, enjoy the cracking, improve construction methods, and improve the body mechanics and sense of rhythm required for good whip performance. All my cattle dogs have the goal of keeping me from my work in order to make up some work for them.

I also enjoy making some of the accessories that go along with whips. The impetus for publishing this website, in fact, was through the encouragement of a friend of mine who thought I should be selling my fids right away.

At the moment, I am not taking special orders. Everything here is sold “off-the-shelf”. That is, I make what I am interested in making, then sell it. If you really want something particular however, feel free to contact me and ask. It just might turn out that what you want is something that I find interesting.

Yours,

Jonathan
