The Original Adjustable Rope Leash. Handcrafted in our studio in New York. Our dog leashes are hand-spliced to withstand hundreds of pounds of pull with the ends then "whipped" (an old nautical term) for additional durability. Fixed on the ends are our original marine-grade solid Italian Bronze Bolt Snaps designed for our rescue pups big and small. Nothing ages more beautifully than marine-grade rope and brass hardware. The individually-numbered, stamped tags on each FOUND leash remind us of the uniqueness of our pets, and allow us to keep track of the number of animals we have helped so far. Wear this leash multiple ways- here are a few examples: 1. Hands-free, around the waist 2. Make a handle by clipping to the O-rings 3. Walk two dogs and form a handle with a simple knot in the center Hand washable, line dry
