Custom Leather Leashes, Leads & Tabs

With today's high prices and poor quality everywhere, we know that your search for and purchase of a quality leather dog leash or lead is an important decision. It's probably the case that we're even more particular about our leather dog leashes, leather dog leads and leather training tabs than you are. We've been hand crafting leather dog leashes and leads for years for professional handlers, trainers, and dog enthusiasts around the world, as well as for ourselves. You won't find leather dog leashes anywhere made with better materials or by people who care more than we do. Whether you are a professional handler or trainer or a person with a working or companion dog who appreciates fine hand-crafted leather leashes that will last forever, look no farther. We hand cut each and every leather dog lead and leash straight and smooth. We bevel all corners, oil, buff and burnish each piece to make sure it will be your favorite from the first moment you hold it in your hand. We're pleased to be able to offer you a fairly comprehensive selection of Rust Free Stainless Steel, Brass, and Italian Bronze Snap Styles to suit any taste. With minimal care, your leather dog leashes, leads and tabs will give you and your partner years of comfortable service.

Like the Dogs, We Love Praise, Too!

The leash you made us just arrived and it's beautiful. Do you make belts for humans, or can you refer me to someone who does? I've lost patience with the poor quality of men's belts sold in department stores. Thanks!

We just got our beautiful leashes and collars and...well...I must say I'm amazed. I've bought a lot of leashes in my day on line, at dog shows and in pet stores. Believe me when I tell you that you have them all beat...the Amish, the show vendors and on line...everybody. Thank you for the wonderful work! I will definitely be back!

Chew Proof Cable Tie-Downs

Chew-proof cable tie-down

Keep both your dog and your favorite leather leash safe. Our tie-downs are constructed of non-chewable 5000 pound coated cable. Tie-downs can have bolt snaps at each end or a loop at one end and a snap at the other. With one end attached to your dog, the other end can be used to secure your dog to any appropriate tie hook or other secure object. An eye-bolt sunk into a post or wall stud works well. The coated tie down cable can be safely wrapped around the leg of a sturdy piece of furniture. Please be sure not to leave your dog unattended while on tie-down. We're glad to accommodate requests for custom length tie-downs.

To order your hand crafted leather dog leash, phone 1-405-701-2707
