This Lead is 1/2″ wide and has 100% Stainless Steel Rivets. If you want a truly waterproof dog leash, you want Stainless Steel. It’s silly to make a waterproof Biothane leash and then use plated hardware that will chip, tarnish and rust.
Because these are crafted from Beta Biothane & Stainless Steel, they are Durable, WaterProof & Odorproof. If you prefer 5/8″ wide, you can find them here: 5/8″ wide Slip Leads
The length you choose is measured from the tip of the handle to the D-ring on the other end. If you order a 48″ slip lead, and your dog’s neck is 16″, the total usable length of your leash will be 32″. The handle has 8″ of length for your hand to comfortably grip. (16″ doubled)
If you opt for the laser engraved rivets, your Keeper will also have an engraved rivet on both sides.
Why so great for rescue and transport dogs? We never know what these pups have lived through and what might frighten or startle them. Once spooked, they will backup, roll, try to get away and pull out of the collar. A slip lead insures this won’t happen.
If a dog gets startled and wants to escape by rolling or twisting or backing up, the slip lead tightens and provides you control while you calm your pup.
A PROPERLY MADE SLIP LEAD WILL IMMEDIATELY RELEASE TENSION WHEN NOT BEING PULLED ON.
The sliding d-ring on this slip lead glides smoothly as it loosens and tightens. The Keeper is snug and secure.
Afraid of passing cooties from one dog to another? No more. This is Hypo-Allergenic, Anti-Microbial, and Waterproof. Wash in soapy water, rinse and it’s dry in under a minute. Minimum tested pull strength of 500 pounds.

I will do everything possible to make sure you are tail wagging happy. Please measure carefully because this leash is made specifically for your order and is not returnable unless I made an Ooopsie.
A portion of profit goes to 501c3 Piedmont Animal Rescue or Hartmans Haven Dog Rescue These rescues never leave a Mother behind and don’t turn away the difficult dogs, the neglected and abused, the heartbreaking medical need cases.
Collars and Leashes have a laser engraved “Collars by Kitt” somewhere on their stainless steel hardware so you’ll remember where they came from. When you decide your other dog must have one or when your friends ask “Where did you get that?”, you won’t forget. 🙂
All Leashes and Collars are lovingly wrapped in PawPrint Tissue Paper and garnished with PawPrint Ribbon. If you have any questions or requests, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Thank you very much for visiting, Kitt
