The Ancol Leather Dog Leads shown on this page are tough, hard wearing and water repellent, made from premium bridle leather that has a consistent grain and thickness, that are sewn for strength not riveted, using industrial nylon thread to securely attach the heavy gauge trigger to the lead.
Each leather dog lead is stitched using a unique flag pattern for extra strength around the trigger and is tanned with 100% natural fats oils, to help keep the leather soft, supple and water repellent. These natural oils will also help prevent any damage occurring due to the leather lead being folded and placed in a pocket or from the great outdoors, which could result in an inferior lead being replaced sooner rather than later!
The oils help prevent the leather, from becoming dry and brittle like a moisturizer, when cold these fat oils will sometimes migrate to the surface of the leather lead leaving a white wax like residue, that can simply be wiped away using a soft cloth.
The leather dog leads are available in tan, black and red in three width sizes, 12mm, 19mm or 25mm for small, medium and large dogs. Also available on this website are matching
leather dog collars to compliment your new dog lead.
Leather is a Natural material which has a number of benefits, it looks wonderful, is strong and water repellant. However if your dog is guilty of constantly chewing or enjoys swimming, it is advisable to purchase a synthetic fibre such as nylon for both your collar and lead, which are also available on this website.
