Our large dog leashes are made with genuine Super Heavy Beta Biothane in 5/8" (16mm) width (rated at 1000 lbs/ inch of width). The snap clips are available in regular duty or light duty. There are a triple row of rivets at both handles and snap clip for strength.
*PLEASE NOTE: The matte black plated metal hardware is a modern sleek fashion style coated hardware which can chip, giving it an edgy look but isn't waterproof. We will not replace, repair or guarantee this hardware - it's for show. :) The matte black rivets are coated solid brass and can mark/smudge due to finish but is easily washed off, just so you are aware. Dry thoroughly.
Biothane the 'MAGIC' alternative to leather. Beta Biothane is waterproof - easy to clean with soap and water.
It does NOT: mould, mildew, mark fur or absorb stinky dog odours. The strong polyester webbing is coated in PVC giving the look, feel and suppleness of leather. We construct, design, photograph, and hand-make all items in Canada.

"It's UNICORN leather!"
Materials and care
For Biothane:
Genuine Beta Biothane
solid brass or stainless steel hardware
end sealed in matching shade
rivets (either solid brass or nickel plate solid brass)
Cleaning is a snap! You can use soap and water for most dirt/salt water. Polish solid brass and stainless steel with a slurry made of white vinegar and baking soda (foamy but works great) and rinse off after. Even a disinfecting bleach dip (10%) is fine. Magic erasers work well for stubborn stains.
For Tartan ribbon or Nylon collars:
Genuine Tartan Ribbons from Scotland
strong nylon webbing
nickle plated hardware
thread for sewing
Cleaning of fabric type collars is usually done by hand or gentle cycle in the washing machine. Use gentle soap, no harsh chemicals. Let air dry fully.
Handcrafted with love, made to order just for you. No drop shipping involved.
Martingale, Chain Martingale- it's a pass-over-head style (tartans) or opens fully (Biothane); measure neck and largest part of head. Adjust to fit once on.
Side Release (also called quick release or side squeeze)- it opens fully, so just the neck size is needed to fit. Adjust the size then buckle around neck.
Breakaway- basically a side release that will pop open in any force is pulled on it. Mostly used in tag collars or cat collars.
Roller buckle (shoe buckle, belt style buckle)- opens fully, weave the end through the buckle and secure with tongue. Just need to have the neck size for it to fit, there is adjustment holes for sizes. We list size at the centre hole.
