Hand dyed and crafted in Found My Animal's studio in New York, their 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 solid bronze hardware.  Machine washable, line dry
