#4 Tell us what you'd like
Any feature you've seen on our leash designs is an option! Write-in the features you'd like to see on your full-custom designed leash.
-
Tell us what you need
- Would you like a multifunctional style with fixed O-rings to clip the handle-end?
- How about extenders? Swivels? Detachments? Other special features?
- All in one multi-dog leash?
- Special assembly requests?
- Whatever you like!
-
Quick Grab handle
- can be at the dog-end just above the leash snap, or a different location on the leash measured from the dog end
- middle of handle will be at specified measurement
- grab handle loops within 18" of the leash snap will be made at the dog-end
-
Hands-free options
- Wear over your shoulder, like a sash - an open handle style with a fixed O-ring are best for this style
- Around the waist, like a belt - it can be adjustable or a specific size
- Most hands-free options utilize a bolt snap at the handle-end that clips to an O-ring to form the cross-body loop. A fixed length loop for over-the-shoulder is possible, too.
Measuring for features
Measure the distance starting at the dog-end of the leash. Then, you can specify the location of features either measuring from the dog-end, or the distance between the features.
How to measure:
- Use an old leash or rope to try out the configurations you'd like.
- Mark locations for rings, etc. with tape (Scotch tape or masking tape works great)
- Use a measuring tape to measure the distance
For example, perhaps you want to wear the leash hands free, and have enough leash so your dog can lay down, THEN shorten the leash when they stand up.
- measure the length of the cross-body segment; generally people like the connection to the dog-end segment to start at their hip
- determine length for the dog's segment - measure from your body to the dog's collar
- shorten the dog dog end to the desired position, then measure again to the dog's collar
#5 How will you use your leash?
Finally, tell us more about you and your dog and how you plan to use the leash.
Help us understand the purpose of the request will help us determine the best way to make your leash. If you're looking for a special leash for a specific activity, let us know!
Modify vs. Full-Custom
Do you really need a full-custom leash?
It may be simpler and less expensive to modify a BLD leash design.
If you like one of our existing leash designs and only need minor changes to make it just right for you, feel free to call or email us to discuss. We're here for you and are happy to assist finding the best option to get you what you need.
For example, if you love the 8-Way, but need it to be 8 inches longer on the middle section, and want to change the leash snap hardware, that can be done as a modification to the 8-Way.

The only vegan material that performs like leather.
Brahma is a coated webbing material constructed with poly webbing on the inside and a durable PVC coating on the outside. This material can take a beating through brush, muck, and saltwater.
Key Benefits:
- Ideal for any climate, weather condition, or activity
- Stays soft, never gets sticky or tacky
- Feels similar to leather with a nice grip and suburb durability
- Snag-free, knot-free, and won’t pick up dirt or brush
- Doesn’t stink, absorb odors, or get slimy
- Maintenance free and easy to clean
Originally developed for the horse and ranch industry, it's incredibly strong and will last a lifetime.
Caring for Brahma: Requires nothing special. Feel free to store it in your vehicle: it's unaffected by intense summer heat! It's super easy to clean, just dip it in a creek to rinse off the grime, or wash with soap and water (dish soap works great).
P.S. Coated webbings are sold under different brand names, like Biothane© and Brahma soft grip. We prefer the texture, durability, and performance of Brahma soft grip.

BLACK LATIGO leather
Latigo tanned specifically for quality horse tack and premium pet products and has a high tensile strength. Your leash will start out a bit firm yet flexible and will very quickly soften and will continue to get better with age. The rich black color is drum dyed during tanning (rather than just dyed on the surface). Made in North America from select US steer hides. Stainless steel (silver color) hardware is standard.
English Bridle Leather in LONDON TAN
English bridle has a supple, satin-smooth finish and satisfying hand feel that is simply unmatched. London Tan, cherished in the 19th century for the finest horse tack, ages to a warm patina while keeping its lighter brown and orange tones. This full grain leather is 100% veg tanned with no metals or harsh chemicals. Made in North America from select US steer hides. ("English" refers to the style of tanning rather than a location.)
Solid brass (gold colored) hardware is standard.
Caring for leather: Your BLD leather gear will last for many years and only get better with age. Leather is resilient, don’t be afraid to use it in daily life. A light coat of conditioner rubbed in like lotion keeps it healthy.
