Short Chain Leash with Leather Handle
A traditional leather and chain dog lead, combining a hand-cut Italian leather handle with English-made metal chain.
Measuring 65cm overall, this compact, fixed-length lead features a leather loop handle, a substantial chain section and a trigger clip for attaching to your dog's collar. It uses the same length of chain as our 90cm long handle version, with a shorter leather section for closer walking.
Handmade to order in our Derbyshire workshop, with a choice of riveted or hand saddle-stitched leather construction.

Length and Use
Our short handle leather and chain lead measures approximately 65cm (2ft 2in) overall, including the leather handle and chain.
The fixed-length design features a traditional leather loop handle and a metal chain section with a trigger clip for attaching to your dog's collar.
The shorter overall length makes this version particularly useful for walking your dog close beside you, including in busy areas where a longer lead may be less convenient.
Both versions of our leather and chain lead use the same length of chain. The difference is in the leather section, with this 65cm version providing a shorter handle arrangement than the 90cm design.
If you prefer a little more length, our long handle version measures approximately 90cm (2ft 11in).

Reviews
Sorry for the delay. The collar is lovely, well made. My only thought is, I wish I could have had the 2cm collar with the smaller chain that is unavailable. As my dogs are quite large, the 2cm wide collar would have been better than the 1cm, but they don't need the heavier chain.
Customer service was very helpful.
good communication to check the sizing will be right. very lovely finished product.
Sturdy and durable and importantly chew thru proof
