The Knot-a-Leash™ is a classic climbing-inspired leash that takes design and durability cues from the crag to create a strong connection with your canine. With supple, reflective kernmantle rope, a comfortable tubular webbing handle, and an auto-locking carabiner, it's the leash that'll go the distance from the epic to the everyday.

The tri-action, auto-locking carabiner not only creates a secure connection, but it also swivels to create a twist- and tangle-free experience. Lift, twist, and open to engage the locking mechanism on the carabiner.

The strong rope core in the Knot-a-Leash™️ is made from repurposed remaining yarns, which helps reduce impacts from disposal, recycling, and material production.

Complete the kit with the matching Knot-a-Collar™.

Rope Length: 5 ft (1.5 m) (Small and Large)

    Our favourite leash!

    This was our second knot-a-leash. We thought it was finally time for a refresh after our last one got skunked. Lasted nearly 10 years. Our favourite style of leash by far.

    Great Responsive Leash

    This leash has just the right about of flexibility to allow our dog to move and smell what is around us, but still keep him close to me. I love the new locking carabiner design too.

    Stands the test of time

    I use this with my 65lb standard poodle and not only does it look stream-lined and handsome, it functions well and is built to last.

    Our favorite leash to date!

    We recently lost one of our knot-a-leashes and attempted to substitute it with one for our local pet supply store and it just wasn't the same. This leash is perfect for us and our active dogs. The length, clip style, material, waste bag holder, everything just works. Please do not discontinue this style of clip!
