In search of a 20' training lead - Page 1

I've had a training lead for 8 years and I lost it last week.  As I was putting Drake in the passenger side, I saw it laying there and forgot to pick it up once I had him buckled in.  I'm pretty upset, it was the best piece of dog equipmemt I ever owned.  I think it was made of tire rubber, nice and sleek, thin, strong, never kinked or knotted, never caught on things, smallish brass clip that still worked like new.  I loved that line and I'd love to find another.  Does anybody know what I'm taling about and do you know where to find one?  I think mine was a 15', but I'd take longer.

Check this link.  I think that's what you are describing. 

They do have longer ones as well

Travels,

A friend of mine has started a dog equipment company. She can make a biothane lead for you in any size and color. I've seen some of her work at the club and she does a really nice job. I can give you her contact info. in  a PM if your interested. I would list her info here, but I'm not sure if she's ready for the potential impact of full internet business possibilities yet.

Pet Supplies Plus has nylon braided type 20' leads.

I have two longer ASAT/biothane lines.  I have an 8' (bought a 15' and cut it down a bit) I believe is from Hallmark K9 that is 3/8".  This is my obedience line and sometimes I use it for conformation.  Simple, thin, strong, feels a bit stiffer than some ASAT I've used but has never cracked. Has a small brass snap, no handle (actually I think it came with a handle but I pulled the stitchs out).  I also have the 33' tracking line from EliteK9, I think this one is 1/2" or 5/8".  It is slightly wider than the first line but also thicker.  This one feels more "rubbery", a bit softer, but it's a heavier line.

Thank you for the replies, it's biothane!  Now that I know what it's called, I'll be able to find what I need. 

We make BioThane lines in 3/8", 1/2", and 3/4".  The 1/2" and 3/4" are available in colors.  If you can't find the size/length that you would like on our website, feel free to contact us and we will custom make what you need.

I purchased a roll of mountain climbing webbing about an 1" wide and the clips I wanted to use. Cut it to the lengths I wanted and took it to a shoeshop. Its about $0.40 a foot, weatherproof and easy on the hands.
