Knot-a-Leash™ Rope Dog Leash

Swiveling and Auto-Locking Carabiner

Color

Selected: Obsidian Black

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)
Rope Diameter: 7 mm (Small), 11 mm (Large)

    Love this leash!

    Really pleased with the build quality and function of this leash. The swivel carabiner is great, the handle is super comfortable, and the extra slot for bags is a must. Well done, Ruffwear!

    reliable leash

    This leash is great for any time I take my dog out of the house. It is trustworthy and durable. The clip is easy to attach and gives that extra security!

    This leash saved my hands!

    With a high energy Aussie the regular thin flat leashes were rubbing my hands raw. With this leash the thick round chord is easy in the hands and the handle is easy to hold and reinforced. Love the locking clip to prevent his lead from randomly clipping to other things or popping open.

    Love this leash!

    This is the second time I have purchased this leash (the first one started fraying a bit in the middle but I had had that one for multiple years). My dog is pretty leash reactive and somehow manages to escape other, less secure leashes, but this leash makes me feel very secure about her not getting loose.
