Every Dog Is Different... That's Why Handmade Matters

No two dogs walk in quite the same way. Some stroll calmly beside you, while others pull with enthusiasm or need something a little lighter to carry comfortably.

Every Urban Tails lead is handmade, allowing me to help you choose the option that best suits your dog's size and walking style. Whether you're looking for something lightweight for a smaller dog or a stronger lead for a larger companion, I'm happy to offer advice before you order.

If you're unsure which lead is right for your dog, just get in touch. I'd love to help you choose with confidence.

Which lead is right for my dog?

The best lead depends on your dog's size, strength and walking style. I offer lightweight options for smaller dogs and stronger hardware for larger breeds. If you're unsure, I'm always happy to recommend the best option.

Can I request a custom lead length?

Yes! Many of my leads can be made longer or shorter to suit you and your dog. Available lengths will vary depending on the fabric and pattern, so if you have a specific length in mind, please get in touch before ordering and I'll be happy to advise.

Are your leads suitable for strong pullers?

Can I order a matching set?

Yes! Most lead fabrics are also available as matching collars, bows, bandanas and poo bag holders, making it easy to create a coordinated set.

I'm still not sure. Can you help?

Absolutely! Every dog walks differently, so if you're unsure which lead would suit your dog best, just get in touch. I'll happily help you choose the right option before you order.
