SwaggerPaws 2.2m Waterproof Double-Ended Lead - Classic

Adjusting the length:

Fixed position D-rings: attach one carabiner to your dog’s harness and the other carabiner to a fixed position D-ring along the length of the lead. This creates a handle of sorts and shortens/lengthens the lead.

Adjustable D-ring: this D-ring slides along the length of the lead and can be used to adjust the lead around your waist or across your body. Attach one carabiner to your dog’s harness and the other carabiner to the adjustable D-ring. You can now walk your dog hands free. Please note, this is not suitable for particularly strong or pully dogs.

The adjustable D-ring is primarily for adjusting around your body, or creating an alternative handle length. The D-ring should not be used to attach directly to a walking belt or equivalent and is not designed to bear weight in this manner.

Attaching to walking belt: attach one carabiner to your dog’s harness, and the other carabiner to your walking belt. To adjust the lead length, loop the carabiner through a D-ring AND your walking belt.

Quick Cleaning:

After an adventure, rinse your lead and hardware with fresh water to remove dirt, mud, or saltwater.

For stubborn grime, use mild soap or pet-safe detergent with a soft cloth or sponge.

Carabiner Care:

Unlike traditional spring-loaded clips, our carabiners are designed with no exposed springs, making them more resistant to jamming from sand or grit.

Pro Tip - If you do notice grit in the barrel mechanism, a quick shake or rinse will usually dislodge it.

Important: Avoid forcing the carabiner open if grit is present in the barrel. Forcing it can permanently affect the auto-lock function. Gently clean and shake it out first.

Drying:

Pat dry with a clean towel or leave to air dry.

Storage:

Store your lead in a dry place to keep it looking and performing its best.

Longevity Tips:

Regularly check the hardware, webbing and stitching to ensure everything is intact and performing as it should.
