What is a rope split or double lead?

A rope split or double lead allows you to walk two dogs at once using a single handle. It features a central grip and two rope arms with snap hooks that attach to each dog’s collar or harness, giving you better control and reducing tangling.

Are these double leads suitable for strong or large dogs?

Yes. Made from durable PPM rope and stitched with heavy-duty thread, these double leads are designed to withstand pressure from strong or large dogs while remaining lightweight and comfortable to use.

Is the rope lead weatherproof?

Yes. PPM rope is weather-resistant, low weight, and fast-drying. It resists water, mould, and sun damage, making it ideal for everyday use in all seasons.

How long is the rope split lead?

Each rope split lead is approximately 90 centimetres in total length including the handle. This keeps both dogs close enough for controlled walking without limiting movement.

What hardware options are available?

You can choose from Brass, Rose Gold, Stainless Steel, Black, or White snap hooks. Each hardware option is selected for strength, durability, and visual appeal to match your preferred style.

Is this lead available in different rope sizes?

Yes. You can choose between 8mm and 10mm rope diameters. The 8mm is great for smaller or medium breeds, while the 10mm is ideal for larger dogs or those that pull.

Can I customise the whipping colours?

Yes. We offer a wide range of 44 colours in paracord, leather, eco-leather, and PPM rope. You can choose one, two, or three colours to create a custom look that reflects your dog’s personality.

Are the leads handmade?

Yes. Each rope split lead is handmade to order in Yorkshire. We bind and stitch every section with care to ensure a secure, stylish, and durable finish.

Can this lead be used with any dog collar or harness?

Yes. The snap hooks on each lead arm attach easily to most collars and harnesses. They are designed to be secure, reliable, and easy to clip on and off during walks.

How do I clean my rope double lead?

To clean, simply rinse the rope with warm water and mild soap if needed. Let it air dry naturally. The materials are resistant to water and dirt, so they clean up easily after walks.

Why PPM rope for our dog leads?

Because you need a lead that will not smell, will not stay wet, feels good in your hand and stands up to daily use. PPM rope is lightweight, hydrophobic and colourfast, so it is perfect for rain, rivers and everything in between.

What you will feel and notice

  • Polypropylene does not take on water, so smells do not sink in.
  • Mud and sand rinse straight off. Drying takes minutes.
  • Silky yet secure, even on long walks.
  • Tightly bound ends resist fraying and keep the lead looking sharp.

Soft, lightweight, stink resistant and fast drying, with serious hardware and custom options to match your dog and your style.
