These amazing handmade leads from Jolly Hounds are beautiful, soft and plastic free! All of the leads are all 12mm thickness which I think is the perfect size and ideal for most breeds over 10kg (so if you think you want thinner/ticker ones please let me know!) They are hand made by Jolly Hound with natural cotton rope which are so soft, so if your dog tries to take you on a walk, it won't be rough or scratch at your hands!
As your rope collar/lead has been hand dyed it is only recommended that you use a damp cloth to remove and dirt from the cotton fibres. Washing your collar/lead in a bowl of hot soapy water will clean it better, however it will remove/dilute the vibrant colour. Dark colours fare better than lighter shades.
"Jolly Hound is run by me, Chaan - the designer and maker of the Jolly Hound pet products. I started my professional design journey at University, creating womenswear clothing and knitwear. After obtaining my BA in Fashion, I changed paths in 2012 when I got my first dog - Denzel, a French Bulldog, a breed that I'd adored ever since seeing one in a pet shop window in Spain over 10 years ago. A few years later (and 3 more Frenchies!) I decided to combine my two passions - my dogs and designing to develop the brand Jolly Hound, which highlights my love for handmade dog accessories and hand dyeing . It mixes my skills in design, pattern cutting and textiles along with a desire to ensure my dogs are always looking fabulous! I make almost everything in the shop myself, from the splicing the rope, hand dyeing it, to painting the toy boxes. I also make the BioThane/vegan leather collars and leads. Our new harnesses are designed by myself, specifically to co-ordinate with the rope leads. The manufacturing of these has been outsourced - simply because I haven't got enough time or that many hands to make them aswell!" SHOP THE RANGE
