Up Country collars and leads have been lovingly designed and handcrafted in New England since 1984. Designed for maximum strength, our leads are made with high-tensile nylon webbing and our custom solid brass snap hooks. Leads are stain and fray resistant, and are designed to last a lifetime. Each lead includes a solid brass D-ring near the handle to conveniently attach waste disposal bags, keys, and more. Comes in narrow or wide width too! Please check leads periodically for wear and tear, and never use an Up Country lead to tie out your dog.
