Walk, run or hike with both hands free. Every hands-free dog lead in this collection adjusts around the waist or across the body using a BioThane® slider, giving you multiple loop positions for different situations.

Available in premium rope, lightweight paracord, luxury Greenwich Yarn and natural leather. All customisable by colour, hardware and length. Handmade to order at the Oxford studio.

Popular with runners, cyclists, hikers and anyone who has ever tried to drink a coffee while a dog lead cuts off circulation to three fingers.

Frequently asked questions

What is a hands-free dog lead?

A hands-free lead is worn over the shoulder or around the waist, leaving both hands free for running, hiking, cycling or pushing a buggy. The lead has a slider that adjusts to multiple loop positions for different uses.

How does a Green Dog hands-free lead adjust?

Every hands-free lead uses a BioThane slider running on the lead itself, which lets you set the loop wide enough to wear across the chest, narrow enough to fit a waist, or extended to a standard handheld lead length. No buckles to undo.

Who is a hands-free lead best for?

Runners, hikers, cyclists, dog walkers handling multiple dogs, parents pushing buggies, anyone with a free coffee hand to protect. Also useful for owners with grip or wrist issues, the load sits across the body rather than on the hand.

Which material is best for a hands-free lead?

For everyday active use, the customisable rope hands-free lead is the most popular. For luxury and signature pieces, the Greenwich Yarn version. For wipe-clean ease and water dogs, the BioThane version. Leather suits country use and ages well.

Are Green Dog hands-free leads made to order?

Yes. Every hands-free lead is built in my Oxford studio after you order, in your chosen colours, hardware and length. Dispatch is 2 to 6 working days.

Every piece tells you something about who made it.

Green Dog is not a brand. It is a studio. One person, one workbench, one standard. Every collar and lead is made by hand in Oxford — tested, measured, finished. You are not buying from a supply chain. You are buying directly from the person who made it.
