How I work

  • Hardware is guaranteed for twelve months. If a buckle, clip or ring fails in that time, send it back and I’ll repair or replace it, and I cover the postage.
  • After that, send it back anyway, however old it is. I’ll replace the worn parts at cost and tell you what it needs before I touch it. It comes back cleaned, checked and boxed.
  • If it isn’t adjustable, I check your measurements with you before I make it.
  • Message the shop and it’s me, Ed, who replies. Usually within a few hours.
  • Custom pieces aren’t refundable for a change of mind, but size exchanges and amendments are available. If I got it wrong, faulty or not as described, I cover the postage both ways; if the measurement turns out not to suit your dog, it’s yours.

Sizing & measuring+

• Choose the length that suits how you walk.
• Length is measured end of handle to the clip.
• For close control, go shorter (great for town walks).
• For more freedom, size up for relaxed walking.
• Pairing with a matching collar? Measuring guide: https://www.greendog.pet/pages/measuring-guide
Please note: as each piece is handmade, allow a small tolerance of up to 1/2 inch in finished sizing.

Hardware & construction+

• BioThane® strap (waterproof, odour-resistant, colourfast)
• Quality hardware components (snap hook, O-ring where included, fixings)
• Handmade and finished to order in Oxfordshire for a clean, durable result

Care & durability+

• BioThane® is made for everyday use.
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth (mild soap if needed)
• Dries quickly and doesn’t hold odour like fabric can
• If it’s been in salt water, rinse and dry the hardware after
• Check hardware periodically, especially if your dog pulls

Delivery & lead time+

Your order enters the making queue immediately. Current lead time is 2–6 working days before dispatch.

All UK orders ship tracked. Free UK mainland tracked shipping on orders over £55.

Returns & exchanges+

Made to your measurements. Because I cut this to the size you give me, it isn't covered by the usual 14-day change-of-mind right — I can't resell it, so I can't take it back simply because you've changed your mind. If the size isn't right, message me: size exchanges and amendments are available. If I got it wrong — faulty, damaged, mis-made or not what you asked for — I cover the postage both ways. If the measurement turned out not to suit your dog, I'll still sort it with an exchange or an amendment, and the postage each way is yours. Either way, message me — I'd far rather talk it through than have you post anything. If anything arrives faulty, damaged or not as described, that's on me — repair, replacement or refund, and I cover the postage. The full position is on my returns and guarantee page.

I'd far rather spend ten minutes with you before I start than have to alter it afterwards, so read the measuring guide, and if you're unsure about anything, email me first: hello@greendog.pet. The person who made it will reply.

About this piece

BioThane® Dog Lead | Waterproof & Wipe-Clean | Customisable

Built for real weather, real terrain and real dogs. This BioThane® lead is the one you reach for when you know the walk is going to be a muddy one.

BioThane® is not just water-resistant, it is waterproof. It does not absorb mud, salt water, or smell. After a river crossing or a roll in something you would rather not name, it wipes clean with a damp cloth and is ready for the next walk in minutes. No machine washing. No drying time. No deterioration.

Each lead is handmade to order at the Oxford studio. Cut to your specified length, finished with the snap hook you choose, and checked before dispatch. Hardware is load-tested by the suppliers I buy it from, the same standard applied to every Green Dog piece regardless of price.

Customise the colour, length and hardware finish. Choose from trigger snap, bolt snap or other hardware options depending on the product configuration.

Works perfectly with the BioThane® Collar for a fully waterproof, matching set.

This design is part of my BioThane waterproof dog collars and leads collection, all handmade to order in Oxford.

Excellent quality!

Really love the quality and versatility of these leads. With a Labrador needing several walks a day …these are perfect, so it doesn’t matter how wet it’s been, collars and leads are perfect. Great range of colours!

High quality, stylish and need mini version

Love the concept of this company. Really great high quality, beautiful, unique and the most important - practical- items.
But the hardware is just way too big for my dog. It would be amazing to add option for reduced size hardware and even width and weight of leashes.

Hi Paige, thank you for the kind words and for supporting a small handmade brand. I really appreciate it.

I’m sorry to hear the hardware felt too big for your dog. Everything I make is built to order and smaller hardware, lighter buckles, narrower BioThane and thinner rope are all things I can adjust if someone reaches out beforehand.

If you ever want a slimmer or lighter version, just drop me a message and I’ll sort it. That’s the beauty of making things by hand — there’s usually a way to fine-tune the details.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts and aplogies I hadn't replied sooner.
Ed (& Boris)
