About this Product
This 12" OD Green & Fuchsia backup safety strap gives you extra security when walking your dog. The collar companion attaches your leash to a second collar, so if one collar fails, your dog will be safe and not get away from you. The 5/8” swivel snap hooks are included in the length. This cord weight and length is good for medium to very large dogs.
All items are woven by hand with love from Commercial Type III 550 Paracord. These handmade leashes not only look cool but are designed to last for years. For those not familiar with 550 Paracord, it is very durable and strong. The 550 means it is tested to 550 lbs of pull strength. Leashes will hold up to very strong and feisty dogs - I've tested all my designs while walking dogs at a local German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois rescue, my last German Shepherd, and my pet sitting clients.
I use high-quality, heavy-duty hardware. All items are washable either by hand or in mesh bag in a gentle cycle in a washing machine. Air dry only.
This Way or That Way? Leash Company
Meet the Maker
This Way or That Way? Leash Company is owned and operated by me, Heather. It all started a few years ago, when my ex and I decided we were ready for a big change. Initially, we planned to section hike the entire Arizona Trail. We sold or gave away nearly everything we owned, rented out the house, and set off for adventure on the AZT. After that, we had no plan. The name ‘This Way or That Way?’ came from a couple things - the fact that our adventure kept taking unexpected turns, evolving into more of an ‘Exploring the Southwest’ adventure, taking us beyond Arizona to Utah, New Mexico, and Texas. Also, if given the opportunity, that’s how dogs walk, letting their noses lead them ‘this way or that way.’
Making custom paracord dog gear began as a hobby and something to do during quiet days at camp. I’ve always enjoyed making things with my hands, whether it be crafts, cooking, or gardening. Growing up I would help my Mom make crafty stuff to sell at shows or help with her stained glass projects. I loved helping my Dad in his woodshop. I enjoy the smell of sawdust to this day because it reminds me of that special time with him. I’ve enjoyed various crafty hobbies over the years and was quickly hooked by weaving and braiding and knotting paracord. I made so many things for Baron, then for all my friends dogs. Gradually, others began to ask me for custom work and a business was born.
The same thing has happened with pet sitting. Word of mouth and more and more referrals have led me to add this as a second business, which I absolutely love. Before paracord and dog sitting, my background is diverse: retail at various levels, management in the corporate world, sales, and business ownership
I am now on my own and really grateful to be making a living doing what I love. I do still volunteer for a local rescue specializing in German Shepherd Dogs and Belgian Malinois. I’m active in the outdoors and enjoy hiking, camping, and backpacking as much as I can.
