What sets this lead apart from others on the market?
When Martine became disabled and had to use a Mobility Scooter she was searching for the perfect adapted dog lead for her beloved Assistance Dog Pinta. She couldn't find what she had imagined and so she decided to make it herself.
Martine soon realised that no mobility aid dog lead should be generic. The options that she looked at did not consider the varying heights of dogs in relation to chair fixing points and the dog's ideal placement in relation to the mobility aid.
This set is made from BioThane® coated webbing, making it durable & easy to maintain. It has the ability to transform and fit the needs of any user providing the ultimate convenience and reliability. It is the perfect accessory for wheelchair and mobility scooter users, giving a comfortable, safe and secure way to keep your dog by your side.
Made to measure with a double-ended lead, 2 bar clips so that your dog can easily switch sides and a traffic handle to create a functional lead when clipped to the double-ended lead, this set is designed for your dog's safety and ease of use. Please keep an eye on your emails after purchase for messages from us!
It also has the added extra of a Hands free lead attachment that makes this Dog Lead stand out from the rest. This lead provides:
- Hands free dog walking
- Traffic Lead for quick and easy grabbing (or counterbalance support for Assistance and Service Dogs that have been cleared to do so)
- Detaching double ended clip lead to attach to mobility aid (with personalisation available for words of your choice - Just select Personalisation and include the words of your choice in the 'Order special instructions box' as you go through check out)
- Across body hands free lead and traffic lead combined create a longline for sniffy time or training sessions)
- Everyday Dog Lead when you clip the double ended lead to the Traffic Handle.
We will guide you on measurements every step of the way to ensure that it is functional and safe for your dog.
Note, there are times when you might need to have a fixing point made on your wheelchair, mobility scooter or your Mobility aid. If you are unsure please email us before purchasing.
We recommend that your fixing point should be higher up than your dog and that your dog wears a harness with a front chest D Ring.
The length that you require will depend on your height and your build. We recommend 7 foot if you are shorter than 5 foot 8" and of average build. 8 or 9 foot for taller or/and plus size customers.
This lead is not intended to restrain your dog. We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by untrained dogs. If your dog does not keep good placement next to you we recommend that you consult a qualified Dog Trainer and we recommend looking into loose lead walking training.
