Orange is the color of animal protection awareness. The color is perfect for calling attention to and inspiring conversations about this most important topic. Handcrafted in Brooklyn, NY for adopted animals and their people, our dog leashes are hand-spliced to withstand hundreds of pounds of pull with the ends then "whipped" (an old nautical term) for additional durability. Nothing ages more beautifully than marine-grade rope and hardware. The individually-numbered, stamped tags on each FOUND leash remind us of the uniqueness of our pets, and allow us to keep track of the number of animals we have helped so far. Hand washable
