When you first get your own puppy, there’s a laundry list of things you’ll need to raise them successfully. Unless you have a magic dog that is already trained, one of the must-haves is a sturdy leash for daily walks.
There are a few things that go into a great leash. You’ll need it weatherproof in case it starts raining or snowing while you’re outside and a tough enough material to handle the weight of your dog pulling.
While there are plenty of options at the store, it’s cheaper, faster, and more fun to make a custom rope dog leash yourself. Some of the things you’ll need are a rope, fabric dye, a bucket of water, hardware, and E 6000 glue.
Rachel Metz made a super easy to follow tutorial on Youtube that gives step-by-step instructions on how to take all of these materials and make the perfect dog leash. It’s inexpensive, and your canine companion will be eager to take it for a test run.
