Wheelchair Leash

This listing is for a wheelchair leash made of 3/4" biothane. The handle on these leashes is made by clipping the snap into the o-ring so that it can be clipped onto a wheelchair. The fixed o-ring is 12" away from the clip, and it also has an adjustable o-ring that can be slid along the body of the leash to make it shorter. 

These leashes are great for more than just being used with mobility aids. Because of the adjustable ring, the length can be changed depending on what works best for the environment you're in. The handle can be clipped around just about anything- from your belt so it can be used as a waist leash, to clipping it around your chair at an outdoor restaurant. 

HARDWARE
The available hardware choices are nickel plated trigger snaps, stainless steel bolt snaps, solid brass trigger snaps and bolt snaps, and aluminum auto-locking carabiners. Solid brass and stainless steel are rust proof, so if your leash will be repeatedly exposed to water, they would be the best hardware choices! Please note that brass will darken as it develops a patina. This is a normal occurrence and does not affect the hardware. 

To maintain, simply wipe with a wet paper towel, or wash with soap and water. Avoid wetting plated hardware as it is not rust proof, and it should be dried after water exposure.

NOTE

While biothane is the perfect material for dogs who are frequently exposed to water, it should not be used in chemically treated pools. Chlorine can cause the biothane to crack. Biothane should not be used with a flea collar. Collars should be removed when a topical flea treatment is administered, and may be replaced once the treatment has fully dried. As with chlorine, flea collars/treatments can cause biothane to crack. This does not happen in every instance, but be aware that it is a possibility and these things should be avoided for the longevity of your gear.
