For doggie parents who want eco-friendly and ethical dog leads, our jute leads are ideal as they are soft, strong and made from sustainable plant-based rope and twine which is made in the UK.

They come in one size and so are suitable for dogs of all sizes, having a length of 1.5m (nearly 5 foot) and a width of 2.5cm. They feature a large strong steel snap hook for attaching it to collars and harnesses.

All our jute leads are individually handmade by us with great care and attention to detail. We construct them by first making a 4-strand plait with jute rope which we then interweave with the coloured jute twine. All of the stitching which secures the handle, the trigger snap and the d-hook is strong 3-ply jute twine, as is the coloured jute used for the decorations. This means we can be certain that all of the materials used are safe for your dog, and also super strong!

Whilst jute fibre is fully biodegradable, it is also very strong, breathable, hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial and UV-resistant.

We make our leads to order, using the colour that you have chosen. As each lead takes us 3 hours to make, please allow 2 working days after you've placed your order before we can dispatch.

Washing Instructions:
Machine washable on a short wash on a low temperature - to avoid fibre loss and to protect other items from the steel hook, it is best placed inside a linen/cotton bag (such as a pillowcase). 

Note on health & safety
Every single pet is unique, each with their own personality and character traits. So if your pet has a tendency to chew vigorously on their leads, please ensure that you regularly check them for any signs of damage. If any do show signs of damage they will no longer be secure and so must be disposed of to avoid any risks to the health and safety of your dog.

About Nature's Goodies:
We believe that our planet and every living creature on it is precious, and that organic, sustainable and responsible manufacturing is the key to achieving the best balance for us all.

For us, practising this ethos starts at home. We have numerous pets (fur babies and shell babies) and we try to only ever feed them organic species-appropriate food, and also try as best as possible to only provide them with natural healthy toys. But too much pet food and too many pet toys on the market are loaded with toxic chemicals. So we started making our own. 

And this is now why we produce a range of organic natural and healthy enrichment toys for our beloved pets, so that you too can give your beloved animals the very best.
In the near future we will also be adding a range of organic pet treats and also a range of natural biodegradable items for our gardens designed to enhance and encourage wildlife to thrive.
Thank you for visiting our shop! And do feel free to send us photos of your wee ones playing with Nature's Goodies toys! :)

Natural materials:
As so many of our pets like to chew their toys as they play, we only use natural plant-derived materials which, because they are digestible, will not cause any intestinal blockages.

Many of our materials are harvested from our own organic plot or foraged from natural open woodlands, from where they are 100% free from artificial fertilisers and chemical pesticides. And for those materials we have to source from suppliers, we are careful to buy ethical, sustainable and organic products.

Hand-crafted with care: 
All of our products are individually hand-made by us as we craft away in our little workshop. This means we can pay careful attention to detail in each and every item that we make. 

Eco-friendly: 
We take care of our natural environment, so the only materials that we forage are those which are naturally shed or those which are trimmed during practised woodland management processes that encourage our wild species to thrive. All materials that come from wild locations are very carefully cleaned with organic apple cider vinegar which removes any pathogens to ensure they are totally safe for your pets and our wildlife.

All of the packaging that we use is recyclable, and where ever possible, it is also biodegradable and compostable.
