and

fancy  wet  coats

Welcome to Terrapin Craftworks Handcafted Braided kangaroo Leather Show Leads, Collars and Fancy Wet Coats website.

Whether you are an owner handler or professional handler you know the importance of having the right show lead. Impression is everything!

These custom made leads can be used for Conformation, Obedience or Agility. The design possibilities are endless... you can choose your own custom colours, length and beads.

These leads are made with strong, kangaroo lacing with a 150lb test core line in the middle of the lead to prevent stretching and increase strength. Kangaroo leather is much stronger than cow skin, it becomes buttery soft with use without compromising it's strength. We have used our custom braided leashes with our 90+lb male malamutes without any problems at all. Our leads are used by many different large breeds including Rottweillers, Leonbergers, Cane Corsos and many more.

We also have leads and collars designed for toy breeds with a flat braided centre piece for comfort.

Terrapin Craftworks was established in 2007, over the years we have made 5,000+ braided kangaroo leads. We have been breeding champion Alaskan Malamutes since 1990 and have recently added a few Salukis to our household.

We make handcrafted custom fancy wet coats, they are available in 5 different colours.

They do NOT make your dogs coat wet, they will keep your dog nice and chilled for hours. Prices start at $48 up to $118+. They come in a variety of fancy fabrics and colours.
