Why we love the Handler
It's a unique cross-over between basic hand-held control and essential hands-free tool
The Handler is a traffic-style dog lead that seamlessly transitions between hand-held and wearable functionality. As part of our Lead-All leash system, the Handler serves as the perfect starting point, offering a straightforward "clip in and go" handle. It's designed to hold the connecting ring of our Lead-All leash system at the ideal height above the dogs. It provides tight control and an immediate feel for how the system functions.
Unlike traditional traffic leads, the Handler features a premium-quality thumb clip for quick attachment to objects like vehicle door frames or chain link fences. This second clip also integrates with our wearable Leader to create a detachable handle, enabling you to customize multiple dog groupings on a single walk. For example, you can manage younger, more active dogs on the side with the detachable Handler and more mature dogs on the opposite side. And when you're comfortable, you can let go for hands-free convenience. Add the Handler to your TinyHorse dog walking kit for the ultimate in precision dog handling!

Care
Cleaning
🤚 Hand wash: soak lead in warm soapy water for 30 mins, rinse leashes thoroughly. Repeat for deeper cleaning. Hang to dry.
🧺 Machine wash: Put lead in a laundry bag, wash on gentle with cold water, hang to dry.
🧼 We recommend using mild detergents as heavy duty detergents have shown to effect the finish on some products. If you are unsure of the intensity of your detergent and want to extend the finish, soak clips in hot water only.
🌊 Rinse products after exposure to salt water.
Maintenance
🛠️ Ensure that you regularly soak the entire product. It's important to clear debris from the mechanics of clips for long-term use. Apply high-quality oil to swivel to extend the life of your lead - like a tire tread, this mechanism eventually wears away and the leash will need to be replaced. NEVER apply oil to trigger chamber as this may lead to unwanted unclippings. Regularly check the swivel and opening/closing mechanism of clips.
🦷 Never leave your gear unattended with dogs known to chew.
🔥 If a tear occurs in the fabric, use a lighter to cauterize the material from unravelling. Do this outside as fumes from melting nylon can be harmful. Replace the lead if you feel uncertain about its usability.
🚗 Do your best to protect gear from exposure to extreme conditions, especially those created during vehicle storage (such as direct light through windows or freezing temperatures).
