Luxuriously Soft
Bull-hide Fully Twisted
Leads We
are dedicated to providing handcrafted
quality braided leather products for your dogs.
There is no stitching or rivets used as these tend to pop or
break long before your lead is worn out. All of the products are individually crafted with simple hand
tools, with no mass production or machinery. We love the bull-hides as they are more stretchy and springy than the
latigos. They are also wonderfully soft and supple right from the beginning. That means there is no working in of the leather, that can takes
years of use. It is just immediately luxurious in your hands.
Our favorite leashes are leather ones that have been used from
training classes to walks to whatever. And, the braided ones are the best. But,
we never had a bull-hide lead before and cannot believe the difference.
Our Alfie (12½ years of age in this
photo) is sporting one of these gems. This particular lead is 3/4" wide
in the colors of Sand and Tobacco. It is the perfect width for larger
dogs. Be sure to click on Alfie to see a supersized view.
Bull-hide leads are simply stunning. They look good. They smell good. And, they
feel good. They are also strong and long lasting. So long lasting that you will
probably never need another lead again for your dog.
This color
combination of the colors sand and tobacco are simply perfect for light and
golden colored dogs. Honestly, all persons owned by a Golden Retriever need to
treat themselves to one of these fabulous Sand/Tobacco combo leads. We also like
twisting together two of the same color and have both pure tobacco/tobacco and
rich chocolate/chocolate leads.
The colors tobacco and black are wonderful for dogs such as
the Bernese Mountain Dog, Newfoundland, Saint Bernard, and more. Here are the 12
available bull-hide colors. Be sure to click on them to see their supersized
versions.

Barbara Peterson, winner
in our
2012 Take a Bite Out of
Cancer Raffle selected this lead as his desired prize. She
selected a Chocolate/Chocolate Bull-Hide Twist, 6 ft long and
3/4" wide. We actually have the very same one for our
Alfie as it is nice to have both solid and dual-colored
versions :-).
Rob Kessel, a winner in our 2012 Take a Bite Out of
Cancer Raffle selected this lead as his desired prize.
Let us tell you about Rob Kessel. Not
only does he volunteer and do fabulous work with CA's
Homeward Bound Golden
Retriever Rescue & Sanctuary, but he
bought many, many raffle tickets and just donated back some of
his winnings. You see he won the $100 store gift certificate and
decided on getting one of our FABULOUS
MUST-HAVE bull-hide
leashes. That left him $26 to spend but he just wanted the
foundation to have it back.
Here are his comments about his prize: "Here is Maddy with
her new lead. It's very comfortable. I walk a lot of the dogs
that pull hard and this lead almost feels padded."

Bold. Shy. Playful. Protective. No matter what your dog’s
size or personality,
Mimi Green has the perfect gear. This line is made by hand in New Mexico.

desired, on an array of luxurious
Swiss velvet collars. You
can even pick out an extra little decoration to make the collar all the
more special, such as a flower, star, or heart. And, these collars are strong and durable as well―made from nylon webbing that can withstand over 3,100 pounds of
pressure.
Why Choose Mimi Green

luxurious & washable Swiss Velvet, made in USA
►
A HUGE 12 wonderful velvet color choices
►
Option for hand embroidered Name and Phone Number

gauge D-Rings
► Contoured buckle that fit curves of dog's neck for greater

Martingale Collar Option These collars are helpful for dogs that have heads that are
smaller than their necks like greyhounds, whippets, pugs, Wheaton
terriers, and Jack Russell terriers. When adjusted correctly the dog is
never choked, but the collar stays snug around the dog's neck until the
pressure is released. The collar works like this:
Loosen the collar diameter with the
tri-glide and slide the collar around your dog's neck.
Tighten it up with the tri-glide to
the correct size.
Attach your leash to the collar's D
ring.
When the dog pulls, the loop up front
on the collar will tighten so your dog cannot escape
their collar.
