A couple of days ago, when
Bodhi and I were on a walk, "Mr. Squirrel" ran out right in front of him.
Bodhi jumped hard to the end of his
leash, which popped. The sewing around the loop broke and I saw the material almost magically spooling off my wrist. Luckily I grabbed it with my other hand. The
leash had been my last dog'
s and it was probably ten years old.
Today I made a
new leash out of eight feet of 1 inch tubular webbing and a locking carabiner. I'm guessing it has a breaking strength of about 5000 lbs!
