ShyLoh Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I just got in some more paracord, and I will be making 3 more leashes for my dogs. I am very picky on clips I use, so I am looking for a specific type. However, I have no idea what these clips are called and was wondering if anyone here knew the name of them, or where I could buy them online. The one that is pictured I took from an old dog leash, so I have no idea where it is from. Any help would be appreciated! And for fun, a picture of the dogs the leashes will be for. haha .

petertmartin Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Probably more than one name and different across the world but I call them snap hooks or self closing hooks. I use carabiners with threaded locks for my collars and the same for my long lead which I made from plastic coated steel wire Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz51 Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Locking carabiners, as mentioned. (That clip of yours can fail). Plus spare necklines to a second spare collar - harness, and to the lead in case of breakages or worse slipping out. You can also get Swivel Carabiners or Swivel Grivel carabiner to prevent twising lines .. off of a canibelt, for handsfree walking. In the UK you must have all pets secured into a seat belt (clip on leads with attachments available on line) or, clipped in, on a harness always, not a collar, or in a secured crate. £3-5K fine possible.

robke Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 i would look into hoist clips, that is what that one looks like to me and I doubt that would fail we used to have a little one like that and it could lift 2,5 tonnes without breaking...

ShyLoh Posted July 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Thanks! I found some of the exact ones I am looking for using the name suggestions you gave in a google search. I found them on a site called Aliexpress. I love these clips. They are easy to use and stronger then the basic eye bolt snaps, in my opinion. I have never had any issues with them. I will be placing an order for a few of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
